Lifeās an adventure. Why not take its challenges head-on with rugged styling and plenty of
standard safety technology? Are you ready to explore? The 2020 RAV4 is ā and weāre about to
reveal why.
Available Trim Levels
One of the countryās best-selling SUVs, the RAV4ās rugged design is at home on pavement or in
the dirt. Part of the fifth generation, it was fully redesigned just last year. The 2020
variant offers drivers an impressive six trim levels, including LE, XLE, XLE Premium,
Adventure, TRD Off-Road, and Limited.
Take the scenic route with the new-for-2020 TRD Off-Road model. It delivers improved capability
on the trails thanks to 18-inch wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires and a unique suspension kit
with red coil springs. The 2020 RAV4 Adventure trim is equipped with an advanced
all-wheel-drive system that can disconnect the rear axle to improve fuel economy.
Price-leader LE models are pretty basic, while the high-end Limited variant challenges many
luxury brands. Toyota throws in a few perks on the XLE trim, such as a moonroof, and the
mid-range XLE Premium gets niceties like faux-leather upholstery. The hybrid trims are also a
compelling choice.
Powertrain
No matter which RAV4 trim you decide to drive home, it comes with a 203-horsepower 2.5-liter
four-cylinder engine under the hood. Toyota paired this peppy powerhouse with an eight-speed
automatic transmission and either front- or all-wheel drive on the 2020 Adventure trim.
The Latest Technology
Toyotaās Entune infotainment system features a suite of advanced technology that starts with a
7-inch touch screen, a USB port, Apple CarPlay, Bluetooth, a Wi-Fi hot spot, and a six-speaker
audio system. This automaker added Android Auto smartphone integration capability standard for
the new model year, as well as SiriusXM satellite radio, while the Limited trims now come with
the premium, 11-speaker JBL sound system, and wireless device charging. All the controls are
easy to use, and it ranks among the best in the class thanks to its intuitive interface and
responsive touch screen/
