The Toyota RAV4 is a big deal for the Japanese automaker. It’s unequivocally the most successful model in Toyota’s line-up in the US, even to the point that the company has trouble meeting demand. Just as an executive said not long ago, the company wasn’t going to do anything that might jeopardize that demand, so it’s taking a conservative tack with the 2026 model. While Toyota says it’s a new generation, it’s clear that it’s closely related to the outgoing model, just like what Toyota did with the Camry. Still, it comes with plenty of revisions, both aesthetic and mechanical, and it gives America its first-ever GR Sport model.
