I'd like to swap into a RAV4.

I'd like to swap into a RAV4.

I have a 2011 x35. I would love to do a direct swap for a RAV4. What year RAV4 could I except to get. Mileage on x35 is 100.000k

Our answer:

Hi Mary,

In terms of equivalent value you're probably looking at a 2009 to 2010 RAV4, assuming that the trade in value of your ix35 is between €10-12,000. The problem is (or problems are) that that means trading down to an older generation RAV4, which is smaller, noisier and not as sophisticated as your ix35. I think you'll also struggle to find a dealer happy to do a straight swap - almost all will want to have some element of cash or finance in the deal.
