- Price range
- P75 → P25 of asking — the middle half of listings at that age sits inside this band. Outliers above and below excluded.
- Down payment
- MAS Notice 642 LTV cap applied to the age's median asking: 30% when OMV is up to S$20k, 40% above. Max loan tenure 7 years. Rows marked * mix both OMV buckets — we display the conservative 40% figure so the quote never under-states what a luxury-OMV listing at that age would actually require.
- Availability
- High when this age's listing share is ≥1.5× the model's uniform expectation, low when ≤0.6×, medium otherwise. Model-relative, so an evenly-spread model lands all-medium.

- Brand reliability
- Consumer-survey composite — JD Power · WhatCar · Consumer Reports. Same score for every variant of a given make.
- Resale strength
- 100 − 3× annualised tangible-decay (COE-stripped). Fitted from each variant's asking-price-by-age regression then averaged at model level.
- Peer set
- Every same-segment model with ≥5 active PARF listings whose variants fit a depreciation curve. Practicality isn't plotted — it's a body-shape constant within the segment, so it would be the same for every dot.
- Quadrants
- The crosshair marks the segment median on each axis. Top-right (Safe Bets) is strong on both; top-left (Hidden Gems) holds value above what the brand reputation suggests; bottom-right (Bargain Buys) is well-built but depreciates fast — buy cheap; bottom-left (High Risk) is soft on both.

Verdict
What Car? 98.8% reliability rank 2/24 in 2024 family SUV class — among the most reliable mid-size SUVs in production. Hybrid (A25A-FXS + THS-II) is the cleaner side of the lineup; gas A25A-FKS carries 90% of complaints (transmission lurch on 2019 + coolant bypass valve leaks 2019-2021). Same matured Toyota THS-II hybrid family as Camry XV70 / RAV4 / Lexus NX 350h. Water leaks from roof racks and headlight seals on some early builds. 2019 worst MY for non-hybrid; 2021-2023 cleanest gas RAV4 picks.

What's good
- A25A-FXS hybrid (THS-II) with documented battery SOH — same matured Toyota hybrid family as Camry XV70 / Lexus NX 350h / Harrier XU80. 28.4 complaints/year vs 195.9 for gas RAV4 — the materially cleaner side of the lineup. The boring durable choice.
- Post-2020 gas RAV4 with all recalls closed via VIN — sidesteps the 2019 transmission lurch + 2019-2021 coolant bypass valve leak window. A 2021-2023 gas RAV4 with full Toyota service is the cleanest non-hybrid pick on the platform.
What to watch
- 2019 RAV4 with transmission lurch / hesitation at standing start — densest transmission complaint cluster on the gen. Software-fixable for most cases via Toyota TSB; without paperwork the symptom reproduces and signals the work is still pending.
- 2019-2021 gas RAV4 with unexplained coolant loss — coolant bypass valve leak pattern documented across the 2019-2021 window. Caught early it's a S$500-1k repair; ignored it leads to overheating + engine damage.

1 trimCommon questions about the Toyota Rav4
- How much does a used Toyota Rav4 cost in Singapore?
- Most used Toyota Rav4 on the market are around 7 years old, asking roughly S$75k–S$80k (typically about S$77k). That's the age with the widest choice — and the most sellers competing, so it's where you'll have the most room to bargain.
- How much does a used Toyota Rav4 depreciate per year?
- A used Toyota Rav4 loses value at a fairly steady pace — around 23% a year — with no real plateau. An older one costs less but keeps falling at much the same rate, so there's no single 'bargain age': buy on price and condition, not on timing.
- Is the Toyota Rav4 reliable?
- In our read, the Toyota Rav4 scores 90 out of 100 on brand reliability. That still varies by generation and how the individual car was looked after, so always check the service history before you commit.
- What should I expect to pay for a used Toyota Rav4 with a given mileage?
- It depends on the exact variant, age and mileage — a higher-mileage car should ask less. Use the price modeller on this page to get a fair-price range for a specific age and mileage, so you know what to offer.
- Where do these Toyota Rav4 figures come from?
- They're worked out from current used-Toyota Rav4 listings in Singapore — asking prices, mileage and registration years — not past transaction prices. We refresh them regularly, and we flag thin data rather than guess.
