Toyota’s fourth generation of the compact crossover SUV was all new for 2013. The latest RAV4 combines a four-cylinder engine with a standard six-speed automatic transmission, seating for five, excellent cargo room and available high tech features. The RAV4 is a well-executed alternative to other popular models like the CR-V from Honda.
What's New for 2014
Toyota adds new Entune Audio systems and an available new Technology package for the Limited model. It also includes a complimentary maintenance plan for two years or 25,000 miles with your purchase or lease.
Choosing Your Toyota RAV4
Standard across the line is a 2.5-liter four-cylinder that produces 176 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque. A six-speed automatic is standard, and the RAV4 is available with either front- or all-wheel drive.
The front-drive RAV4 returns an EPA-estimated 24 mpg city, 31 mpg highway, and 26 mpg combined. The all-wheel drive model, meanwhile, achieves 22 mpg city, 29 mpg highway, and 25 mpg combined.
The most important factor in your RAV4 is trim level and your choice of front- or all-wheel drive.
Standard features on the $23,550 base model include Entune multimedia bundle with Bluetooth audio and phone capability. Few options are available. The LE comes only with fabric upholstery, and don't look for a power driver’s seat or navigation.
Priced from $25,000, the XLE adds dual-zone automatic climate control, a cargo area cover and Entune Audio Plus with HD Radio and SiriusXM radio. It also includes a moonroof with sunshade, power heated mirrors and roof rails.
The top-of-the-line RAV4 retails for $28,320 and adds 18-inch alloy wheels, projector beam headlights and a height-adjustable power liftgate with jam protection. Inside you will find a leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift lever, SofTex-trimmed eight-way power adjustable driver’s seat and heated front seats as well as push-button start. The Limited also includes Entune Premium Audio with navigation and an app suite. An optional Technology Package includes blind spot monitor with rear cross traffic alert, lane departure alert and auto high beam.
If you don’t need V6 power or third-row seating, the redesigned RAV 4 is the best RAV4 yet. The look is sleek inside and out with lots of cargo space. Our pick is the well-priced and well-equipped XLE. Skip all-wheel drive unless you live in a climate that needs it.
