A Bold New Look That Works for You
Now in its sixth generation, the RAV4 features a rugged yet refined design, highlighted by its wide stance, prominent fender flares, and functional rear cargo area. All trims share the signature Toyota hammerhead front fascia, while unique design elements, like contrasting roof options, trim-specific spoilers, and new LED lighting, give each grade its own identity.
There are three design themes across seven grades: Core, Sport, and Rugged. The Woodland Edition returns with off-road flair and a new Urban Rock exterior color, while the GR SPORT debuts with a performance-inspired presence. Other color options like Meteor Shower and Storm Cloud join returning favorites like Midnight Black Metallic and Blueprint.
Inside, the RAV4’s cabin has been carefully reconfigured for ease and comfort. A cleaner center stack keeps climate, audio, and drive controls within easy reach. Premium materials vary by trim, from durable fabric to SofTex®, Ultrasuede®, and even BRIN•NAUB® microsuede seating on the GR SPORT. A new shift-by-wire toggle and modern touchscreens give the interior a high-tech yet user-friendly feel.
Electrified Power and Towing Power When You Need It
The 2026 Toyota RAV4 is now 100% electrified, offering both Hybrid Electric (HEV) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric (PHEV) powertrains. It also marks the first time Toyota’s fifth-generation hybrid system appears on an SUV. Featuring a 2.5L four-cylinder engine and upgraded hybrid components, this system delivers improved efficiency and responsiveness.
The new FWD Hybrid setup produces up to 226 net horsepower, while AWD variants offer up to 236 horsepower. That means you get smooth acceleration, confident highway passing, and the added benefit of Toyota’s proven hybrid reliability. For those who need more traction, the available All-Wheel Drive system gives you the confidence to tackle rain, snow, or uneven terrain.
If towing capability is on your checklist, the new RAV4 has you covered. Select AWD models, including the HEV XLE, SE, XSE, Limited, and all AWD PHEV trims, can tow up to 3,500 pounds, making it easy to bring along gear, trailers, or toys for the weekend. FWD models and the LE AWD version offer a 1,750-pound capacity, ideal for lighter loads.
The Woodland Edition brings even more capability with all-terrain tires, a raised ride height, and a 3D Multi-Terrain Monitor that helps you see what’s directly beneath your vehicle for trail driving or maneuvering through tight spots. Add roof rails, crossbars, and a rear activity mount, and this model is truly adventure-ready.
Tech and Safety
From advanced safety to premium convenience, the 2026 RAV4 is packed with features that make a difference.
A standard 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster puts essential information front and center, while available displays up to 12.9 inches manage your infotainment and HVAC settings with a modern, clean interface. The panoramic moonroof on the Limited grade lets in light and air, and available audio systems range from a standard six-speaker setup to a nine-speaker JBL® Premium Audio system.
For added peace of mind, every RAV4 model comes with the debut of Toyota Safety Sense 4.0, featuring enhanced detection and support systems to help you drive with confidence.
