2021 Toyota RAV4 vs. 2020 Toyota RAV4

Crossover SUVs are primarily judged on how much space is available in the passenger cabin. Both the 2021 Toyota RAV4 and the 2020 version will offer identical measurements for people and their cargo. Toyota has retained the two-row, five-passenger design for the 2021 RAV4. Any passenger sitting in any of those positions will have some of the most available legroom found in the class. That spacious design has clearly been translated into the platform’s cargo-hauling ability. When two or three people are sitting in the backseat, each model year of the RAV4 will offer 37.5 cubic-feet of cargo volume. Moving the seats around for maximum cargo capacity will open the rear of the vehicle up to 69.8 cubic-feet. 

There are very few other automakers who have been as committed to equipping their lineup with the latest connectivity technology available as Toyota. Like its 2020 predecessor, the 2021 Toyota RAV4 will be universally equipped with a smartphone-compatible infotainment system that will have standard access to both the Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ suites of applications. Additionally, every 2021 RAV4 will also offer owners the option of activating an onboard high-speed Wi-Fi hotspot. 

Performance/Fuel Economy 

Every 2021 Toyota RAV4 for sale or lease at the Colonial Toyota showroom will use the same powertrain. A naturally aspirated 2.5-liter, four-cylinder engine will be placed under the hood that will be attached to an eight-speed automatic transmission. It will make 203 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. Depending on which of the several trim grades of the 2021 RAV4 a customer purchases, it can record up to 28 miles per gallon in the city and up to 35 miles per gallon on the highway. The 2020 version offers the exact same scores and specs.
