Standing out in the crossover market, the new 2025 Toyota RAV4 impresses with exceptional performance, a spacious cabin, and exciting technologies. Beyond style and comfort, a wide range of standard features make it a segment leader.
The new RAV4 continues its predecessor’s legacy, offering powerful performance, responsive handling, and a rich suite of comfort and convenience features. A true showstopper on the road, it boasts attention-grabbing styling with its aggressive front fascia and slim headlamps. LED exterior lights with daytime running lights are standard across all trim levels, while vertical signature lights boost the visual appeal on select trims.
Distinctive design elements include a stylish grille and chrome exhaust tips. The base trim level comes with 17-inch wheels, but larger wheel options are standard on the upper models. Exterior customization options are plentiful and include eight stunning colors, such as Blueprint, Wind Chill Pearl, and Ice Cap. Whether you’re looking for an affordable crossover or a luxury small SUV, you can choose from four gas-powered and seven electrified trim levels.
Powerful Performance
Toyota offers the 2025 RAV4 in gas-powered, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid options, the last two marketed as separate models. The wallet-friendly gas trim levels have a 2.5L Dynamic Force 4-cylinder engine under the hood, delivering 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. For smooth shifting in all driving conditions and fuel economy, this engine pairs with an eight-speed automatic transmission and standard front-wheel drive.
Sport, eco, and normal drive modes adjust the power and torque distribution to suit specific driving conditions. For off-road adventures, you can opt for the available all-wheel drive offered with additional drive modes for mud, sand, rocks, dirt, and snow. Both drivetrains pair with independent suspensions for smooth rides on bumpy roads, and you can tow light trailers weighing up to 1,500 lbs.
Comfort and Technologies
Inside, the RAV4 prioritizes comfort with power-adjustable front seats, cubbies for your belongings, and multiple cup and bottle holders in both rows. The driver-centric cabin boasts an intuitive design of the dash and center console so that the driver can easily reach the various controls and the center touchscreen. An auxiliary power outlet and three USB ports, including a media port in the front storage tray, allow you to power up or charge devices.
The rear seats boast a 60/40 split-fold design and are reclinable, providing exceptional support and ensuring an easy expansion of the cargo area. An 8-inch center touchscreen is standard on most trims and comes with all the functions you’d expect from a modern vehicle, including smartphone mirroring and hands-free phone control. A larger display and premium audio system are available on select trims.
