Since its creation the RAV4 has remained a strong choice for crossover SUV shoppers. The RAV4's sporty handling, strong fuel economy figures and spacious cabin make it a must-see.
Whether you need to run errands or want to go on a weekend adventure, the RAV4 has everything you need no matter what life throws your way.
For 2019 the Toyota RAV4 receives a full redesign with a new platform and refined engine in addition to a wide variety of new premium features.
While the RAV4 keeps its signature charm, it's all-new and is very different than the 2018 model. With that said, what is the difference between the 2019 Toyota RAV4 vs. 2018?

Perhaps the most noticeable difference between the 2019 and 2018 Toyota RAV4 models is the styling. The 2019 RAV4 receives a fresh new look complete with sharper, more athletic curves and is built using a new platform from the Camry. The result is a slightly longer and wider RAV4.
At the heart of both the 2019 and 2018 RAV4 models is a powerful 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. Front-wheel drive is standard while all-wheel drive is optional. Hybrid models also receive the 2.5-liter engine paired with Toyota's Hybrid System powertrains with more power and stronger fuel economy figures for 2019.
Speaking of the Hybrid model, Toyota has added an all-new XSE trim for 2019. It's regarded as the sportiest RAV4 in the lineup and comes equipped with projector-beam LED headlamps, piano-black exterior accents and two-tone exterior paint options.
