The Toyota RAV-4 has had a complete overhaul and is essentially a brand new car. I don’t think they’ve kept a thing the same. It’s got a brand new design and this GX 2WD I drove even has a hybrid engine, which keeps fuel costs down.
It’s been updated to a sleeker, more modern exterior and the interior looks good too with an industrial finish on the accents: A rugged, rubber trim on climate control knobs, volume knobs and inside the door handle actually really works and makes it feel modern and sophisticated.
This GX model is a hybrid which means it runs on both battery and petrol engine, and you can see when it’s running on what, and how the battery is charged which is pretty cool. Whilst on battery it’s silent, and I wasn’t sure it was even on when I first started the car.
It doesn’t have Apple Carplay or Android Auto yet but it will have by the end of 2019 and you’ll be able to get it retrofitted into the car.
