2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Woodland Edition Review: Can’t See The Forest For The Trees – SlashGear

So, you get a burlier look, including the same Falken Wildpeak All-Terrain tires as the TRD Off-Road sports, here wrapped around handsome bronze-finish wheels. The suspension is the standard RAV4 setup of independent MacPherson struts up front and multi-link rear, though TRD-tuned, and the ride height is the same 8.1 inches too. Roof rails are standard, but instead of the mechanical all-wheel drive system of the TRD Off-Road, there’s Toyota’s gas-electric hybrid approach instead.

At the front, the 2.5-liter inline-four gas engine and CVT (continuously variable transmission) are combined with an electric motor, to drive the front wheels. A second electric motor is dedicated to the rear wheels, with a small battery — nickel-metal hydride in the Woodland Edition, unlike the lithium-ion in the RAV4 Hybrid XSE — powering the whole thing. The total system power is 219 horsepower. There’s a Trail mode, alongside the standard Normal, Eco, and Sport settings, but not specific snow, sand, or other modes.

Unlike the RAV4 Prime, which is a plug-in hybrid, the RAV4 Hybrid Woodland Edition can’t be externally charged. It gets a far more constrained electric-only range as a result: there’s an EV Mode button, but you’ll only get about a mile of driving with it switched on, at best, and you’ll need to keep the speed down too. Otherwise, it automatically brings the gas engine back into play.
