I didn't notice any on the 2021 RAV4 PHEV.

Why do you think it's losing oil?

No oil should be consumed between oil change intervals in the first 150k mille.

I’ve not used any oil in between serving for my ‘21 PHEV. I do find it’s pretty sensitive about how level the car is. Understandable but I’ve had cars where it’s not been so sensitive.

Nope, not had a Toyota yet in 35 years that I had to top up with oil in between changes .

Did you check the oil level when the car was first collected, and was the oil to the full mark then?

Absolutely no additional oil. In fact I bought the correct oil for topping up and it’s still sealed.

I think the older Prius do after about 200k miles though.

Any engine will start to consume oil soon or later, but not when brand new and not before at least around 100k miles. Toyota dipsticks are difficult to read sometimes and can mislead you. 
Oil also is clear and make things even worse.
Best way to check is on cold and when parked on level ground just pull dipstick and read without whipping it and see it should be around max mark.
