    50 grand car and still noisy. Guess Toyota and especially Lexus don't care about noise. In this class, cabin noise is a big factor. Took many Sienna owners complaints before they insulate it in 2015.

    I guess the Rav is not much better.... even though Toyota said it has made it quiet.

    Maybe they meant relative to driving freeway speeds with the windows down.

    that car is $50k? gah. that's close th RX450h territory.

    I was just watching the consumer reports review of the Rav hybrid and they said it was much quieter than old Ravs.

    Yes it is. At least in Canada, the RX has gone up in price to leave room for the NX/NXh.
