In my experience, the 2015 and 2016 models have been the most reliable. Make sure to check for any potential recalls and have the vehicle inspected by a trusted mechanic before purchasing.

I have owned a 2018 RAV4 for 2 years now and have had no issues with reliability. Just make sure to do regular maintenance and it should last you a long time.

I would recommend avoiding the 2006 and 2007 models as they have had some reported issues with the transmission. Do your research and don't be afraid to test drive multiple years to see which feels most reliable to you.

I have had my 2012 RAV4 for 6 years now and have had no major issues. Just make sure to keep up with regular maintenance and it should last you for years to come.
