Short-wheelbase versions are sold in Japan and Europe; long-wheelbase versions in Australia and North America. Toyota of Japan also sells the longer-wheelbase version as the Toyota Vanguard ( ??????????, Toyota Vangado ) at Toyopet Store locations. Japanese versions are sold at two different Toyota dealerships, Toyota Corolla Store and Toyota Netz Store.Design and development commenced in 1989 under code-name 153T, with design approval and start of production development in the second half of 1991 on the 3-door version and in 1993 for the 5-door version. In March 1995, the 5-door was launched and introduced to the US in January 1996, with standard dual airbags.In the US, a 2.0-liter straight-four producing 89 kW (119 hp; 121 PS) was available. Both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive were available, and the RAV4 could be had with either a five-speed manual or four-speed automatic transmission. It was named the 1997 Automobile of the Year by Automobile Magazine. The 1996-1997 model years had headlamps with a bracket push in type, dual filament bulb. The rear used round socket type bulbs as well. In 1997 for the 1998 model year, the RAV4 was slightly restyled on the front and rear fascias, and a soft top three-door was made available. Power was increased slightly to 95 kW (127 hp; 129 PS). In June 1999, the two-door hardtop was dropped from the American lineup, leaving the five-door and soft top models. The 1998-2000 models used a single filament headlamp, with two different beams per housing (low and high beam) opposed to the original single beam with dual filaments. In Japan, the 2.0-liter 3S-GE BEAMS engine with 132 kW (177 hp; 179 PS) was also available.However the wiring for the clock is still behind the dash, thus a clock can be installed in models sold without.Like the previous model, the XA20 was available in three- and five-door configurations and was constructed on a platform that shared Carina and Corolla elements.

Development began in 1995, with a design freeze in the first half of 1998.Some RAV4s came with anti-lock braking system, electronic stability control, air conditioning, a height-adjustable driver's seat, cruise control, a six-speaker CD stereo and power windows, mirrors and seats. A sport package added a mesh grille, bonnet scoop, color-keyed door handles, a roof rack, silver sport pedals, heated mirrors, gray-painted bumpers and fender flares, and sport fabric seats. Other options included alloy wheels, heated seats, a sunroof and keyless entry. 16-inch wheels were standard; larger tires were available on all-wheel-drive models.The main differentiation between the two models was in appearance. Edge models came with unpainted grey bumpers and side cladding, mirrors, and door handles, and featured steel rims. Cruiser models gained body-colored (painted) bumpers and moldings, mirrors, and door handles, alloy wheels, and ABS brakes. All models came equipped with a brand-new 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine featuring VVT (variable valve timing), resulting in improved power and torque, as well as fuel consumption. Permanent all-wheel-drive was a feature. Options were ABS brakes (on the Edge), and air conditioning (on all models). The second generation RAV4 enjoyed success in Australia, where it became the best-selling SUV in the country in 2001, overtaking its rival the Honda CR-V for the first time.In the United States the safety structure was improved and Vehicle Stability Control made standard. The RAV4's 2.0-liter engine was upgraded with a new 2.4-liter engine in the US, producing 120 kW (160 hp; 160 PS) and 220 N?m (162 lb?ft). Other countries got mostly 5-door models with the 2.0 liter VVT-i engine. Automatic electric air conditioning also became available. European models got a new catalytic converter because of the new European emission policy. The new model also got an electric throttle.

The CV also received painted bumpers, which came in either silver or body-colored shades, depending on the body color. In addition, the model range was given a subtle facelift, consisting largely of a new front bumper with circular fog lights and white turn signals instead of the older orange lights. The CV Sport model was short-lived, lasting only a year, and was introduced primarily to stimulate sales until the new model arrived in early 2006.The short-wheelbase model is sold only in Japan, Europe and New Zealand (diesel only in NZ), with the long-wheelbase RAV4 sold in Australia, New Zealand and North America. Toyota discontinued the Vanguard in November 2013 in favour of the redesigned XU60 Harrier. As the RAV4 continued to grow, it became expensive to own in Japan due to the exterior dimensions and engine displacement placing it in the upper tax bracket as defined by Japanese government dimension regulations and annual road tax obligations.The extended-length RAV4 is larger by 21 in interior volume from the last generation and now has an available third-row seat for children (North America and Japan only). The RAV4 can still be had in either front-wheel-drive or all-wheel-drive in North America and Japan; however most countries only sell the all-wheel-drive version.The Limited model gets a different front grille and bumper cover from other models. The Sport model features a bigger spoiler and red badging along with an option on the V6 model to have a rear door without the externally mounted spare tire ( run-flat tires are used on this model). Much of the interior remains as before. In 2009, it was also the first time for the Canadian market to have a 2WD model sold in Canada.The X and G can be ordered with either front-wheel-drive or AWD. The Sport model with over fenders is AWD only. The extended-length RAV4 is sold in Japan as the Toyota Vanguard, released on August 30, 2007.

In model year 2009, a slightly larger 133 kW (178 hp; 181 PS) 2.5-liter 2AR-FE inline-four replaced the previous 124 kW (166 hp; 169 PS) 2.4-liter engine. Either four-cylinder engine came equipped with a four-speed automatic transmission. The North American RAV4 with 3.5-liter 2GR-FE V6 engine is fitted with a five-speed automatic transmission. All US models feature Toyota's Star Safety System which includes Vehicle Stability Control. The new RAV4 topped Toyota SUV sales in the United States for the first time.The new generation RAV4, which is the current model, had more features as standard equipment. Base and Limited trims continue to be available, but on the Limited trim 4WD became an option and the Base model now added 17-inch steel wheels but the roof rack was still standard in both trims. For the refresh of 2009 the roof rack in the Base model was eliminated as standard equipment and the Sport trim was added to the line-up. Up to 2008MY all RAV4s in Mexico had four-cylinder engines but for 2009 the Sport model became available with the V6 engine, although the four-cylinder engine was still available. The Limited trim was only available with the V6 engine and 4WD traction.

Since its adoption, the IIHS has noticed several automakers making non-symmetrical modifications to their vehicles, including the RAV4. Another small overlap test was conducted on a number of vehicles, including a 2015 RAV4, but was conducted on the passenger side instead.It is built on GA-K platform, which is also shared with eighth generation Camry, fifth generation Avalon and seventh generation Lexus ES.

A sunroof is optional on all trims, while privacy glass is standard on the Sport and Limited models. The RAV4's standard 2.5-liter, 179-hp four-cylinder engine mated to an outdated four speed automatic should be adequate for most situations, but those who plan to haul lots of passengers and cargo on a regular basis should opt for the 3.5-liter V-6. The stronger engine is rated at 269 hp, which leads many crossovers in the segment.
The six-cylinder is mated to a five-speed automatic and propels the RAV4 from 0-60 mph in about six seconds.

The optional 269-horsepower V6 is very quick while still managing 27 mpg on the highway.The 4-cylinder includes a 4-speed automatic transmission, while the V6 is matched to a 5-speed automatic; both transmissions have a grade logic that reduces the frequency of shifting on steep, curvy roads. V6 models and 4-cylinder models with the third-row seat, also get Hill-start Assist Control and Downhill Assist Control devices that help maintain control when negotiating steep, slippery slopes. Fuel economy is quite good with either engine. A 4-cylinder RAV4 equipped with front-wheel-drive returns 22 mpg in the city and 28 mpg on the highway. The front-wheel-drive V6 is rated at 19 city, 27 highway, yet it is still capable of propelling the RAV4 to 60 mph in under seven seconds.

Peterson 5.0 out of 5 stars I tested the 2016, 2015, 2013, and then found my 2012. It's larger inside and the visibility is way better than the newer models. The negatives are minor for all the positives. It has a smaller gas tank than my last car, but I'm adjusting. And it's seriously heavy, with the spare tire on it. Just don't let it bounce back and try to close on you. I love the hidden storage areas for security. It handles great and had good pick up when you need it. Gas mileage is average- not great but it's an SUV. Oh! And I drove like a champ on all that snow and ice we got last winter!! I love my Rav4 and plan on keeping it forever.My family out grew it so I moved on to another vehicle. I towed a pop up camper with ease, had plenty of power in the mountains of Colorado and Wyoming. It handled great and never gave me trouble. The 4WD system and traction control worked great in the winter. Because of the spare being on the back it hadpretty good trunk space. I had mine for 87,000 miles and never had an issue. I only changed oil and brakes. I'll be looking for another one when my daughter starts driving.However since the spare is external there is a nice sized storage compartment where the spare would normally go. The RAV 4 handles well, I assume costlier European models handle much better?I started doing a lot of events with my side business and needed room to transport tables and supplies. I test drove the RAV4 and fell in love. Of course, they showed me the limited edition with the leather seats, sun roof and power everything. It wasn't too big to drive like some other SUV's I have seen, I feel totally comfortable driving it and it is still very spacious inside.
I was concerned being a larger vehicle it would be bad on gas, but I get through a whole week driving to and from work and taking the kids to school on one tank, just like I did with my car. Definitely a great purchase, I love my lil' SUV.LOVE the RAVS. Runs great and it runs as fast as you want to go. Bought both used. The 2010 bought in 2012. Was in two accidents the first 5 months. A Volvo rear ended me as I was stopped in traffic they were on the phone. Then a big Land Rover in snow smashed into my front end as he skidded in snow into me. A 4X4 will not stop you from skidding. All was fixed and the RAV is still running great. Drive MA to VA once or twice a year with no problems. The 2012 bought in 2016 with 27K miles is the last year for the V6 so we bought one for my wife. She loves the size, height and SPEED.It's the base model with a V6 that gets about 23 mpg. This vehicle has 75,000 miles on it and the only thing I've put into it is gas, oil and tires. The OEM Bridgestone tires wore out very quickly even though I rotated them every 5,000 miles. It's comfortable, reliable, and the V6 engine has plenty of power. Unfortunately, the V6 is no long available and it no longer comes with a full-size spare tire, so when it comes time to replace it, I'll probably buy something different.I was very disappointed in it, With less than 40,000 miles the lifters needed replacing, a chassis water leak took the dealer four months to correct with a small lake in it every time it rained and some of the extra assessors that I would never have ordered were cheap and I finally had the dealer remove. I never planned on getting another. My wife talked me into buying the 2012, it has been flawless and a far more comfortable, powerful and utilitarian than it's predecessor. My wife bought a new 2014, though different, I like it as much.It is Toyota quality like my Land Cruiser, not a low end desposable car like a Vega or Escort.
