The petrol engines are paired with a 7-speed PDK transmission from ZF. It is a wet-type dual-clutch robotic gearbox. PDK has proven itself to be very reliable. It breaks very rarely. The other side of the coin is that in the event of a malfunction, it is not easy to find someone who will undertake the repair.

7-band PDK

The diesel engine was combined exclusively with an 8-speed Tiptronic S automatic transmission. This gearbox is also quite durable. The first problems may arise after 250-300 thousand km.

Toyota Rav 4 2nd generation (2000 – 2005)

Rav 4 XA20 is a second generation car that retains permanent all-wheel drive. Compared to its predecessor, the crossover began to look more solid; changes also affected the size of the car itself. The RAV4 also received a 1.8 petrol engine with an output of 125 hp. The two-liter engine produced from 150 to 155 hp. A version with diesel 2.0 1CD-FTV was supplied to the European market.

The palette of engines installed on the Rav 4 has become richer (the addition occurred after the 2003 restyling):

  • 1.8 l 1ZZ-FE;
  • 2.0 l 1AZ-FE and 1AZ-FSE;
  • 2.4 l 2AZ-FE and 2AZ-FSE;
  • 2.0 L D-4D.

The history of the XA20 model dates back to 2000. There have been complaints about the second generation Toyota RAV4 regarding the operation of the automatic machine. The concern announced a recall campaign due to defective ECUs. The box itself, which the car was equipped with, is considered reliable. The problem was solved, but the reputation was damaged.

What is clearance

Ground clearance is the ground clearance of the Toyota Rav 4 between the lowest part of the vehicle and the ground. But most often the Japanese manufacturer measures this distance in its own way. Therefore, this distance may be much less for the 2021 Toyota Rav 4 than is written in the car’s operating book.

The ground clearance of the Toyota Rav 4 affects the vehicle's cross-country ability. For example, low-slung vehicles will not go over potholes and country roads where the road is too rough.

Tractors that plow virgin soil have the highest ground clearance. On some tractors the ground clearance will be 700 mm. And, for example, cotton growing - 2000 mm. On Russian and Soviet UAZs - 300 mm.

On foreign cars it is much less. Foreign manufacturers increase ground clearance only for SUVs. These include:

  • Ford Pajero;
  • Toyota Land Cruiser 200;
  • Toyota Land Cruiser Prado;
  • Nyundai Tuskon and some others.

Some cars, for example the Land Cruiser 200, can change the ground clearance on their own. This is done to ensure that the vehicle is stable on smooth roads. Because a high center of mass reduces the car's handling. This is dangerous at high speeds.

Attention! On the 2021 Toyota Rav, the distance between the ground and the bottom of the car is 195 mm

Specifications

Japanese developers used the new TNGA architecture as the basis for the production of the fifth-generation SUV. This allowed not only to reconsider the range of available crossover capabilities, but also to optimally configure the rear suspension, which has a multi-link design. At the front there are independent MacPherson struts as usual. The braking system of the Japanese cross is represented by disc mechanisms at the front and rear (the front ones are supplemented with a ventilation system), as well as an electronic parking brake. To simplify the process of driving a car, the developers equipped it with an electric power steering wheel.

As available power units, the manufacturer provides the possibility of installing 2 and 2.5 liter engines. The younger engine has a performance of 149 horsepower and a torque of 206 N*m. It can be paired with a 6-speed manual transmission or a CVT, and front-wheel or all-wheel drive is used as the drive. The 2.5-liter engine, producing 199 horsepower and 243 Nm of torque, is paired exclusively with an 8-speed automatic transmission, as well as an all-wheel drive system.

Despite classifying the car as a compact SUV, its dimensions cannot be called miniature:

  • body size – 4 600x1 855x1 685 (1690) mm;
  • weight – from 1,570 to 1,720 kg;
  • ground clearance - 195 mm;
  • center distance – 2,690 mm;

Advantages and disadvantages

The first months of using the car revealed its advantages compared to the previous version.

The owners consider the main advantage of the updated performance characteristics of the RAV4 to be a significant improvement in engine performance. The improved power unit allowed the SUV to improve its dynamic characteristics. Fuel consumption has not increased.

The modified body with an increased wheelbase has become more stable on the road. Increased ground clearance and reduced front overhangs of the car improved cross-country ability. The improved suspension made overcoming obstacles smoother. The luggage compartment of the SUV has increased significantly.

The appearance of the car has improved, it has become more brutal. The body has become more angular with sharply prominent edges. The SUV received improved diode optics.

The quality of the interior has improved. The interior is decorated with soft, wear-resistant plastic that is pleasant to the touch. The leather used for interior trim has become smoother and more elastic, resistant to dirt.

When purchasing a car, owners hoped that automakers would eliminate the shortcomings inherent in earlier versions.

It remains in the new version. This was especially felt by fans of fast and dynamic driving. At speeds over 120 km/h, the noise increases and the rear view mirrors and roof rails begin to “sound”.

During the advertising campaign, the developers, in the description of the new version, promised a significant reduction in fuel consumption due to an improved gasoline engine. In practice, no reduction in consumption is observed. Gasoline consumption data remained at the same level.

Among the shortcomings is the lack of a full-size spare wheel on the SUV.

Owners do not have completely negative opinions about the new release of RAV4. The advantages of the new model in all respects more than cover the minor disadvantages.

Options and prices

Localization of production of the 2021 Toyota RAV 4 in a new body, in which the Japanese concern invested 9.7 billion rubles, made it possible to achieve the most favorable level of configurations and prices for the new model of the future crossover.

Despite the general decline in the automobile market, restyling has benefited the new crossover, because this year the sales growth of the Japanese car was 5%, and with the commissioning of the assembly line in St. Petersburg, a further improvement in this indicator should be expected. In addition, the St. Petersburg assembly allowed the enterprise to reach its designed capacity, creating an additional 800 jobs. The expansion of production and the increase in the number of models sold did not in any way affect the quality of the Japanese new product: the technical characteristics became better, and the modifications became more equipped.

Toyota RAV4 I (XA10).

The history of the RAV4 model begins in 1989.
At this year's Tokyo Motor Show, Toyota presented its new concept car, the RAV Four. The new model was positioned as a car for youth active recreation, a beach SUV. RAV is an abbreviation of the English phrase Recreation Active Vehicle (Russian decoding - a car for active recreation), Four (Russian four) - implies all-wheel drive on a car. The production of the serial model began in 1994, the name did not change, only the word “Four” was replaced with a number and everything began to be written together - RAV4.

The car was one of the first models of compact crossovers, combining the comfort of passenger cars and the cross-country ability of SUVs. At first, the RAV4 was a three-door car, but already in 1995 an extended five-door version of the car was released.

Photos of bodiesDescription of generation or restyling
2 (II) XA20 2000-2005The appearance of the car has changed for the better, the quality of the interior has become higher, and comfort has increased. Already in the basic configuration there was air conditioning, heated seats, and front airbags. Optionally, the brake system was equipped with ABS. Three-door and five-door versions were produced.
3 (III) XA30 2005 – 2008Due to the transition of the RAV4 base to a new automobile platform, the three-door version of the model disappeared. The dimensions of the car increased to 4395 mm in length and 1815 mm in width. The all-wheel drive of the car is no longer permanent, but switchable, automatically - in case of slipping of the front wheels, or manually forcibly - using the lock button. The rear wheels are disabled at speeds above 40 km/h and if the viscous coupling overheats.
1 restyling XA30 2008 – 2010The design of the car has been slightly changed. The range of options has become wider: turn signals in the side mirrors, satellite navigation, dual-zone climate control, etc. The 2L engine has been modernized with an integrated valve timing system. The length of the RAV4 has become 4445 mm.
2 restyling XA30 2010 – 2012The appearance of the car has been changed, the radiator grille has been integrated into the front bumper, and the optics of the car have changed. The manual transmission now has a six-speed gearbox, previously there were 5 steps. In Russia, the CVT replaced the automatic gearbox, and in 2011, to reduce transport tax, the two-liter 3ZR-FAE engine became 148 hp. (instead of 158 hp)
4 (IV) XA40 2012 – 2015Once again the external design has changed. The spare tire, previously mounted on the rear door, was hidden in the trunk, and the rear door itself became liftable rather than detachable from the side. The dimensions of the fourth generation RAV 4 are as follows: length - 4570 mm, width - 1845 mm, height - 1670 mm, ground clearance - 197 mm.
Restyling IV generation 2015 – 2018The LED headlights and taillights, the speedometer dial, and the information display have been transformed. Technical characteristics, photos of the fourth generation Toyota RAV4 restyling can be viewed here.

New opportunities

Passable

Reduced overhangs and improved body geometry make it not only easy to park, but also to climb steep hills without fear.

Increasing ground clearance of Toyota RAV4

If the ground clearance is reduced, the engine and gearbox are at risk.

To protect the bottom, durable linings are used that can withstand impacts from stones and protrusions on the surface. RAV 4 ground clearance (clearance) is increased in the following ways:

Install wheels with high profile tires. The body rises by 2-3 cm

This method is used with caution: the speedometer may give incorrect readings due to the larger radius of the wheels. Use longer springs and shock absorbers

Such design changes may void the factory warranty. A high seating position moves the car's center of mass, reducing stability when cornering and when driving at speed. Replace suspension arms to increase ground clearance. Work is performed only in a car service center. Such changes reduce controllability and create problems during technical inspection.

To increase the ground clearance of the Toyota RAV 4, car enthusiasts often choose spacers. These are cylindrical polyurethane inserts for sagging springs. These devices are selected at such a height as to restore ground clearance. Spacers that are too large can render shock absorbers unusable and damage CV joints.

If the ground clearance of the Toyota RAV 4 decreases as a result of operation, it is possible to restore the previous level. But a significant increase in the vehicle's landing position will lead to loss of controllability and even an accident.
