What Are the Differences Between the 2022 RAV4 Trims?

Toyota hasn’t held much back even from the RAV4’s base trim when it comes to standard driver assist technology and luxury amenities.

Virtually all these listed features are carried forward or upgraded into the next trim with the exception of the available XLE Premium Package and the TRD Off-Road Edition.
