Ever-evolving safety technology

The All-New RAV4 is among the first to feature the new Toyota Safety Sense[S1], our most advanced suite of safety technologies. Compatible with remote updates so you and your passengers can always feel protected, now and into the future.

3D parking visibility

On XSE, Cruiser and GR Sport, a new three-dimensional Panoramic View Monitor[S1] offers a more complete view of the area surrounding the vehicle, making parking swifter, safer and more satisfying.

Blind spots covered

Reduced collision risk

Designed to minimise the risk of a collision with crossing traffic, the new Front Cross Traffic Alert (FCTA)[S1] feature uses built-in sensors and radars to recognise hazards at intersections and warn the driver.
