Although the current RAV4 only landed in the domestic market in 2019, judging from the pace of RAV4 model upgrading, the new model may not be far away. Recently, some foreign automotive media released a hypothetical picture of a new generation of RAV4, which attracted the attention of many netizens for a while.
In the imaginary picture of the new RAV4, the appearance very similar to the Prado model is the biggest highlight, with rectangular headlights, retro grille, and thick bumpers, which make the whole car look wild, and even the wheel shape has a bit of off-road style.
In the hypothetical picture of the new RAV4 from another angle, you can see that the design of the tail light cluster is very bold, which is also linked to the sense of technology that Toyota is constantly trying, and the straighter body line allows the headroom to be expressed.
After all, after the success of the C-HR in the European market, the RAV4 model can also abandon some city-friendly fashion design and focus more on markets such as North America and Australia.
Interestingly, a hypothetical image of the all-new RAV4 GR version has also been revealed, with the front part also copying the Prado, and the rear part being more rugged. Perhaps, this is also another design idea.
At the same time as releasing the hypothetical picture, the foreign automotive media also said that the all-new RAV4 is likely to cancel the pure fuel power. But from a practical point of view, even if the gasoline-electric hybrid model becomes very popular in 2023, it will not prompt Toyota to only come up with a hybrid version in continental markets such as North America, Australia, West Asia and China - after all, in regions like Europe and Japan, hybrid models are indeed very advantageous, but if you need to travel long distances, fuel models will not only not lag too far behind in energy consumption, but also have the benefits of easy maintenance.
At the same time, now the domestic RAV4 Rongfang can sell nearly 190,000 units in the past year, and the fuel version must be indispensable. What's more, the Camry has evolved from the 8th generation to the 9th generation, and the powertrain has not changed drastically.
Finally, there is also bad news to be announced, if the new RAV4 is not as hypothetical as the above-mentioned hypothetical to please consumers in North America, Australia, and West Asia, and chooses the same old bottle as the Camry, then the actual car is likely to be more like the hypothetical picture released by another foreign automotive media.
