Back in 1994, Toyota turned the entire traditional auto world upside down - the first RAV4, in a three-color version, came off the assembly line. Many were skeptical about this car, not believing in its future. But the RAV4 today is perfectly at odds with three generations with many restyling with an amount of 4.5 million copies. And so, Toyota has released a new stallion - the fourth generation RAV4 - 2013. For almost 2 decades of production of this model, a lot of competitors for "RAV4" have appeared in the world, and even though many of them are superior to this model in some way, Toyota is not giving up.

Dimensions, dimensions of the new model

As for the appearance of the new RAV4 2013, it is 155 millimeters longer than its predecessor, if you recall the first model, then by almost half a meter. Also, the new car has become wider by 30 mm, the base has increased by 100 mm. In total, its real dimensions are as follows:

length - 4570 mm;
width - 1845 mm;
height - 1670 mm.

The car looks sweeping, and much more solid than its predecessors, and taking into account the large bumper, it is even more aggressive. Sharp edges, new slanting lighting technology, flatter panels - all this raises the design of the car to a new level, which, according to the creators, will attract more male attention. After all, statistics show that 2/3 of all RAV4 owners are representatives of the fairer sex.

The rear end has undergone a revolutionary change. Then the spare wheel from the door moved under the boot floor, and the door opens like all crossovers now - up. The style of the jeep has been lost, but in this class the manufacturers believe that it is more convenient, and in addition to everything, the door will stop "loosening", which is typical for the previous models. The taillights have become very expressive due to their complex stretched shape. The trunk is completed not only with the usual removable mesh, but also with various fastening devices. The hatch, which is in the wall, gives access to the jack. The spare wheel is located under the boot floor, which is now very high, and with the seats folded out, you can see a large flat area. After the spare wheel leaves the door, the rear window can hardly be called panoramic. The new "RAV4" has a protective plastic body kit, which is located along the entire body kit and along the arches of all fenders.
