Hybrids
More Choice
Now you can choose between the powerful and efficient 2021 RAV4 Hybrid electric, and the all-new cutting edge 2021 RAV4 Prime – the quickest, most powerful and fuel-efficient RAV4 yet.
2021 RAV4 Hybrid
Built in Canada, RAV4 Hybrids are as fun-to-drive as they are fuel efficient. Available in four unique models including the super sporty XSE and exceptionally refined Limited.
Electronic On-Demand All Wheel Drive (AWD)
It’s all wheel drive like you’ve never experienced before. With a dedicated electric motor at each wheel, Hybrid models channel torque where you need it most based on driving conditions -- from 100 percent to the front wheels, to an even 50:50 split between front and rear. The result is superior traction when the going gets tough, and exceptional handling and stability when accelerating and cornering.
EV, ECO & Sport Modes
With the simple twist of a dial, you can go from high-efficiency to high-spirited driving.
Sport-Tuned
With its sport-tuned suspension, RAV4 XSE serves up exceptional handling to go along with its fast-paced nature.
Hybrid Power & Efficiency
Boasting more horsepower and faster acceleration than gas-powered models, RAV4 Hybrid lets you go further and do more. Thanks to the next generation hybrid system that works in sync with the 2.5-litre Dynamic Force Engine to deliver an impressive balance of energy efficiency and power output.

Performance
Active Torque All Wheel Drive
RAV4 AWD LE and AWD XLE feature an active torque all wheel drive system that shifts from front wheel drive to all wheel drive as soon as the system senses wheel slippage. You save on fuel when the going is good, and get enhanced traction the moment you need it. Seamlessly and automatically.
Multi-Terrain Select
Answer the call of the wild. Multi-Terrain Select takes RAV4’s highly evolved four-wheel drive performance to a new level. The system allows you to select from four modes then regulates wheel spin accordingly to give you maximum traction on the most challenging terrain -- including mud, sand, rocks, and dirt. Standard on all AWD gas models.
Dynamic Force Engine
Powered by a 2.5-litre 4-cylinder Dynamic Force Engine, RAV4 gas models put more power at your disposal, while getting more out of every litre. Paired to a direct shift 8-speed automatic transmission, RAV4 delivers sportier acceleration, better fuel economy, and a smoother more responsive ride.
Dynamic Torque Vectoring All Wheel Drive
RAV4 Trail and Limited (gas only) feature Dynamic Torque Vectoring All Wheel Drive with Rear Driveline Disconnect. A Toyota first, the system can send up to 50% of engine torque to the rear wheels, plus distribute it to the left or right rear wheel for exceptional control. When it isn’t needed, the system ingeniously transmits all driving force to the front wheels -- reducing energy loss, improving fuel efficiency, and smoothing out the ride.
Stop & Start Engine System
RAV4 LE AWD, XLE AWD, and XLE FWD feature a Stop & Start engine system that helps to improve fuel economy, especially in city driving with its many stops and starts. The system automatically stops the engine while the vehicle is stopped temporarily such as at traffic signals. The engine automatically restarts when you release the brake pedal. There’s no extra steps that you have to take, just fewer stops for fuel along the way.
Safety
Toyota Safety SenseTM 2.0
RAV4 leads the pack when it comes to safety. All 2021 models come standard with TSS 2.0 ‐‐ featuring advanced active-safety technologies and capabilities that enhance protection and support your awareness and decision making under a variety of conditions and contingencies.
Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist** & Road Edge Detection
The 2021 RAV4 Prime adds to your peace of mind by adding lane departure alert with steering assist & road edge detection to TSS 2.0’s suite of active safety technologies. This system alerts you if you start to drift out of your lane when visible lane markings or the road edge is detected. The Steering Assist function may also provide small corrective steering inputs.
** Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist is designed to read lane markers under certain conditions and provide visual and audible alerts and slight steering force when lane departure is detected. It is not a collision-avoidance system or a substitute for safe and attentive driving
8 Airbags
Should the unexpected or unavoidable occur, RAV4 and RAV4 Hybrid help cushion the blow with a network of eight strategically placed airbags, including: dual stage airbags for driver and passenger, driver’s knee, passenger seat cushion and front and rear side curtain airbags.
Parking Assistance
