2024 Toyota RAV4
Toyota has made no changes to its RAV4 for 2024. It's Australia's best-selling SUV, and a majority of Toyota RAV4 sales are of the fuel-sipping hybrid variant. That makes it one of Australia's most popular hybrid vehicles, in addition to one of the few hybrid mid-sized SUVs on the market.
The range opens up with the RAV4 GX 2WD from $39,760 before on-road costs and extends to $58,360 before on-road costs for the flagship RAV4 Edge Hybrid AWD.
