There is one automotive manufacturer that has dominated the car industry in recent times. Of course, they're not the only ones, but Toyota has been making great strides in every department, whether it is hybrids or fully gasoline-powered vehicles. Some would argue that Toyota is the biggest name in the automotive industry, which means they would need some near-perfect vehicles to back that up. Well, it just so happens that the RAV4 Prime is one of the more sought-after vehicles in its lineup due to its versatile platform, reliability, and efficiency. There's a reason it sits at the top of the best compact SUVs on the market.

Here's How Much A Fully Loaded Toyota RAV4 Prime Costs

If you are looking to buy a new-for-you vehicle in 2024 but don't want to buy a new car, then used cars from automakers that have renowned reliability records, such as Honda, Lexus, and Toyota are generally a good place to start looking. In a world of rising prices, both on and off the road, keeping costs down is paramount for most of us. With the average price of a new vehicle in the U.S.A. costing around $47,000, looking at a used car, or one that is a few years old but is still equipped with modern technology, a lower asking price than a new car, plenty of space, and a frugal powertrain is a good option for a lot of us.

The 2023 Toyota GR Corolla Circuit Edition owned by Bryan Banks burst into flames on June 8. Apparently, something in the engine failed and by the time the fire department arrived, the car was a total loss.

Don’t worry, you can still order the Toyota GR Corolla with a manual transmission. We’d argue you should, though the GR Corolla’s new 8-speed Gazoo Racing Direct Automatic Transmission (DAT) — while it might subtract some driver engagement — adds a lot of appeal to a broader market. It’s part of a larger batch of changes for the 2025 model year, but the new transmission should help keep the super-fun hot hatch on sale for many years to come.
