Take a Look at the 2023 Toyota RAV4

The ’23 Toyota RAV4 comes in front-wheel-drive as its standard. However, you can upgrade to Toyota’s dynamic torque vectoring all-wheel-drive system on many of its trims. This SUV is powered by a preppy 2.5L four-cylinder powertrain that delivers 203 horsepower and is matched to a silky eight-speed automatic transmission. As a result, the RAV4 gets snappy throttle responses and smooth acceleration.

Fuel

If you want an SUV with competitive EPA ratings, you want the RAV4. Front-wheel drive RAV4s get an EPA-estimated 27 mpg city and 35 mpg highway for a total of 30 mpg combined. Upgrade to an all-wheel drive RAV4, and you can expect an impressive EPA-estimated 28 mpg combined. However, if you want the thriftiest RAV4, get the hybrid with its EPA-estimated 41 mpg in the city and 38 mpg on the highway.

Upgrades

Toyota has made several improvements to the RAV4. The older infotainment system has been dropped in favor of a bigger and more modern display. The new infotainment display is standard on the XLE, XLE Premium, Adventure, and LE trims, measuring 8.0 inches. The largest display available is on the Limited and TRD Off-Road models, measuring 10.5 inches.

The larger display is accompanied by the latest in Toyota’s infotainment software interface. The new interface is easier to use and now receives over-the-air updates. The new infotainment system is compatible with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Lastly, Toyota has added a 7.0-inch display on its gauge cluster.
