Performance
Under the hood of every RAV4 is a 2.5-liter I4 engine that produces 203 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. The engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission for smooth, responsive shifting between gears. Drivers can opt for either front-wheel drive or all-wheel drive, depending on their preferences and needs. With front-wheel drive, the RAV4 achieves up to 27 miles per gallon in the city, 35 miles per gallon on the highway, and 30 miles per gallon combined. Going with all-wheel drive slightly reduces fuel economy to 25 miles per gallon city, 33 miles per gallon highway, and 28 to 29 miles per gallon combined, depending on the trim. This is still excellent fuel efficiency for an SUV, so you won't have to constantly refill on gas during trips.
Do you need an SUV with towing power? The new Toyota RAV4 lineup delivers 1,500 pounds of standard towing, but choosing the TRD Off-Road model, you'll get to enjoy 3,500 pounds of maximum towing capacity.

Every RAV4 includes Toyota Safety Sense 2.5+, which comprises a pre-collision system with pedestrian detection, lane departure alert with steering assist, lane tracing assist, road sign assist, and more. You also get 10 airbags placed throughout the cabin, blind spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and a backup camera. Higher trims can be upgraded with additional safety aids like front and rear parking sensors, panoramic view monitor, and more.
