Off-Road Model
For model year 2021, the TRD Off-Road will continue to echo the persona of Toyota’s legendary off-road racers — thanks to the addition of a TRD-stamped stainless steel front skid plate for 2021. Customers will benefit from increased resistance against debris found on or off the road with this RAV4 first-ever front skid-plate.
