Congrats on the new car! Opening the gas tank on your 2018
Toyota Rav4
is straightforward. Here’s how to do that:
  • Locate the fuel door release button with a fuel pump icon under the left-hand side of the steering wheel
  • Press or pull the button
  • Exit your vehicle and remove the gas cap
With an estimated EPA rating of up to 23 mpg city and 30 mpg highway, the 2018 Rav4 is more fuel efficient than the
Dodge Journey
but slightly less than the
Honda CR-V
of the same year.
Whenever you need to refuel, ensure you
choose the best gasoline
for your SUV. Toyota recommends using unleaded regular gasoline with an octane number of 87 or higher. Using gas with a lower
octane rating
could cause problems such as engine knocking so it’s best to double-check whenever you refuel.
