Since Super Bowl ads gave the public a good look at the all-new exterior of the 2013 Toyota RAV4 , we thought we'd dig deeper and give you an idea of what to expect inside this quasi-SUV. What we learned was that life inside of the 2013 RAV4 will be very similar to what it was like in the 2012 model, at least with respect to technology, because none of the infotainment technology has been upgraded. Toyota did upgrade in-dash technology for 2012 model-year vehicles, so the existing features shouldn't be all that outdated in 2013 models such as the RAV4.

Toyota’s Take On Personal Transport Hits The Streets

JAPANESE car maker Toyota has launched the first public trials of its ultra-compact i-Road electric three-wheeled ‘personal mobility vehicle’ to find out how it shapes up in the cut-and-thrust of real-world urban driving. Consumer testing in Tokyo is set to run through to early June, with 10 of the single-seater vehicles taking to the city streets. The 20 people involved in the programme range from industry experts through to members of the general public, so that Toyota can gain a wide range of feedback on what the i-Road is like to drive, how easy it is to use around town, how it affects people’s decisions about what journeys to make.
