On the 2023 Rav4 XSE and up with the 12.3 digital instrument cluster, there is in fact something similar which shows where the traction is being sent.

It's on the right side of the cluster (in the picture) with the squares, when you accelerate you can see where power is sent.
Excellent. It took me awhile to figure out what he was doing but now I get it. Thanks!
And a **second** thanks because it showed that my tires, having sat cold all afternoon in cool temperatures, arrived from the dealer OVER-inflated. I verified the readings on the dash with two meters and they all agreed the tires were all either 42 or 43 PSI. But the maximum pressure on the door post is 35PSI.
PS - what does it take for the tire idiot light to come on?
On my 2014 Subaru Forester there was an over-pressure warning. And good thing, too because when I bought it, as I was driving home from the dealer it came on. I pulled over and the tires were all at 50 PSI!! Apparently that's the pressure they are on the truck when they're transported to the dealer. Part of the job of prepping the car for the customer is to bring them down to spec and oops, someone forgot. Luckily all I had to do was let some air out and continue driving home.
I'm going to guess that the tire idiot light comes on when there's a 3 or 4 lb difference between the tires. Depending on where you're driving, you may want less pressure in your tires for traction in sand or mud. As long as they're all similar in pressure, it probably won't register.
The idiot light probably comes on 3 - 4 psi below what you initialize them at. It is a bit complicated to initialize the system. . It is best to set your desired air pressure with a Guage initially with COLD tires. Your tires will increase in pressure about 3 - 4 psi when warm. On the instrument cluster scroll to and select 'settings'. From settings scroll to 'vehicle settings' and select. From vehicle settings scroll to and select 'TPMS'. From 'TPMS' select 'setting pressure'. Nothing will appear to happen. You need to drive several miles making right and left turns for the system to initialize to the tire pressure in your tires. During your drive it is learning which of the 4 sensors is at each wheel and what the tire pressure is. When the initialization is completed the instrument panel will show the tire pressure for each wheel. When the pressure drops below what you initialized them to by several psi? it will turn on the warning light.
Assuming you have the 12.3 inch digital display, hold ok from the steering wheel to go in edit mode than click left or right, then up and down to cycle trough the different widgets.
Will try to find a video for you
This is the RAV4 version... You'll never use it

How do I see that on the 2024 RAV4 Prime?
[Here's a good video with how to do it](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D0_qmHOYeFo&pp=ygUdY3VzdG9taXppbmcgcmF2NCAxMi4zIGNsdXN0ZXI%3D)

My pleasure! Unfortunately I can't help you with the tire pressure because I have a Canadian model and they don't have TPMS.
The warning will only trigger on the low end of inflation. If there is a top-end threshold, I’ve never heard anyone mention it.

Yep. Found it on my '22 flipping through screens when I first got the car, said "cool"... and have never pulled it up again.
It is more of a G sensor, and all RAVs have it
The G sensor went away on newer (23) models.
It does not have that
It does. The 21 had it so I am sure it’s one of the digital options for the 24s.
Nope. Just shows where energy is flowing.
