When you enter the cabin of the Toyota RAV4, the amount of available passenger room and cargo space is extremely appealing. The cabin is spacious, comfortable, and adds a bit of style and convenience for both its driver and passengers.
For example, the headroom in the front row measures 37.7 inches and 39.5 inches in the second row. As for legroom, the front row space is 41 inches and the second row has 37.8 inches. There’s also plenty of shoulder room so nobody feels confined on long car rides. The front-row shoulder room is 57.8 inches and in the second row there’s 56.4 inches. Meanwhile, there’s 54.3 inches of hip room for front-row passengers and 47.7 inches of hip room for passengers in the second row.
Finally, you can fit everyone’s luggage in the trunk easily thanks to 37.6 cubic feet of cargo space. The second row includes the 60/40 split reclining fold-flat rear seatback. This allows the seats to be partially folded so you can make room for longer cargo materials while still retaining some passenger seating. However, if you fold those second-row seats down completely, the cargo volume expands to an impressive 69.8 cubic feet.
The interior of the Toyota Rav4 comes standard with fabric-trimmed seats for the five passengers on board. However, the various trim levels do offer some additional style and comfort options. The available SofTex®-trimmed seating surfaces are a synthetic leather that add more luxury. Unlike leather, though, it’s easier to clean and doesn’t absorb heat from the sun.
The RAV4 also offers different stitching for the SofTex® seats. For example, there are orange accents that come standard on the Adventure trim. Heating and ventilation are available for added comfort no matter what the external temperature.
The advanced infotainment technology found in the Toyota RAV4 turns each routine trip to the grocery store into an entertaining adventure. The vehicle includes a 7-inch touchscreen display accessible through touch or voice commands thanks to enhanced voice recognition.
This system also includes Connected Services, which includes Safety Connect® with a 1-year trial and Wi-Fi Connect® that’s offered with a 3-month trial. The infotainment system also comes with Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ that integrate your smartphone into the vehicle’s touchscreen to provide direct access to your phone’s apps, features, media, and contacts.
Of course, the infotainment system can easily be upgraded with the various trim level options. To start, there’s the Audio Plus system. This audio system features an 8-inch touchscreen display and comes loaded with 11 JBL® speakers, including a subwoofer and amplifier.
Drivers looking to head off on an adventure into the unknown may want to consider the optional Premium Audio with Dynamic Navigation. This package comes fully loaded with media options to add some enjoyment and entertainment to your trips. This system also adds four USB charging ports. However, the biggest appeal to this package is the Dynamic Navigation offered with a 3-year trial.
This system includes Dynamic POI Search, which finds Points Of Interest along your way, including restaurants, gas stations, rest stops, and even attractions. The system also includes a 1-year trial to Destination Assist, which connects you to a live person providing directions and destinations and is available 24 hours a day.
The connectivity discussed in the past section is complemented by the various convenience features found in the cabin of the 2021 RAV4. Especially handy are the steering wheel-mounted controls, which make it easier to select a different station/song, raise the audio levels, or activate the cruise control or driver-assistance features.
Another good example is the available 8-way power-adjustable driver’s seat with memory function and power lumbar support that blends comfort and convenience. Another worthwhile addition are the driver and front passenger heated seats and heated steering wheel.
If you decide to go with the ambient footwell lighting option, your interior will dazzle in the darkness. The unique doorsill protectors and floor mats also add a level of refinement. This vehicle also includes the soft-touch dashboard for adding a bit more comfort and style to the cabin.

The dashboard-mounted screen doubles as the integrated backup camera with projected path. This feature switches over to your vehicle’s rear point of view when you’re in Reverse. Not only will it provide a better perspective, but the projected path component will show where your vehicle will end up based on the angle of your wheel so you can perfect your parking.
The refined, intuitive interior of the Toyota RAV4 is loaded with high-end technology to help drivers near Harvey, New Orleans, and Metairie tackle the open road. The interior will certainly add a lot to your trips in terms of comfort, style, entertainment, and, of course, convenience.
