Toyota RAV4

Toyota RAV4 with increased by 100 mm wheelbase offers even more room for the rear passengersand luggage, which means - even more comfort and practicality both in everyday trips and in travel. In comparison with the standard RAV4, the length of the new model has grown by as much as 210 mm.



And without that spacious lounge Now it will meet the requirements of the mostof demanding passengers: the distance between the front and rear seats increased by 65 mm and is 865 mm, which corresponds to the level of business class sedans. No less attention was paid to luggage: lengthening the luggage compartment by 140 mm ensures that everything you need for a long trip will be at your fingertips.



In this case, the rear overhang grew by only 110 mm. Externally, the Toyota RAV4 with a long wheelbase differs from the standard model not only by the increased size. The exterior of the car is complemented by expressive details, emphasizing the off-road spirit and sporting nature of the novelty, which is equipped with a powerful petrol engine of 2.4 liters.



Expanders wheel arches, an impressive crossbar grille, roof rails - these features of classic SUVs say that the new RAV4 is ready not to conqueronly urban roads and highways. And the darkened head optics and stylish fog lights complete the image of a modern, high-tech and versatile car, ideal for a dynamic, busy life.

Dynamics

The RAV4 is equipped with two powerful gasoline engines VVT-i in volume of 2,0 l and 2,4 l, power from 152 liters. from. up to 170 liters. from. according to DIN standard.




In engines VVT-i (with electronic system of change of phases of gas distribution) it is used modern computer technology, optimizing the amount of air intakefor various road conditions. The 2.0 L VVT-i engine generates torque over a wide range of engine speeds (194 Nm / 4000 rpm).



For a 2.4-liter engine, this figure is 224 Nm / 4000 rpm. You can select RAV4 c 5-speed manual transmission (complete with a gasoline engine volume2.0 liters) or automatic transmission for engines with a volume of 2.0 and 2.4 liters. The 5-speed manual transmission provides smooth shifting, 0 to 100 km / h acceleration in 10.6 seconds, the ability to quickly get off the ground, and a top speed of 185 km / h.




4-speed automatic transmission provides even easier managementcar, acceleration from 0 to 100 km / h in 12 seconds and a top speed of 175 km / h. This gearbox was created using the latest technology from Toyota - to ensure a smooth and quick gear change and low fuel consumption.



Regardless of your choice, Toyota's state-of-the-art VVT-i technology will not only provide the engine characteristics you need, but also help achieve a significant reduction in fuel consumption. RAV4 in a complete set with 5-step MCP andthe engine capacity of 2.0 liters consumes in a mixed cycle of only 8.5 liters / 100 kilometers and 9.0 liters / 100 kilometers with a 4-speed automatic transmission. In the complete set with the engine capacity of 2.4 liters and a 4-speed automatic transmission the fuel consumption is 9.6 l / 100 km.

Security

Anti-lock braking system (ABS) with electronic distribution systembraking force EBD and emergency braking Brake Assist (BA) ABS prevents wheel locking on a slippery road, and EBD optimizes the distribution of braking force between the front and rear (and between the left and right) wheels, giving you the opportunity to successfully pass obstacles during braking the car . The Brake Assist system determines the need for emergency braking and, in the event that the brake pedal force is insufficient, increases the braking intensity.




Integrated Active Management System integrates VSC with electric power steeringcontrol (EPS) and 4WD, which allows the use of all three systems to provide even greater security. In case of excessive or inadequate steering (for example, when turning), VSC helps during braking, and EPS makes the rudder rotation in the right direction easier, and in the wrong direction it is more difficult, which will help you to return the car to a stable position on the road.



The system is also used during acceleration on slippery roads, with the combined operation of the TRC and VSC systemsfor controlling engine power and applying braking force when necessary. At the same time, the torque is optimally distributed between the front and rear axles to ensure a stable car position.



Advanced acceleration and braking system in a straight line. If the traction force of the left and right wheels with the road surface is different, when braking the car can be brought to the side.



Integrated RAV4 Active Management Systeminstantly turns on the ABS system and increases the force on the steering wheel with EPS to compensate for unbalance and keep the car on a straight trajectory until it stops. Skidding to the right or left can also occur during acceleration, so the system simultaneously uses EPS to increase the steering wheel and TRC system, eliminating the imbalance and preserving the trajectory of the car.


Excellent road stability NewThe RAV4 suspension not only provides comfort while driving, it has also been developed as a safety feature. Its design has been completely changed, from shock absorbers and ending with springs, so the car has excellent handling and confidently keeps the road.




The data of the sensors installed in the RAV4 is transmitted to the integrated active management system, coordinating the work of the distribution systemthe torque between the axles, the electric power steering (EPS) and the VSC (VSC). This is an effective aid, completely consistent with the style of management, as well as the behavior of the car.



Torque distribution system between the axes changes the torque,transmitted to the front and rear wheels, which makes it possible to optimize the tractive effort and exchange rate stability. So, when starting off, a greater torque is transmitted to the rear wheels.



To improve fuel economy duringTraffic on the highway torque to the rear wheels can not be transmitted at all. The system makes the transmission of torque to the rear wheels maximum, so that the car does not get stuck when driving off-road.




The VSC system works in conjunction withelectric power steering (EPS), which provides a simultaneous increase in force on the steering wheel with the action of a standard system of exchange rate stability. By determining understeer or oversteer, the system helps the driver, making it easier to turn the rudder in the right direction and making it difficult in the wrong direction.



It complements the anti-lock braking system (ABS) with an electronic brake force distribution (EBD), an emergency braking amplifier and an anti-slip system.




Effective work of these high-tech systems underlines the thorough elaboration of the platform andthe RAV4 suspension. The front suspension is made on the MacPherson struts, and the rear suspension is mounted on double wishbones and diagonally located shock absorbers, which increases the volume of the luggage compartment.





This suspension design allowed reduce vibration, to increase the grip of tires to the roadway andmake confident the passage of corners. Combination with an integrated active control system ensures accurate car response and an unrivaled smooth ride.




Absorption of impact energy. A new chassis was designed to absorb energycollision impact and allowing only a slight deformation of the cabin. As for all Toyota cars, as a result of long tests on the crash-stand, a solid and rigid body RAV4 designed for resistance to collisions, regardless of the direction of the impact, be it frontal, side collision or rear impact.



Ensuring the safety of pedestrians, Toyota has developed a special design for the RAV4. In a collision, it deforms, which helps prevent serious injuries in pedestrians in the event of an accident.





Airbags. To protect the driver and passengers in the event of an accidentRAV4 is equipped with seven airbags (including two-way cushions on the driver's and front passenger's side, side cushions, curtain airbags and a pillow for driver's knee protection - the first in its segment).



For additional convenience, the passenger is located a switch that allows you to disengage the front airbag when installing a child seat. Protection from injury in case of abrupt deviationhead back at rear impact (WIL) The new RAV4 is equipped with seats made in accordance with the concept of protection from injury with a sharp head deviation in the backward shock (WIL) of the second generation.



The characteristics of these seats have been improved through tests conducted using special dummies THUMS (full model of a person for safety tests), designed by Toyota.




In these mannequins, all the tissues of the human body are reproduced in the most detailed manner, including bones, skin, joints and ligaments. Seat fixings ISOFIX. RAV4 has special fasteners, including stops, which prevent the seat from tilting forward. They are designed for safe and convenient attachment of ISOFIX child seats.




RAV4 received four stars (32 points) in the Euro NCAP for the protection of adult passengers and for the protection of children, three stars - for the protection of pedestrians. Four Euro NCAP stars are evidence of the high level of design, technology and quality of the Toyota RAV4.
