Stuck in the Rav 4 Prime

Big snow day, testing out the Toyota RAV4 Prime in the snow. We get stuck in the very wet snow.

The Rav4 Prime doesn't get stuck, it merely enjoys playing in the snow.

Seems like you didn't get stuck. The all wheel drive worked as advertised. Maybe winter tires and practice driving in the snow would help you avert an incorrect title on another future video.

Problem is between the wheel and the seat🥸

[Monkeyseemonkey]

It's all about momentum. The driver needs to keep gently applying power vs constantly stopping. If you keep the power on, the AWD will figure it out and get you moving.

I have 8" of slush in my street right now and my Prime (with Blizzaks) is a beast in the snow. The only limitation is ground clearance.

[garymeredith]

That's why you have a trail button on the dial on that car push that and it will go out easily even the snow .

[zerosixty]

Use trail mode. It definitely helps in snow. I had the same result

[jamesdean]

Stuck because of two things. 1. Bad driver. You had momentum and then came to a stop. 2. You don’t have winter tires.

[davidw.]

Obviously the driver knows that to keep the vehicle moving in the snow, coming to a complete stop for no reason is what you need to do 🙄

[cryzpin]

Are those propper winter tyres? Looks like those summer types we are using in Europe.

[dukekelloway]

Stunned driver on bad tires can get this thing out. Looking good.

How does this car do in the snow? Would you pass for somebody who lives in the mountains?

[andersriksson]

It doesn't look like the rear tyres help here, is it really a AWD?

[masmoney]

What’s the best chain for RAV4 prime any feed back is fantastic bleeder back

[JollyMan]

First & foremost- IS IT AWD or not is important

If AWD, proper minimal tire thread is important too

[petrolhd]

That’s why there’s the all wheel drive lock button to split the power 50/50 to front and back wheels. When It’s on, you won’t be spinning the front tires like that

[anthonyhebert-trudeau]

Deep wet snow is the most slippery surface known to man, you need winter tires.

[mrtv]

Always keep your wheels straight and you’re gold. Same in sand.

[bahhaziz]

It's the driver not the car 🤷 in the snow once you start moving don't stop

[richgallagher]

Rav4 doesn’t mean it’s definitely 4wd.
This one appears to be 2wd…

Thank You Almighty God for blessing me I will buy one for myself
