just look at some youtube videos and look like the 2024 RAV4 hybrid model didn't have spare tire, am I correct?

Thank you, that answered my question exactly. Yes, the tire size is the same, I just looked it up.
When I had a 2017 Subaru Outback. that vehicle bought new had 2 serious problems which were never repaired. Long story, but I hired an attorney and was getting ready to sue the Subaru dealership, and the car was stolen. A full size spare would NOT fit in the spare tire well at all, and I had to carry a mounted full size spare on a roof rack.
The small bulge on the RAV4 is acceptable.

It sounds like a great deal if you need one & can get it!

Crisps: I had glossed over the spare information available on Toyota's website. Thanks for that, and the tech info.toyota.com, as I had not seen that. Good to know that owners manuals are available free there before I buy the vehicle.
Now I can look for a full size wheel/tire to use as a spare, and also carry the mini-spare when going far from assistance.
When I take my old beat up Tacoma to the mountains here, or down Baja, I carry 2 full size mounted spares, and I have needed one in the past when I destroyed a sidewall, negating plugging the tire. That was with a BF Goodrich 8 or 10 ply E rated tire. When working for BLM in southern Idaho, We regularly carried two spares, and I've used both of them on two occasions; sharp lava rocks.
Just picked up my 24 hybrid and see that I have 18 in wheels all the way around but the spare tire is a 17-in spare. Is this what you have as factory. Thank you
See my answer at your other post.
Honda CRV Hybrid does not have a spare tire. One of the reasons I ruled it out for my driving needs.
My 2024 Prime has a spare, but you can’t fit much more than the spare, tire iron and the jack under the load floor. It recovers a little space if you take out the foam donut that fits into the spare , but then you have limited support for the load floor.

Yeah I'm with you. I looked at the Honda CRV hybrid as well. New technology for those cars. This is also a very new technology for Honda on the CRVs. Very different than the RAV4 and how it regenerates power. But not having a spare tire was the deal breaker for me.
When you're in the outback on a back road and you hit something that ruptures your tire and you cannot use that fancy little air pack. Who Ya gonna call?
