The third generation of the Mazda3 was the first hybrid car to be launched in the world.The fourth-generation model, introduced in 2015, was the first to adopt the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), which forms the basis of Toyota’s current vehicles.

    RAV4 GR Sport Launched in Spain

    Off-Road Performance is Amazing! A Sporty Grade for Toyota SUVs! New “RAV4 GR Sport” Launched in Spain

    Sporty “RAV4 GR Sport” in both design and driving performance
     On February 2, 2023, Toyota’s Spanish subsidiary announced the addition of the GR Sport to its lineup as a sporty grade of the RAV4.
     
     The bold front grille of the new RAV4 GR Sport is finished with a mesh designed with the letter “G” for a three-dimensional effect, and the same pattern is used for the large, beveled fog lamps. The lower part of the bumper is dark gray metallic, emphasizing the sporty appearance.

    (Image) The gauges are futuristic! See 18 photos of the extremely sporty “RAV4 GR Sport” interior and exterior.

    Toyota “RAV4 GR Sport” added as a sporty grade

     The rear has a gloss black border between the license plate and window for a rear view with a strong presence. The rear bumper is also fitted with a mesh with the letter “G” on it.

     In addition, the 19-inch GR Sport aluminum wheels were designed to be lightweight and highly rigid, and the 5-twin spokes have a gloss black finish with finely machined spoke edges.

     The interior is based on a black color scheme, creating a driving-oriented atmosphere. The seats are made of a combination of suede-like material and synthetic leather that provides a good grip and support for the body. Silver gray stitching on the seats, steering wheel, and shift lever adds a touch of elegance.

     In addition, dark gray metallic accents on the steering wheel, air conditioner vent, and around the shift lever on the center console create a refined interior space.

     The GR Sport features electrically adjustable front seats and a panoramic view monitor with under-floor transparency function that allows the driver to see the terrain conditions when driving off-road and to precisely control the vehicle at low speeds. In addition, a newly developed digital reverse camera provides high-resolution real-time images.

     The 12.3-inch meters are fully digital, with sharp graphics and four customizable themes: casual, smart, tough, and sporty.

     The display is divided into three zones, with the center section displaying frequently used information, such as advanced safety system indicators, and the left and right displays showing information such as fuel economy and audio selections, with the ability for the driver to highlight preferred information.

     In addition, the center of the dashboard features the latest Toyota Smart Connect multimedia system operated by a 10.5-inch touchscreen. The high-definition graphics provide a sharp, clear image that is unaffected by light exposure.

     In addition to design and equipment, the new RAV4 GR Sport has improved driving feel through suspension tuning.

     Front and rear springs have been stiffened to improve agility and responsiveness. The suspension is MacPherson struts in the front and double wishbones in the rear, both with sway bars for a stronger structure.

     The engine is a 2.5-liter hybrid, and the standard drive system is an electric four-wheel drive system (AWD-i). The vehicle’s hybrid system and the power of the electric motor added to the rear axle generate torque with high efficiency.

     This system delivers a maximum system output of 222 hp. The system reduces energy loss, saves weight, and optimizes all-wheel drive under various driving conditions.

     The RAV4 GR Sport’s AWD-i is also the first current RAV4 to feature Trail Mode, an automatic differential control system that provides maximum grip and control on slippery road surfaces.

     Even if a wheel floats on an uneven surface, activating Trail Mode with a button on the center console allows the driver to brake the idling tire and distribute engine torque to the tire in contact with the ground to get out of a rough road.

     The price of the new RAV4 GR Sport Hybrid in Spain is 50,600 euros, or about 7.09 million Japanese yen.

     A vehicle equipped with a plug-in hybrid system is scheduled to be introduced in 2024.
