Since its launch in 1996, the Toyota RAV4 has been an astounding success for the Japanese manufacturer across the globe. In order to keep the momentum going, the North American arm has provided next year’s model with a series of updates and a new grade for the hybrid model.
The new Toyota RAV4 SE Hybrid grade includes a monotone paint, fabric trimmed seats and a 7,0-inch touchscreen connected to six speakers. This trim’s available options consist of the weather package which includes a heated leather steering wheel, heated front seats and rain-sensing windshield wipers with a de-icer function. The convenience package includes a sunroof, height adjustable power tailgate and the Audio Plus that upgrades to a 9,0-inch touchscreen.
The Toyota RAV4 range gets some exterior and interior features across all grades as well. The XSE trim benefits from a new Cavalry Blue with a black roof. The LE Hybrid, XLE and XLE Hybrid gain a new shade of colour for the wheels, as does the Adventure grade.
XLE grades and above get updated headlamps, both for style and capability improvement. New LED foglamps are being introduced for XLE Premium, Limited, Adventure and TRD Off-Road. The XSE Hybrid gets the super sleek vertical lights that debuted on the XSE Prime in 2021.
Interior updates are also found across multiple grades. This includes a locking glove box and LED interior lamps added to all trims. XLE and above get illuminated interior switches and Limited grade gets an eight-way power passenger seat.
It is not yet clear whether the local Toyota RAV4 will be benefitting from any of these enhancements.
