The all-new 2026 Toyota RAV4 ushers in a bold new era for this beloved SUV, debuting its sixth generation with a complete shift to electrified powertrains—either hybrid (HEV) or plug-in hybrid (PHEV). Here's what makes it stand out:

Power & Performance

HEV models are powered by a 2.5 L four‑cylinder engine paired with Toyota’s fifth‑generation hybrid system, delivering up to 236 hp (AWD) or 226 hp (FWD). The PHEV models feature a robust 320 hp total output, with a significant electric-only range of approximately 50 miles. XSE & Woodland trim levels offer CCS-compatible DC fast charging, replenishing from ~10% to 80% in around 30 minutes.

Toyota brings three distinct design themes for the 2026 RAV4:

Core (LE, XLE, Limited): Contemporary styling with comfort and convenience features.

Rugged — Woodland: Outdoor-ready with increased ground clearance, all-terrain tires, and standard AWD.

Sport — GR Sport: Crafted by Toyota Gazoo Racing, this PHEV-only trim adds sporty suspension, unique aero design, and performance enhancements.
