With its standard 203-hp 2.5L inline-4 engine and available 219-hp hybrid system, the vehicle's latest iteration continues to impress. Optional all-wheel drive for every trim and respective EPA highway ratings of up to 35 MPG and 38 MPG for the traditional and hybrid motors add to the powertrain's appeal. more The RAV4's interior is spacious, with close to 100 cubic feet of passenger volume.

Every new Toyota you buy comes with the innovative Toyota Safety Sense system, which helps you to reduce the chance of a collision and prevents you from inadvertently damaging your vehicle. A few exciting features included in Safety Sense are the pre-collision system, road sign assist, and lane departure alert. In today's post, you can discover why Toyotas are some of the safest vehicles out there and learn more about the car safety features they come with. 1. Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection One of the most useful features of Toyota Safety Sense is the pre-collision system. The purpose of this feature is to avoid an accident involving another vehicle or a pedestrian. Your car uses both a radar and a camera to detect any obstacles you're heading towards. You then receive visual and auditory alerts, so you have time to brake before you cause an accident. If you fail to do so, the car is designed to stop automatically. more Another interesting feature of the pre-collision system is its ability to detect bicycles by using its radar sensor or laser sensor and a built-in camera. During daytime conditions, your car will alert you when a crash with a cyclist is likely. It's important to note that the pre-collision system doesn't automatically come with every model and trim, so you should speak to your dealer before purchasing your new Toyota. 2. Road Sign Assist When you first pass your driving test, it's likely that you know all the road signs by heart. But over time, you might forget about the ones you don't encounter regularly. What's more, the rules of the road change, and there might be some new signs you're not aware of. That's why the road sign assist feature is so important. It uses a front-facing camera to identify signs and give you more information about them. You can also use this feature to help prevent speeding, as road signs related to speed will also be detected. 3. Lane Departure Alert If you depart from your lane without meaning to, your Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist can give you a visual and audio alert, which allows you to correct the problem. This feature will also gently assist your steering when you don't react quickly, so you don't inadvertently cause a dangerous situation. A particularly helpful feature of the lane departure assist is road edge detection, which scans the road's edge to detect curbs, soil, or grass. When you don't react to the alert, the steering assist gently corrects your course and makes sure you stay on the road. This can prevent damage to your Toyota and therefore increase its lifespan, as well as helping to keep you and your passengers safe. Modern Toyota vehicles come with a host of safety features that significantly reduce the chance of accidents and subsequent damage. Some of the best features are the pre-collision system, road sign assist, and lane departure alert – but there are many more!
