Toyota RAV4 XA5 2.5 Hybrid Team Deutschland AWD-i - Terrain

Can the Toyota RAV4 XA5 2.5 Hybrid Team Deutschland AWD-i also be used off-road? Here often a distinction is made between "soft-roaders" and real off-roaders. For real off-road capability it needs more than just some more ground clearance. The SUV boom of the last 10 years has produced many models that look off-road but have limited capability to do so.

The Toyota RAV4 has all-wheel drive, which means that the basic requirement is already met. Ground clearance, another important criterion, is 190 mm for this vehicle. This allows it to move forward even in hilly terrain and, for example, on muddy paths in the forest without sitting up, assuming all-wheel drive.



Rating: The Toyota RAV4 has all-wheel drive as well as acceptable ground clearance. Occasional off-road excursions are no problem. However, it is not a real off-road vehicle.
