2022 Toyota RAV4

The 2022 RAV4 continues in six trim levels: LE, XLE, XLE Premium, Adventure, Limited, and TRD Off-Road. Pricing starts at $27,740 including destination and tops out at $37,680 for the TRD Off-Road.

The RAV4 Hybrid and plug-in hybrid (PHEV) RAV4 Prime are covered in separate entries.

Every 2022 RAV4 is powered by a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine that produces 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. All-wheel drive is standard on the Adventure and TRD Off-Road — and available on the other trims for $1,400. All models use an eight-speed automatic transmission.

Front-drive models are EPA-rated at 28 miles per gallon city, 35 mpg highway, and 30 combined. With AWD, ratings ease to 27/33/29 mpg (city/highway/combined).

The RAV4 is a compact, two-row crossover with legitimate seating for five. Cargo space is above average for this class at 37.6 cubic feet behind the rear seat and 69.8 cubic feet with it folded.

Toyota packs every 2022 RAV4 with driver assistance technology, including adaptive cruise control, lane-keeping assist, automatic high beams, road sign recognition, and front collision mitigation with automatic emergency braking. Blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert costs $590 on the LE and is standard on subsequent trims.

The Advanced Technology Package ($1,265) for the XLE Premium and TRD Off-Road includes front and rear parking sensors with rear automatic emergency braking. These items are standard on the Limited, which can get an Advanced Technology Package of its own ($1,725) with surround-view cameras and other features.

The LE offers a seven-inch infotainment touchscreen, six speakers, three USB ports, satellite radio, and Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. The XLE and Adventure pick up two more USB ports and an available Audio Plus Package ($1,090) with a nine-inch touchscreen.

The larger touchscreen is standard on the XLE Premium and TRD Off-Road. The Audio Plus Package for these trims ($1,670) adds an 11-speaker JBL sound system. These upgrades are standard on the Limited, along with navigation. The Limited's Advanced Technology Package also furnishes wireless device charging.

The LE comes with cloth seats, manual climate control, LED exterior lighting, power-folding side mirrors, and 17-inch steel wheels with full covers. A cargo cover is available for $90.

The XLE picks up dual-zone automatic climate control, an eight-way power driver seat, fog lights, push-button start, proximity key access, heated side mirrors, and 17-inch alloy wheels. The cargo cover is also standard. The $925 Weather Package provides heated front seats, a heated leather-wrapped steering wheel, and automatic wipers with de-icers. The $1,265 Convenience Packages adds a sunroof and a power liftgate.

The XLE Premium gets SofTex leatherette upholstery and the Convenience Package as standard. The exterior receives LED fog lights and 19-inch chromed alloy wheels. The Weather Package Package remains optional, priced at $1,075 due to the addition of driver memory settings.

Along with standard AWD, the Adventure features 19-inch black wheels and black body trim for a rugged look. The SofTex seats are standard, and other equipment and packages are shared with the XLE.

The Limited builds on the XLE Premium with standard heated and ventilated front seats, driver memory, an eight-way power passenger seat, ambient interior lighting, digital instrumentation, and chrome door handles.

The Weather Package for the Limited ($815) includes heated rear seats. Besides the surround-view cameras and wireless charging, the Limited's Advanced Technology Package adds a hands-free power liftgate, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, a universal home remote, and a panoramic sunroof.

The TRD Off-Road goes beyond the Adventure with special off-road suspension hardware and 18-inch flow-formed wheels. The TRD also gets the higher level of equipment and options found on the XLE Premium.
