The Current Condition

The RAV4 is a popular SUV in Australian auto market, and Toyota has plans for their upcoming RAV4. If everything goes as planned, production should start somewhere in December 2021, but it’s unclear whether everything will go as planned or not.

Hybrid Option for New RAV4

With new hybrid option with this cruiser, expect the addition of convenience and luxury features into the trim. Those features were only available to the limited Edge, the top-spec line. But now, you can enjoy everything in all trims. All trims would definitely add extra 3-stage ventilation (on the front seat), digital mirror for the rear view, and also 8-way power seat for the front side (for the passenger). The 2021 model has already come with 10-way power seat for the driver as well as the heated (front seat), so the addition of the 8-way power is definitely good for the new line.

Power and Performance (in General)

It’s predicted that torque and power would remain the same, but auto start and stop would be added to the line. In fact, it would be the standard for all petrol variants. If nothing changes, the vehicle would be coming with four cylinder unit with 2.0 liter capacity that churns out 127 kW of power. The hybrid unit may be likely coming with four cylinder engine of 2.5 liter capacity that can generate 160 kW for the front wheel driving system and 163 kW in all wheel driving system. But then again, we can’t be really sure about it because the company hasn’t said anything in details about it.
