2025 Toyota RAV4 SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2025 Toyota RAV4 is offered in four trim levels: LE, XLE, XLE Premium and Limited. All come with a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine (203 horsepower, 184 lb-ft of torque) paired to an eight-speed automatic transmission. Front-wheel drive is standard and all-wheel drive is optional on all trim levels. Standard feature highlights include:

LE
The entry-level RAV4 LE starts you off with:

  • 17-inch steel wheels
  • LED headlights
  • 8-inch touchscreen interface
  • Apple CarPlay and Android Auto smartphone integration (both with wireless connectivity)
  • Six-speaker sound system
  • Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 suite of driver assist features:
    • Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
    • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the RAV4 and the car in front)
    • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)

XLE
Adds more features such as:

  • 17-inch alloy wheels
  • Intermittent windshield wipers
  • Power liftgate
  • Roof rails
  • Keyless entry and start
  • Power-adjustable driver's seat
  • Blind-spot warning (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
  • Dual-zone automatic climate control


XLE Premium
Dresses up the RAV4 with:

  • LED foglights
  • 19-inch wheels
  • Sunroof
  • Leather-trimmed steering wheel
  • Synthetic leather upholstery (Toyota's SofTex)
  • Stitched trim on doors and center console

Limited
Builds on the XLE Premium equipment list and adds:

  • 12.3-inch digital instrument panel
  • Front and rear parking sensors
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Ambient lighting
  • 10.5-inch touchscreen
  • 11-speaker premium JBL audio system
  • Hill descent control (AWD only)

Notable options are dependent on trim level and include:

  • Surround-view parking camera system (gives you a top-down view of the RAV4 and its surroundings for tight parking situations)
  • Panoramic sunroof
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Wireless charging pad
  • Digital rearview mirror (allows you to see out of the back even with a fully loaded cargo area)
  • Heated front seats
  • Rear outboard heated seats

Which RAV4 trim does Edmunds recommend?

We recommend the XLE trim, which offers an appealing combination of features while keeping the price in check. For about $1,500 more than the base LE trim, it adds a power liftgate, alloy wheels, a blind-spot warning system, a power-adjustable driver's seat, two 120-volt household outlets and more.
