EXACTLY a month after announcing its arrival into the Philippine market, the 2022 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid has finally reached dealers. A hybrid powertrain comes as standard for the first time in the RAV4, and it's available in two variants: XLE and LTD.

Shown in these photos is the LTD variant, which retails for P2.5 million. Regardless of which variant is chosen, the RAV4 sold in the Philippines is the facelifted model. This means that all variants come with the same changes that we first saw in the European RAV4, including the revised set of LED headlights with new LED daytime running lights. New alloy wheel designs round up the changes for this model year, in which the LTD comes in 18 inches. As for exterior features, the LTD benefits from power-folding mirrors, rain-sensing wipers, chrome door handles, and a panoramic sunroof.
