Toyota has partially improved the RAV4 and RAV4 PHV, and added a hybrid vehicle (E-Four) to the "Adventure" grade of the RAV4.

The first RAV4 was introduced in 1994 and opened up a new market for passenger car type crossover SUVs. The size is increased with each generation, and this model is the 5th generation.

With this partial improvement, the design of the headlights for both RAV4 and RAV4 PHV has been changed to give a sharp impression. In addition, the design of all grade aluminum wheels has been reviewed. The "RAV4 G" has 18-inch tires and dark premium metallic painted aluminum wheels, and the "RAV4 X" has 17-inch tires and gray metallic painted aluminum wheels.

There were no changes in the interior of the RAV4 and RAV4 PHV.

With the conventional RAV4, the "Adventure" grade, which was previously set only for gasoline-powered vehicles, can now be selected for hybrid models.
In the "Adventure" grade, special parts are used for the front grille, bumper, skid plate, fog lamp bezel, etc., and the specially designed 19-inch aluminum wheels and the larger wheel arch molding emphasize the strength of the suspension. By doing so, we are trying to enhance the off-road image. In addition, "Ash Gray Metallic x Grayish Blue" has been added as a new body color.

The RAV4's power train is available in 2.0L straight-four, and the RAV4 PHV is available in two types: 2.5L straight-four + motor (hybrid).
2WD and 4WD are set for both drive systems, but 2WD is set only for X grade.
The world's first "Dynamic Torque Vectoring AWD" is used for the "Adventure" and G Z package grades of the RAV4 2.0L straight-four engine vehicle. This is a "torque vectoring mechanism" that controls the rear wheel torque independently in addition to the front and rear torque distribution according to the driving situation, and the drive system that transmits power to the rear wheels when it is judged that 4WD driving is unnecessary is separated. A "disconnect mechanism" is used to improve fuel efficiency. You can check the torque distribution status to each wheel on the multi-information display.

The RAV4 and RAV4 PHV preventive safety packages are equipped with "Toyota Safety Sense" as standard equipment on all models. Vehicles, pedestrians (day and night), and cyclists (day) in front are detected by millimeter-wave radar and monocular camera, and an alarm buzzer and multi-information display are displayed to notify the possibility of a collision. When the brake is stepped on, the pre-crash brake assist is activated, and when the brake is not stepped on, the pre-crash brake is activated to support collision avoidance or damage mitigation.

In addition, DCM (in-vehicle communication device) is standard equipment on all vehicles, and T-Connect service is provided free of charge for 3 years, providing a full range of safety and comfort equipment.
