“Recreational Active Vehicle with 4-wheel-drive”, a car-based, unibody alternative to the body-on-frame SUVs of 1994, credited with defining the compact crossover segment it still leads three decades later.[1] It has grown from a light, short-wheelbase three-door available with a soft top to a five-seat family crossover with hybrid and plug-in hybrid drivetrains. This entry covers the original XA10 and the fifth-generation XA50, which introduced the plug-in hybrid RAV4 Prime.
