The 2013 RAV4 captures the spirit of freedom that began with the original RAV4, yet breaks new ground in refinement, practicality and technology. With expressive styling and a roomy, comfortable interior, RAV4 is decidedly refined—but with agile handling and all-weather capability, it’s still ready for adventure whenever you are.
So, What's New?
 |
A fresh facePart of RAV4’s new attitude comes from a handsome front-end design with a chrome-accented grille, projector-beam headlights and Daytime Running Lights (DRL) that make you more visible to other drivers. On RAV4 Limited, you get auto on/off headlights as well as integrated fog lights that help you cut through the haze.

 |
LiftgateWe improved both the looks and functionality of RAV4 by giving the traditional rear-mounted spare a new home underneath the cargo floor. So now, RAV4 has a true liftgate that opens up instead of out, making cargo loading easier. And if you go for RAV4 Limited, you’ll get a power liftgate with jam protection that even offers height adjustment.
|
 |
Front seatsRAV4’s front seats are easily adjustable to suit your preferences. If you want more of a good thing, RAV4 Limited’s driver’s seat offers 8-way power adjustability with memory function and power lumbar support for long-haul comfort.
|
 |
Reclining rear seatTreat your friends and family like first-class passengers. With the pull of a handle, they can recline the rear seatbacks and enjoy the ride. With the available Smart Key fob in your pocket or purse, you can unlock the front doors and liftgate with just a touch, and start the engine with the push of a button. You can also lock and unlock the doors and/or liftgate remotely with the Smart Key fob.

 |
Steering wheel-mounted controlsRAV4’s standard tilt/telescopic steering wheel features integrated controls for the things you use most, like the audio system, Bluetoothhands-free phone and Multi-Information Display. RAV4 Limited comes standard with a power rear liftgate featuring jam protection, plus a handy height-adjustment feature. Simply raise the liftgate to your ideal height, then press and hold the cargo door button for two seconds until a confirmation beep sounds. Now, whether you open the liftgate via release or key fob, it will open to the desired height every time.
|
 |
Cargo capacityEven with all the leg room offered by RAV4’s interior, there’s still plenty of room for your gear. In fact, you can stow up to 38.4 cubic feet of cargo with the rear seatbacks in their upright position. When you find a treasure that’s too big to fit in the cargo area, you can fold the second-row seats in seconds. Just pull the handle up and lower the seatbacks to create a wide, flat load space with 73.4 cubic feet of cargo capacity.
|
 |
Low load heightA low, flat-load floor is flush with the rear bumper, making it easy to load heavy or awkward cargo.
|
 |
Available Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic AlertWhen BSM detects a vehicle, it warns you with a flashing indicator light on the appropriate outside mirror. RCTA works in much the same way. When you slowly back out of a driveway or parking spot, it provides audible and visual indicators to warn you of approaching vehicles.

|
Improved visibilityRAV4’s hood gently slopes down from the windshield to give you the best possible view of your surroundings. It’s a subtle detail that improves visibility for enhanced awareness and safety.
