Toyota Motor Philippines has launched the latest RAV4, with a new front fascia and upgraded features. Here’s the news from Toyota: This December, the number one automotive company in the country launches a new dimension of action as seen in the new Toyota Rav4. First introduced in the Philippines in 1997, the vehicle has long been known as the reliable SUV that mirrors the active, sporty, youthful and stylish lifestyle of its owners. The iconic name was derived from the first letters of the words: Recreational, Active, Vehicle and it being a 4×4. This month, Toyota unveils the new 2016 Rav4 boasting its refreshed look and other exciting enhancements making it the best version to date.
In order to cater to ever-changing needs and desires of the Rav4 customers, Toyota now offers a new grade line-up for this specific model: the 4×2 Active, the 4×2 Active+, the 4×2 Premium and the 4×4 Premium. The new exterior design aims to capture the essence of a compact SUV’s agile and sporty character by adding a sense of excitement expressed by the RAV4 DNA. Unconstrained and filled with a youthful vibe, the new RAV4 is visually more powerful than ever before as seen in its new front bumper design across all grades. It is also equipped with a brand new set of stylish 17” aluminium wheels and tires with low rolling resistance that contribute to better fuel efficiency. Both the 4×2 Premium and 4×4 Premium on the other hand now possess Daytime Running-Lights, LED headlamps and headlamp levelling for a more sophisticated and sportier look.
The all-new RAV4 is powered by the same reliable 2.5-liter, Dual VVT-i (Dual Variable Valve Timing-intelligent) engine which aims to achieve fuel economy, high engine output and decreased fuel emissions. The engine produces 180 ps and 233 Nm of torque. Furthermore, it still carries an excellent acceleration performance particularly from low to high speeds with its 6-speed automatic gearbox.
With the Rav4 being a Toyota, safety is never a second priority. The New Rav4 now holds additional safety features such as knee airbags aside from its standard front, side and curtain airbags (available on the Premium models). Moreover, advanced safety features, have been added such as VSC (vehicle stability control), HAC (Hill-Climb Assist Control) and DAC (Downhill Assist Control.)
