Why is the delivery time for the RAV4 so long?
There are three main reasons why delivery times for the RAV4 are getting longer:
- Global Semiconductor Shortage Automobiles use many semiconductors. In recent years, the global semiconductor shortage has become more serious, significantly affecting automobile production.
- The RAV4 is popular not only in Japan, but also in North America, Europe, and other parts of the world. As a result, we are unable to keep up with the increased global demand, resulting in longer delivery times.
- Impact of COVID-19 The spread of COVID-19 has caused delays in parts procurement and production, which is also a factor in longer delivery times.
How can I expedite the delivery of my RAV4?
“I want to get into the RAV4 as soon as possible!”
I’m sure many of you feel the same way. Here are some ways to speed up the delivery of your RAV4.
- Choosing a grade with a short delivery time Delivery times vary depending on the grade. By choosing a grade with a short delivery time, such as the X grade, you may be able to shorten the time until delivery.
- Narrowing down your options Adding many options tends to increase delivery times. By carefully selecting only the options you need, you may be able to speed up delivery.
- If there are any cancelled or in-stock vehicles , you may be able to get your car delivered immediately. Contact the dealer to check if they have any cancelled or in-stock vehicles.
- Contact multiple retailers . Delivery times and stock availability vary depending on the retailer. Contact multiple retailers and choose the one with the shortest delivery time.
- Installing dealer options Some dealer options can be installed later. Consider installing dealer options later to speed up delivery.

About RAV4
Toyota has completely redesigned the new RAV4 XA50 model, which was released in Japan on April 10, 2019. All models come standard with the world’s first new 4WD system, Dynamic Torque Vectoring AWD, and the latest preventative safety package, Toyota Safety Sense.
Unlike the fifth-generation RAV4, the new car adopts an outdoor-oriented design similar to the first and second generations, featuring a powerful and bold “octagonal” motif, following the tradition of Toyota SUVs such as the Land Cruiser . Available in both the standard and outdoor-oriented “Adventure” grades , the new car features distinct differences in the front grille and front bumper design. The new car incorporates many of the technologies from the newly developed TNGA (Toyota New Global Architecture) platform, also used in the new Prius from 2015 , known as the GA-K platform, which is also used in the new Camry. This allows for a larger interior space than the previous model. The newly developed platform achieves high aerodynamic performance, resulting in a lower center of gravity and increased body rigidity, resulting in a 57% improvement in body rigidity compared to the previous model, and a front-to-rear weight ratio of 51:49 , a significant improvement. Based on the Camry, the body size is slightly larger than the previous model, resulting in a more spacious interior and a more luxurious interior.
