2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid: Choosing the Right Trim

The 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid looks and acts just like its gas-only counterpart, demonstrating superior fuel economy ratings, especially in around-town driving. The gas/electric hybrid powertrain works seamlessly and, unlike an electric vehicle, won’t give you range anxiety so long as there’s gas in the tank.

The RAV4 Hybrid comes in seven trims, each costing about $1,600 more across the board than a non-hybrid RAV4 equivalent trim. There are two additional trims unique to the hybrid.

Compared to the gas-only RAV4, the hybrid gains more horsepower and standard all-wheel drive (AWD). It also substitutes a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT) for the non-hybrid’s excellent 8-speed automatic.

As hybrid vehicles continue to gain converts, several other gas-electric compact SUVs stand ready to challenge the RAV4 Hybrid. They include the Ford Escape Hybrid, Honda CR-V Hybrid, Kia Sportage Hybrid, and the Hyundai Tucson Hybrid.

What’s New:

Army Green paint is now an option on the Woodland Edition trim, which also gains a standard Activity Mount for carrying bike rakes or cargo carriers weighing no more than 110 pounds.

The Woodland Edition also gets a new Weather Package, which adds a heated leather-trimmed steering wheel, heated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, and front wiper de-icers.

Our Recommendation:

The Toyota RAV4 XLE Premium Hybrid delivers an excellent combination of features, pricing, and optional equipment. However, if you want a sportier look and a few more bells and whistles, the XSE or Limited is the way to go.

As for the Woodland Edition, it’s an excellent idea, but it can’t go off-roading in the way the gas-powered TRD Off Road or Adventure can, and it feels somewhat sparse regarding features.

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid LE: $31,475

Like all RAV4 Hybrid grades, the LE features a 2.5-liter 4-cylinder engine paired with two electric motors (one up front and one powering the rear wheels) for a combined output of 219 horsepower. Power runs through a continuously variable automatic transmission (CVT).

Among the LE’s five drive modes is an EV mode for running solely on electric power and a Trail mode for venturing off-road.

From here, the hybrid LE follows the same content and options as its non-hybrid twin. That means Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 comes standard, bringing vital driver assists such as forward-collision warning with pedestrian detection, automatic emergency braking, lane-departure warning, lane-keeping assist, and adaptive cruise control.

Automatic high-beam headlights, traffic sign recognition, a rearview monitor, hill-start assist, and eight airbags are standard.

A quick walk around the exterior reveals 17-inch alloy wheels, a rear wiper/washer, intermittent wipers, keyless entry, dark-tinted privacy glass, and LED headlights.

The LE’s interior features cloth seating with manual front seats, a 60/40-split reclining fold-flat rear seat, a tilt/telescoping steering wheel, one-touch up/down power windows, and dual-zone automatic climate control.

A hybrid-oriented gauge cluster includes a digital speedometer with an analog hybrid power meter separated by a 7-inch multi-information display.

The LE gets an updated infotainment system this year. It features an 8-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM satellite radio, and a 6-speaker stereo. The system includes Toyota Connected Services, which enables access to cloud-based navigation, remote start, a Wi-Fi hot spot, and various emergency services.

ToyotaCare free scheduled maintenance covers two years or 25,000 miles, with free roadside assistance for two years and unlimited miles.

The RAV4 Hybrid LE has only a few optional upgrades, the most important being a blind-spot monitor and rear cross-traffic detection.

Adding the $1,350 destination fee brings the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid LE to $32,825. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment works out to $590. See 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid LE models for sale

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid LE includes:

Dual-zone climate control – The LE’s automatic climate control features separate settings for the driver and passenger.

Adaptive cruise control – When engaged, the adaptive cruise control maintains a set distance from the vehicle ahead, slowing as traffic slows and speeding up to the set speed when the coast is clear.

Automatic high-beams – The RAV4 Hybrid’s high-beam headlights can illuminate in low-light situations or automatically dim when sensing another vehicle in the area.

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE: $32,985

For less than $30 more each month, the XLE offers the features and options most buyers prefer.

Adding to the LE’s content, the XLE touts heated power side mirrors, variable intermittent wipers, and a Smart Key proximity key fob that unlocks the doors when touching either front door handle.

A blind-spot monitor and rear cross-traffic alert come standard.

The driver upgrades to an 8-way power seat with power lumbar support and a push-button starter, while rear seat passengers enjoy two USB charge ports. The XLE’s sun visors feature sliding extensions, and the cargo bay gains a tonneau cover and 12-volt outlet.

XLE buyers can opt for a power moonroof, a height-adjustable power liftgate, heated front seats, rain-sensing wipers with de-icers, and a heated, leather-wrapped steering wheel.

Adding the $1,350 destination fee brings the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE to $34,335. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment works out to $617. See 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE models for sale

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE includes:

Blind-spot monitor – This handy feature warns the driver of adjacent vehicles hiding in the RAV4’s blind spots.

Heated side mirrors – Folks who must live in areas with real winters will appreciate side mirrors that melt ice and snow.

Power driver’s seat – The XLE’s power driver seat affords greater latitude in finding a comfortable driving position. Includes 2-way power lumbar for better lower back support.

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Woodland Edition: $34,695

The Woodland Edition brings a bit of ruggedness to the hybrid side of the RAV4 family. Please don’t mistake this for a hybrid version of the TRD Off-Road, as it doesn’t have a heavy-duty suspension, multi-terrain modes, or torque-vectoring AWD.

The Woodland Edition begins as the XLE, adding 18-inch TRD bronze alloy wheels, Falken Wildpeak A/T tires, integrated LED fog lights, a rear-mounted Activity Mount (not intended for towing), and dual black chromed-tipped exhaust.

The interior retains the cloth seats but gets a few more outdoorsy add-ons, like Woodland all-weather floor mats and cargo bay liner, plus a 120V/100W A/C power outlet in the cargo bay.

The Woodland Grade Weather Package adds a heated leather-trimmed steering wheel, heated front seats, rain-sensing wipers, and front wiper de-icers.

Adding the $1,350 destination fee brings the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Woodland Edition to $36,045. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment works out to $648. See 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Woodland Edition models for sale

Interior enhancements include soft-touch padding on the dash and armrests, synthetic SofTex leather upholstery, and a leather-trimmed steering wheel and shift knob.

Adding the $1,350 destination fee brings the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE Premium to $37,225. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment works out to $669. See 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XLE Premium models for sale

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SE: $34,170

The SE grade adds a sporty look to the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. It features most of the XLE’s standard equipment. Still, it distances itself with 18-inch black alloy wheels, bi-LED headlights, a sport suspension, a black-painted lower bumper, mirror caps, over-fenders, and rocker panels.

The SE’s cabin shows off stylish black cloth seat fabric with blue stitching, the latter appearing on the dash and doors. Blue ambient lighting completes the look.

Options for the SE are the same as the XLE.

Adding the $1,350 destination fee brings the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SE to $35,520. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment works out to $638. See 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SE models for sale

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE: $37,135

Interior upgrades for this RAV4 Hybrid configuration include SofTex-trimmed seats with blue stitching, heated front seats, an overhead console, a 10.5-inch multimedia touchscreen, and additional blue ambient lighting in the doors, footwells, and dash bins.

Optional equipment includes the Smart Key system on all four door handles, a foot-activated power liftgate, a 360-degree Panoramic View monitor, front and rear park assist (with braking), and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.

Also available is a wireless charging pad and an 11-speaker JBL audio system.

Adding the $1,350 destination fee brings the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE to $38,485. On a 60-month loan at 5% financing and $0 down, the monthly payment works out to $692. See 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE models for sale

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE includes:

Power liftgate – Opens with the touch of a button and can be upgraded to a foot-activated system for even easier access.

10.5-inch touchscreen – Provides more feature and customization options, plus a more prominent display for maps, apps, and info.

Available digital cluster – The 12.3-inch configurable instrument cluster looks right at home in the XSE.

2024 Toyota Hybrid Limited: $39,780

The Limited is the most luxurious RAV4 Hybrid. It builds off the XLE Premium with 18-inch bright alloy wheels, side mirror puddle lamps, and bi-LED projector-style headlights.

An upgraded cabin adds heated and ventilated front seats, dark brown accents and stitching, a 2-position driver’s seat memory, and a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster.

The larger 10.5-inch touchscreen comes standard in Limited, as does the 11-speaker JBL audio system, an auto-dimming rearview mirror, and front and rear parking sensors with braking.

Limited buyers can opt for a foot-activated power liftgate, a 360-degree Panoramic View monitor, a panoramic glass moonroof, rain-sensing wipers with de-icers, a heated steering wheel, heated rear outboard seats, and a wireless charging pad.
