Upgrade to RAV4

A revised Toyota RAV4 is now available in Ireland.

The changes include some styling improvements inside and out, and there are new engines.

A new 158hp 2.0 petrol engine, available in FWD and AWD vehicles, is now in Band E instead of F for taxation terms. The revised 2.2 diesel has had a dramatic cut in CO2 emissions and is now a Band C car in taxation terms.

There's also more power, a 10 percent improvement to 150hp.

The entry Luna version gets Toyota's vehicle stability control system.

Prices now range from €30,570 for the diesel Luna to €38,750 for the 2.0 petrol in Sol grade with automated manual transmission.
