2026 Toyota RAV4 Model Review - Phoenix, AZ

What's New for the 2026 Toyota RAV4?

The latest RAV4 is fully redesigned to bring it into the new era. For the first time in history, the RAV4 is available with all-electric powertrains. As the bestselling compact SUV in America, it would be wise for competitors to note that the RAV4 is changing the game with this decision. Customers can get a hybrid electric vehicle or a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle to take their RAV4 to its finest hours.

What Are the 2026 RAV4 Trims & Features?

The prolific 2026 Toyota RAV4 is available in LE, XLE, Limited, Woodland, SE, XSE, and GR Sport trims. Toyota considers the first three to be "core" designs, while the Woodland falls into the "Rugged" category, and the SE, XSE, and GR Sport fall under the umbrella of "Sport" designs. The big news in the trim lineup is the all-new GR Sport trim. GAZOO Racing helped Toyota with GR-tuning and more race-oriented styling. Woodland trims get a stylish split-grille design and more ground clearance for off-roading. The Toyota touchscreen in the new RAV4 will be slimmer, available in 10.5-inch or 12.9-inch designs. SofTex fabric has been revamped for the new year and will be available in a large number of trims. It's comfort, performance, and style all rolled into one beautiful package.

How Much Horsepower Does the 2026 RAV4 Have?

Hybrid RAV4 models will get a 2.5L engine and two electric motors that combine for 226 horsepower (FWD). All-wheel drive models powered by this engine will be good for 236 horsepower. If you choose the PHEV RAV4, it gets a combined 320 horsepower and standard all-wheel drive.

What Safety Features Does the 2026 RAV4 Include?

Toyota's driver-assist platform wins prestigious awards each year. For those driving a RAV4 this year, you'll have advanced features to choose from across the board. A redesigned head-up display, enhanced automatic emergency braking, and blind spot monitoring are just the beginning of all the ways the 2026 Toyota RAV4 protects its occupants. Models like the Woodland also get enhanced suspension systems and tires for more agile handling on rougher terrain.
