2020 Toyota RAV4 Trims Comparison

However, the LE and the XLE get RAV4's standard AWD system. The Adventure, the TRD Off-Road and the Limited possess an upgraded system with a torque-vectoring feature that can shift power distribution between the rear wheels to enhance traction when driving on dirt or snowy roads.

You might expect the RAV4 LE, as the base-level trim, to be sparsely equipped, but that's not the case. It comes standard with features such as LED headlights, a variety of driver safety aids (Toyota Safety Sense 2.0), a 7-inch touchscreen interface with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility, a USB port and a six-speaker sound system.

The XLE adds more convenience features such as push-button start, keyless entry, a power-adjustable driver's seat, blind-spot monitoring, dual-zone automatic climate control, and more USB charging ports. Next up is the XLE Premium. It comes with bigger wheels, a slightly raised suspension, a sunroof, a power liftgate, simulated leather upholstery (SofTex), and soft-touch dashboard materials.

The Adventure is a bit special since it adds some styling flourishes along with its extra equipment. On top of the XLE Premium's contents (minus the sunroof and power liftgate), the Adventure has unique wheels, fender flares, taller roof rails, selectable terrain drive modes, hill descent control, and an 8-inch touchscreen, among a few other features.

The new TRD Off-Road model pushes the Adventure's features list further with all-terrain tires, an off-road-tuned suspension, unique black trim elements, the sunroof, the power liftgate and unique interior trim.

The Limited builds on the XLE Premium's equipment with chrome exterior trim and more interior upgrades such as heated front seats, a virtual rearview mirror, the 8-inch touchscreen, a navigation system, and a premium 11-speaker JBL audio system.

Some of the Limited's upgrades can be added to the Adventure, XLE Premium and XLE trim levels through a variety of packages. Other notable options, depending on the trim level, include a surround-view parking camera, a panoramic sunroof, a heated steering wheel, heated and ventilated front seats, and wireless smartphone charging.
