Overview
The sixth-generation RAV4 was revealed on 20–21 May 2025 in Japan, Canada and the United States. It is the first RAV4 generation to have a "fully electrified" lineup, offering either a fifth-generation hybrid (HEV) or sixth-generation plug-in hybrid (PHEV) drivetrain. Production began in late 2025, with deliveries starting in North America and Japan for the 2026 model year, in China during November 2025 and in Europe and Australasia during the first half of 2026. Toyota groups exterior treatments into three "design themes": "Core" (LE, XLE, Limited), "Adventure" (Woodland) and "Sport" (SE, XSE, the GR Sport).
Powertrains
All PHEVs include silicon-carbide inverters, V2H capability and (grade-dependent) 50 kW CCS fast charging that replenishes 10–80 % in roughly 30 minutes. Towing capacity is 1750 lb on FWD and LE AWD models, rising to 3500 lb on other AWD grades.
Technology
A 10.5-inch touchscreen is standard, with a 12.9-inch unit on upper grades. Both systems run Toyota's Arene software platform, which supports wireless smartphone mirroring and cloud-based navigation. Independent road tests have noted improvements in screen responsiveness, wireless smartphone integration, and overall infotainment usability.
Safety
The XA60 debuts Toyota Safety Sense 4.0, which adds front cross-traffic alert, lane-change assist, and predictive curve speed control, all of which will be delivered via over-the-air updates.
