Toyota has expanded its range of RAV4 models on offer in the UK for the 2018 model year.
Most significantly, the 2018 Toyota RAV4 will be available with a hybrid powerplant for every variant and trim level. This expansion of the hybrid family follows on from customer demand for the hybrid RAV4 as two thirds of all UK buyers opt for the petrol-electric hybrid.
For 2018, the RAV4 will be available in Icon, Icon Tech, Design and Excel guises. The Icon model is the cheapest in the range and comes with features including Smart Entry, dusk-sensing headlights, rain-sensing wipers, Toyota Touch 2 multimedia with a seven-inch touchscreen, six-speaker audio and Bluetooth connectivity. The Icon Tech then adds navigation and connectivity functions to the infotainment system.
Next in the range is the RAV4 Design. It sits on 18-inch black alloy wheels and also features LED headlights with automatic levelling. It also comes equipped with black leather and Alcantara upholstery and power-adjustable seats.
Last but not least is the Excel grade. It has bespoke 18-inch wheels, black wing mirror caps, black, beige or grey leather trimmings and a memory seat for the driver. Additionally, it includes a Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert alongside some added infotainment features like voice recognition.
The aforementioned hybrid engine displaces 2.5-liters. For those that don’t want a hybrid, both a 2.0-liter petrol and 2.0-liter diesel are offered across the range.
Pricing for the entry-level RAV4 Icon with front-wheel drive starts at £27,450 ($37,273) while the range-topping Excel Hybrid AWD is priced from £34,985 ($47,504).
