Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The 2026 RAV4 PHEV adopts the updated 2.5-liter inline four-cylinder engine (rated at 186 horsepower, up from 177 hp last year) from the standard RAV4, and the PHEV benefits from a larger 22.7-kwh battery pack (from 18.1 kwh) and smaller, more efficient silicon carbide semiconductors in the power control unit.
• Tech: The RAV4 PHEV has a new 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster and an enhanced 10.5-inch touchscreen system, while the digital displays are standard, as are wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.

• Starting price: It was only sold in two trims last year, starting at just over $46,000 for the base SE.
