Intro
The 2025 Toyota RAV4 is set to continue its legacy as a top-selling compact SUV, blending practicality with advanced features and a refined design. Toyota has focused on enhancing both the interior and exterior, making the RAV4 more appealing to a wide range of drivers.
Exterior
The 2025 RAV4 will likely sport a slightly more aggressive and modernized look, with a refreshed front grille, sleeker LED headlights, and updated taillights. The body lines are expected to be sharper, contributing to a more aerodynamic profile. New color options and alloy wheel designs will provide buyers with more customization choices.
Interior
Inside, the RAV4 will likely feature a more tech-focused and premium cabin. Expect an upgraded infotainment system with a larger touchscreen, enhanced connectivity options, and support for wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
