Report: 2014 Toyota RAV4 leaks out *UPDATE

Filed under: , ,

2014 Toyota RAV4

Toyota is ready to unveil the 2014 RAV4 at this year's LA Auto Show later this week, but it appears a few photos of the new crossover have already hit the web. The crew at CarStyleBlog.com has gotten its hands on a small batch of interior and exterior shots that seem to detail the new Honda CR-V fighter. The site also has a few images of a lightly camouflaged version in what looks to be a production facility, complete with interior photos as well. Judging by the teaser video we've already seen, this looks to be the real deal. Buyers can expect to find substantially updated aesthetics inside and out.

We've reached out to Toyota to confirm whether or not these photos are genuine. We'll update this post as soon as we hear back.

Word has it Toyota will abandon the V6 engine option in favor of a more efficient four-cylinder for 2014. Likewise, engineers have scrapped the old four-speed automatic transmission for a six-speed unit. Otherwise, details are scarce. Fortunately, we won't have to wait long to find our more. Expect to see the 2014 Toyota RAV4 be unveiled on November 28.

*UPDATE: Toyota spokesperson Curt McAllister responded to our inquiries by saying, "I can't confirm or deny the validity of the photos."
