safety features galore. This Rav4 has 27 horsepower more than the 2018 version, making it just a bit more powerful for those who love speed. We spoke with Everett Ulmer, a sales manager at Westbury Toyota, who explains why Long Islanders need to take a look at the 2019 Rav4.
Q A
difference and the cost is really low. It’s only about $1,000 more to get the same car, but in the hybrid version. Believe it or not, the hybrid version has a little more power than the gas version. The ride is a little smoother and has a little more pep.
Everett Ulmer
What’s new about the Rav4 for 2019?
It’s completely restyled. There’s all-new technology, including Apple CarPlay. There are new safety features. The Toyota Safety Sense is the new standard on all of the cars. They have cold weather packages, so you have heated seats and steering wheels on the lower trim models, which you could only get on the fully-loaded, limited and platinum vehicles. They completely revamped it and it looks great. The miles per gallon is high, so it’s tremendous.
Q A
What are the differences between the different versions of the Rav4?
There are gas models and hybrid models. The great thing about what Toyota did for the hybrid and the gas models is that a lot of the features are the same. It’s just the engine
Q
What makes this stand out compared to the rest of the Toyota fleet?
A
The styling. Toyota stepped up their styling over the last five or so years. All of the new models make the styling really stand out. Toyota still stays true to their tradition. But they’re finding a way to make the cars fancier and stand out more.
Q A
Which version of the Rav4 is the most popular?
The XLE is best. On the XLE model, there’s a big swing where you can get one that’s trimmed down, but still get a lot of stuff. You can still get a bunch of features in the car and at a reasonable price. They have the cold weather package. On the XLE model, you can get heated leather, heated leather steering wheel, power-driving seats, which you’d usually have to go to the limited model to get. Customers used to have to spend an extra $6,000 to $8,000 to get that, but now they don’t have to spend the couple of extra thousand.
Q
What makes the Rav4 stand out compared to the SUV competition?
The 2019 Rav4 comes in a variety of colors, and customers can design their new ride online.
A
I would say Toyota’s reputation is what makes the Rav4 stand out. Toyotas are known as one of the most reliable brands. They stay true to that. They build a quality car and it looks great as well. The lines on the car looks great. Toyota used to have a boxy-look to it, but now, it looks sleek.
Q A
What is the Toyota Safety Sense?
Obviously, Toyota’s core belief is safety. The customers need to be protected in the cars. In 2017, Toyota came out with that technology and made sure every car in the lineup had that, including the new Rav4. You have the dynamic radar cruise control, which allows the car to monitor the distance between two vehicles, so you’re keeping your distance and increasing and decreasing speed accordingly. You have the automatic high beams, which gives you enhanced visibility. With autonomous cars coming up, a lot of features in cars are starting to have the ability to do things like that.

A Look Back At The 2019 New York International Auto Show

oncept cars. Compact vehicles. Trucks. Vans. SUVs. Sedans. Racecars. You name the car and it was in Manhattan.

Auto Show at the Javits Center was a smash hit. Some manufacturers unveiled brand-new cars, while others wanted to give fans a blast in the past with nostalgic vehicles. When all was said and done, the show, which spanned from April 19 to 28, was the place to be for automobile aficionados. To kick things off, Porsche revealed the all-new 911 Speedster, one of the lightest and quickest cars on the market. It was followed by a wild unveil from Subaru, which literally created a mountain in the middle of the Javits Center to show how durable its 2020 Outback is. The Outback comes with a sporty turbocharged engine, all while keeping Subaru’s traditional exterior beauty. Some manufacturers made sure to have fun with attendees. Chevrolet had several futuristic concepts, including virtual reality tours of its testing facility in Michigan. But that wasn’t all. The bow-tie gang also had an interactive station set up to showcase its driverless technology. Set up like a radio control car track, Chevrolet had bodyless cars with a remote control for fans to drive around a circuit. The track was dense, complicated and tough to maneuver. Fans had no clue they were actually being timed until after the fact, when their score would pop up on a screen behind them. Suddenly, a member of the bow-tie
team would click a button and the car would easily slide through the course, raising all sorts of questions about the amazing self-driving technology that will soon be featured in their street vehicles. Ford even partnered with The Lego Group to have younger fans join in on the fun. The blue oval had life-size racecar drivers made out of Legos, as well as miniature ones. Kids made their own Lego Ford Performance buddy, and parents joined in on the fun, too. Of course, Toyota had to showcase its ingenuity. The Japanese auto maker opted to show off its cars of the future. Not only did it feature its NASCAR racecars—a Camry and a Supra—but Toyota had a vehicle there that you’d think is a mirror. When passing by this concept machine, its shiny rims, sleek yet awkward look made attendees ask just about every Toyota worker what in the world it is. Toyota also debuted a new-look Highlander, creating a fresh design for one of the manufacturer’s most popular SUVs. One of the most viewed exhibits at the auto show was Nissan’s “Ultimate Dream Garage,” featuring none other than the legendary Datsun. Datsun, the American version of Nissan in the late-1960s to early 1970s, took the nation’s streets by storm. It all started with the 1969 launch of the Z series in New York City. This sports coupe was cheap compared to other international sports cars. Its 240Z was a highlight amongst car collectors, and it still is to this day. The Datsun was rare, selling only 16,215 in America in 1970 and 33,684 a year later, according to Hagerty, a classic car valuation organization. And that made it even more popular. The New York International Auto Show provided New Yorkers a chance to see the past, present and future, and it doesn’t get much better than that.
