Review of The 2015 Toyota RAV4 Including MPG, Specs, and Colors
·2 min read
The 2015 Toyota RAV4 was designed with comfort, technology, and safety in mind – all of this with up to an EPA estimated 31 mpg HWY. And now, it’s available at Markquart just north of Eau Claire. Read this review to see what features the RAV4 has to offer, and watch the video to see how some of the features work.
Getting into the new RAV4 is easier than ever with the smart key. As long as the key fob is within 3 feet of the car you can lock and open the door with the touch of a finger. Once you’re inside this crossover SUV, you’ll notice the heated front seats and the 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat. There’s even available dual-climate control – meaning, the driver and front passenger could individually control the temperature of their environment.
When it comes to entertainment, the 2015 RAV4 has you covered. The 6.1-inch touch screen allows you to control audio, navigation, and apps. With available Entune Premium Audio with Navigation and App Suite, you can access apps such as Pandora, Yelp, and iHeartRado. In addition to Bluetooth connectivity, RAV4 comes standard with a USB port and auxiliary jack. When your car is in reverse, the touch screen displays the standard backup camera. Once you shift out of reverse, the screen returns to where you left off.
If you’re going grocery shopping, the RAV4 has plenty of room with 38.4 cubic feet of space. Going for a longer trip? The back seats fold flat for even more cargo space. If your hands are full, you can use the available power rear liftgate. This features height adjustment that you can program for either your height, or your garage’s height. To top it all off, the available power liftgate comes with jam protection, so it stops if anything – or anyone – is in its way. Speaking of safety, the 2015 RAV4 comes with eight airbags, the Star Safety System, and available locking center differential for better traction in bad weather.
Watch the video to learn more about the RAV4’s engine, Toyota Care, and see Product Specialist, Jay Bouley, demonstrate the above-mentioned features. Then, stop in to Markquart Toyota to test drive the 2015 Toyota RAV4.

Congratulations to Parts Manager, Tom Jakowicz, on 25 years with Markquart!
Thank you, Tom! Tom Jakowicz has been at Markquart for 25 years and has loved every minute of it. He started his career at the Markquart Motors location as a parts associate, and after working there for three years, he moved away from the area. Once he returned to the Chippewa Valley, he was working for a local parts store when he was recruited to join the team at Markquart Toyota, and the rest is history.
For Tom, the best part about working at Markquart is the customers and coworkers. He loves helping people, and there’s never a day that he doesn’t feel like coming to work. Over his 25 years, Tom has made a lot of memories; one of his favorites is moving into the new and improved Markquart Toyota building on Commercial Blvd.
Outside of work, Tom enjoys spending time outdoors with his wife Roxann and daughter Rayna. He loves to bow hunt and holds the record for the biggest whitetail buck ever shot with a bow in Chippewa County. An interesting fact is that Tom knows how to play the guitar, and has even played with local rock bands in the past.
We are lucky to have someone as kind and knowledgeable as Tom on our team. Join us in congratulating him on his 25 th anniversary! CONGRATULATE TOM
