It says off-road right in the name, so it only stands to reason that the RAV4 TRD Off-Road would have some impressive off-road features. This model builds on the already capable Adventure trim with standard all-wheel drive and an 8.6-inch ground clearance.

The wheels are exclusive to this model with a lightweight 18-inch flow-formed TRD design that comes in a stunning matte-black. Mounted on these wheels you get Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail all-terrain tires. These tires aren’t normal off-the-shelf options. Falken designed them to meet the rugged requirements of the TRD line.

The suspension is just as important as the tires and wheels it rides on. Here, you get a TRD-engineered suspension that was designed to enhance body control with off-road coil springs and twin-tube shocks that have been re-valved to maximize control.

On the outside, the TRD Off-Road trim takes many styling cues from the Adventure trim but dials them up with dark gray front and rear fascias. Of course, just like on the inside, you get to sport TRD badging on back, and all the badging is blacked out.
