Almost as though you got water in the fuel, or a dying fuel pump,check air filter and change fuel filter and inspect fuel filter for contaminates

How do a car act when it needs a fuel filter

Yes, fuel starvation would be indicative of good start and idle, but then loses power on the road. Injectors are more likely to affect a variety of RPMs and would often set a check engine light and run roughly (they rarely all go at once) Filter is a decent diagnosis. Replace proactively at 50KM intervals. Bad gas is not unheard of either. While checking, also check the engine air filter.

Rav4 1999 hesitates and loses power

possible the fuel pump is intermittently going bad. sometimes the fuel filters are getting clogged and this can be symptomatic. i would replace the fuel filters first and then the fuel pump.

Try replacing Oxygen sensor (top of exhaust pipe just rear of engine; 22mm ring-spanner job after cutting wires); though normally comes up with Code 1 on the MIL, this is the right bunch of symptoms.
