Toyota Rav 4 GR Sport plug-in hybrid

The sports parts of Toyota RAV 4 are designed with the help of the racing department of this brand, which are called TRD for short, and unfortunately, this new version will be released in Japan until further notice. With the recent changes and developments, the Toyota RAV 4GR Sport has lost its family character and has become a street sports car.

It should be noted that the 2026 Rav4 model will reach the American market by the spring of this year, and its early release in Japan has given TRD engineers a good opportunity to implement their ideas. The current changes of Toyota’s popular SUV will not be limited to changes in appearance, but also include technical specifications and under the hood.

We already know that the front spoiler, side skirts and rear diffuser with their gray trims have given this product a violent look, but we must also mention the revolution that took place under the hood. One of the most important of these positive developments is the GR performance shock absorbers, which reduce vibration and increase the car’s compliance. These changes can improve engine performance and provide better output.
