Power: A New Standard of Electrification
The 2026 RAV4 goes all-in on efficiency and performance, eliminating the gas-only engine to offer an exclusively electrified lineup.

-
Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV): The redesigned PHEV system boosts power to up to 320 net system horsepower and an estimated all-electric driving range of 50 miles. Certain PHEV grades, like the XSE and new Woodland, will even support DC fast charging, allowing a recharge from 10% to 80% in about 30 minutes.
Design: Choose Your Adventure Style
The new generation introduces three distinct style themes, each with a specific look to match your lifestyle:
-
Core: (LE, XLE, Limited) Features a modern, sleek appearance with color-matched body elements for urban appeal.

Rugged: (Woodland) Built for the outdoors with a higher ride height, standard roof rails, a bold front-end design, and all-terrain tires.
-
Sport: (SE, XSE, and the all-new GR SPORT) Offers a more aggressive look with larger wheels, a sport-tuned suspension, and dynamic styling cues. The all-new RAV4 GR SPORT grade focuses on performance-oriented details for thrill-seekers.
