Toyota’s most popular vehicle, the RAV4 crossover, received a pretty big update for the 2026 model year. The latest small SUV will now offer only hybrid powertrains, ranging from an entry-level 226 horsepower to 320 on plug-in hybrid models. The modernized RAV4 also looks pretty good, with an upright and squared-off design that’s a little more aggressive and rugged than its predecessor. Incidentally, the new styling would look mighty good as a pickup, as proven by the YouTube channel Theottle. Starting with a RAV4 Woodland and using a Brazilian-market Ram Rampage as a template, the unofficial rendering has us hankering for a Toyota-flavored rival to the Hyundai Santa Cruz and Ford Maverick.
