2019 Toyota RAV4 Starts From $26,545: All The Details On Prices, Grades And Equipment

The new Toyota RAV4 is set to finally arrive in US dealerships next month, with the Hybrid model to follow in late March of 2019. Toyota has announced all the details of its new SUV, including pricing and fuel economy figures.

The all-new Toyota RAV4 starts from $26,545 (including a Delivery, Processing, and Handling fee of $1,045) in the base front-drive LE trim. All-wheel drive is a $1,400 option.

The range of the fifth-generation RAV4 is divided into five grades for the regular 2.5L gas model (LE, XLE, XLE Premium, the more rugged Adventure and the luxurious Limited) and four for the 2.5L hybrid HV (LE HV, XLE HV, XSE HV and Limited HV).

Toyota RAV4 LE

Base LE models come with a generous equipment level that includes Multi-LED headlights and taillights; low-profile roof rails; privacy glass on side, quarter and liftgate windows; power windows with automatic up/down and jam protection on all doors; 4.2-in. Multi-Information Display (MID); two 12v auxiliary power outlets and more.

Toyota RAV4 XLE

The Toyota RAV4 XLE adds 17-inch alloy wheels; Multi-LED headlights with chrome bezels; fog lights; heated power exterior mirrors with LED turn signals and blind spot warning; power moonroof; dual-zone automatic climate control with rear air vents; Smart Key System with remote keyless entry; four additional USB charging ports, and more.

Toyota RAV4 XLE Premium

The XLE Premium grade builds on that by adding 19-inch super-chrome-finish alloy wheels; SofTex-trimmed seats with 8-way power driver’s seat and 2-way lumbar; power liftgate; leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift handle with sequential mode.

Toyota RAV4 Adventure

The more rugged Adventure grade can be distinguished on the outside by the standard high-rise roof rails, the larger fenders, the more aggressive bumper design, exclusive 19-inch alloys with matte black accents shod in 235/55R19 tires, and 8.6 inches of ground clearance. It is available with an Ice Edge-colored roof paired with one of three exterior colors: Midnight Black Metallic and Blue Flame – both of which are new for RAV4. Inside, heated and ventilated front seats are available, while seat finishes come in either black or a grade-exclusive Mocha-colored SofTex.

Toyota RAV4 XSE HV

For those looking the sportiest of the RAV4s, Toyota will offer the XSE HV Hybrid with a 7.8-second 0-60mph (96km/). It features a sport-tuned suspension with stiffer springs and dampers, 18-inch black alloy wheels, piano-black accents and a standard two-tone exterior paint finish. The standard black roof is paired with Blizzard Pearl, Silver Sky Metallic, Magnetic Gray Metallic, or Blueprint (a new color to the palette). The XSE HV’s exclusive interior comes mono-spec with black SofTex material trim and blue accents throughout.

Toyota RAV4 Limited

As for the luxurious Limited grade, it comes with front and rear bumpers featuring silver accents, large black fenders, a metallic gray grille, 19-inch alloy wheels. The interior features heated and cooled front seats, with the driver’s one being eight-way power adjustable, a power liftgate, the Entune Premium Audio, and a digital rearview mirror, among other.

The engine range includes a new, naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder petrol unit with 203hp and 184lb-ft of torque, paired exclusively to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Toyota claims a 0-60mph in 8.2 seconds and an estimated fuel economy of 27/34/29mpg (city/highway/combined) for the FWD model.

The RAV4 Hybrid uses a 2.5-liter four-cylinder unit with a 54hp electric motor for a combined 219hp, returning an estimated 41/37/39mpg (city/highway/combined).

The new Toyota RAV4’s range includes three different all-wheel drive systems; base models get a regular on-demand system, with the Hybrid featuring an electrically powered rear axle. Opt for a Limited or Adventure model however and you’ll get Toyota’s Dynamic Torque Vectoring system, which shifts torque not only front to back but also between the rear wheels for better handling on and off the road.
