The standard RAV4 is powered by a 2.5L 4-cylinder engine sending power to either the front or to all-four wheels via a new 8-speed automatic transmission. Hybrid models all come in all-wheel drive, thanks to the rear wheels being powered by an electric motor. Expect the hybrid model to return around 34 mpg in the city. RAV4s come in five basic trim levels, SE, XLE, XLE Premium, Adventure and Limited, with prices starting at around $25,500 for the SE. The base SE trim comes standard with 17-inch wheels, LED daytime running lights, LED taillights, power folding mirrors, a backup camera, remote keyless entry, power windows and door locks, a USB input port, Toyota's Entune 3.0 System with a 7-inch touchscreen, Apple CarPlay and Bluetooth music streaming. The XLE adds dual-zone climate control, a smart key system, a blind spot monitoring system with rear cross-traffic alert, alloy wheels, automatic headlights, fog lamps, heated mirrors, a moonroof, a 60/40 split folding rear seat and five USB ports. The Premium version of the XLE gets 19-inch wheels, a power liftgate, seats trimmed in Toyota's SofTex faux leather, an 8-way power adjustable driver's seat and a leather trimmed steering wheel. The Adventure trim looks a little more butch with its own unique set of 19-inch wheels, along with a split bar front upper grill not shared by any other trim level. It also gets unique badging and roof rails. Inside the Adventure gets a nicer, panoramic backup camera, a digital speedometer, orange stitching throughout the interior and a bigger 8-inch touchscreen. The top of the line Limited model comes with additional exterior chrome, puddle lights, heated front seats, a dark brown accented interior, a digital rearview mirror and blue ambient lighting for the interior.
