2021 Toyota RAV4 removed from Toyota Malaysia’s site, facelift coming soon? 01

  • The Toyota RAV4 has been removed from Toyota Malaysia's site
  • Entry 2.0-litre variant was discontinued in 2020
  • Is the facelift model coming?

Slightly less than 2 years after making its debut in Malaysia, the 2021 Toyota RAV4 has been quietly removed from Toyota Malaysia’s official site.

The RAV4 is no more

Seeing that the Toyota RAV4 is imported (CBU) from Japan, we reckon that this is merely a temporary move before facelift model arrives.

Facelifted RAV4 pictured

At launch, the TNGA-K-based Toyota RAV4 was offered with two powertrain options: a naturally-aspirated 2.0-litre and a naturally-aspirated 2.5-litre engine. The entry-level 2.0-litre variant was dropped just two months after the launch, leaving the 2.5-litre model as the sole variant.
