Toyota RAV4 weight

Toyota RAV4 curb weight affects the fuel efficiency, handling, and overall driving experience. A heavier RAV4 may have a more stable ride and handle better in adverse weather conditions, but it may also require more fuel and have slower acceleration.

On the other hand, a lighter Toyota RAV4 may boast of better MPG and quicker acceleration, though it may also have reduced stability and less control on the road.

The lightest Toyota RAV4 was produced in 1999 with a weight of 2547 lbs. And the heaviest model came off the production line in 2012 with 3699 lbs pounds in curb weight.
