If you are into crossover SUVs, then read on about the updates to the 2018 Toyota RAV4 Adventure.

The Adventure Package

The Toyota RAV4 Adventure package will be available starting in September, and it will prove to be a great option for people that need a smaller adventure vehicle. Toyota has several models with an Adventure level package, such as the Sequoia and the Tundra. It is designed to make the model more capable in the outdoors ability category. It is like a sports package but for outdoor excitement rather than racing performance.

However, it offers a series of design enhancements and features that make any vehicle better in terms of driving performance, utility, and comfort. 2018 is the first year that the Adventure Package is available for the RAV4.

Off Road Performance Enhancements

While the Adventure Package will help with road performance, it designed to make the RAV4 Adventure better for off-roading. It adds all-wheel-drive capability alongside slip differentials and other features. Combined with the right tires, the RAV4 Adventure can handle nearly any terrain that you would find yourself on.

The weathering features throughout the RAV4’s design are improved with new placements and materials to help handle inclement weather as well. The positioning and design of the headlights are also slightly adjusted for better visibility as well as a cool new look. These enhancements make the RAV4 Adventure great for outdoor exploration, camping, and traveling in unpaved places.

Internal Improvements

The RAV4 Adventure also has improvements on the inside to help make off-road adventures more comfortable. There are optional heated seats and a heated steering wheel to help you stay warm when adventuring in cold places. Other cold-weather features include a de-icing system to help you keep your RAV4 Adventure ready in freezing conditions.

There are power outlets across the vehicle, including in the cargo space, so you can stay powered up for any situation. The seats, dashboard, and driver controls are all made of sturdy materials to protect them from the elements more effectively. The floor mats are also made tougher to prevent wear. Out in the wilderness, you are likely to get something on them. So, Toyota made them stain resistant and easy to clean.

With the enhancements that Toyota included in the RAV4 design, you should have little trouble choosing the RAV4 Adventure over other options. Regardless of what vehicle you choose, be sure to understand its capabilities fully before taking a long far off the path adventure. The RAV4 Adventure is great for an outdoor destination, but you want to make sure it is a safe adventure. Stop by the dealership today to see if the new RAV4 Adventure is the vehicle for you.
