Although no powertrain changes are integrated, the Toyota RAV4 Adventure gets to benefit from aesthetic upgrades that help the new variant look like a proper off-road crossover. The new off-road variant still retained the hybrid electric technology of the model that gives it its sturdy performance capabilities.

Upfront, the Toyota RAV4 Adventure comes with an all-black grille that houses the re-positioned brand logo. It also pioneered the new LED projector headlights and daytime running lights (DRLs) which will be later introduced to the rest of the RAV4 range.

New 19-inch alloy wheels with a matte gray are installed, while the matching silver under-run or skid plate is retained on the rear end. Both of the said exterior design details enhance the intended off-road appearance of the new RAV4 variant.

As a way to pay homage to the classic Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser, the RAV4 Adventure will be offered with a unique bi-tone paintwork option. It is composed of an Urban Khahi body paint, paired to Dynamic Gray roof, front pillars, and rear spoiler.
