Toyota's RAV4 GR Sport Just Got a Sharp New Look, But It's Only for Japanese Buyers
Toyota's TRD division has given the RAV4 GR Sport a series of visual and aerodynamic upgrades, but these parts are only available for the Japanese market. The new features include a front lip, side skirts, and rear spoiler, as well as 20-inch aluminum wheels and door handle protectors. TRD has also developed door stabilizers and a performance damper to improve handling and steering feel. Meanwhile, Modellista has released its own range of accessories for the latest generation RAV4, including a Lifestyle Package and an Outdoor Package, which offer a more extroverted look compared to TRD's subtle changes.
But here's the catch: These TRD parts are only available in Japan, leaving global buyers to admire the new RAV4 GR Sport from afar. This exclusivity is a disappointment for international buyers, but it keeps things interesting on Toyota's home turf. So, while the RAV4 GR Sport may not be available worldwide, it's a thrilling addition to Toyota's lineup, showing that even their bread-and-butter SUV can have a bit of attitude.
