2020 Toyota RAV4 Review

The standard 2.5L engine equipped with Dual Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (Dual VV-i) provides drivers with 203 horsepower and 184 lb-ft of torque. To assure that you can use this power wherever the road takes you, the 2020 Toyota RAV4 has several performance features, such as:

• Multi-terrain Select

Similar to the standard selectable drive modes, available Multi-terrain Select allows you to select a mode tailored to the type of terrain you’re driving on. The modes offered with this feature include MUD & SAND, ROCK & DIRT, SNOW, and NORMAL.

By using these drive modes, your 2020 RAV4 will automatically adjust its traction, throttle response, and brake pressure to each wheel. Then, the RAV4 will maintain traction no matter what terrain you’re traveling on.
