2025 Toyota RAV4 Specifications | Toyota.com
Visit the official Toyota site for the 2025 Toyota RAV4 specifications. This covers info on performance, dimensions, and details on both standard and available features.
Main difference is the XSE has a sport suspension, and the XLE does not, (the "S" in SE and XSE means sport". )
A Hybrid XSE has a more distinctive look with two tone paint, especially the pearl white w black metallic roof. It has a different digital dash, bigger mfd, moonroof, synthetic black leather with blue stitching and matching interior ambient lights. Of course the stiffer sport suspension and gloss black wheels. Power liftgate and homelink mirror are nice as well.
All RAV4 hybrids have more horsepower than the conventional versions and all have awd.

XSE looks sportier and provides slightly firmer ride. You can’t go wrong either way. Just stay away from the gas model.
Sports suspension means different shocks and struts, beefier sway bars front and rear, and chassis braces and wider wheels.
Agree with everything except the wider wheels. I put black XSE wheels on my RAV4 XLE Premium hybrid; they are the same exact size that came from the factory on my RAV:
Thanks everyone for the good info.

)Just add some Falken Wild Peak Trails in a 235/60/18 or really go big with 245/60/18 for a real great look. You still won't have the sport suspension of the XSE, but it will look great.
The main difference outside of the obvious two tone paint, wheels and interior is the options that can be had on the XSE. At least in 2019, one could not get the Technology package and perhaps other items in a lower trim, that is in the South East US.
