Performance
The RAV4’s rugged, sharp design always makes it stand out from a crowd. And that’s not just for show. This crossover is built with LED headlights and high ground clearance. The all-wheel drive (AWD) models even have the Multi-terrain Select function, which allows you to adapt to Mud and Sand, Rock and Dirt, and Snow conditions. And whether you’re headed out to the coast or into the forest, the available panoramic glass roof showcases nature’s beauty.
Those who love to get out and explore every chance they get will be interested in the RAV4 Adventure grade. This model is specifically designed to satisfy your wanderlust with roof rails, sporty orange accents, large overfenders, and a maximum 3,500-lb. towing capacity when properly equipped.
Media and Technology
Even though the exterior is rugged, the inside is refined. The RAV4 comes with the available Entune™ 3.0 Multimedia System. Its 8” touch-screen is the central hub for all your music, maps, and apps. It’s also compatible with Apple CarPlay™ and Bluetooth™, so you can always stay connected you’re way. A wireless smartphone charging pad and multiple USB ports are also available.
Safety
Safety is a big priority for the RAV4. So much so that this crossover features Toyota’s very first camera-based digital rearview mirror. While you’re driving, you can glance in the mirror to get a clear look at what’s behind you. Every model has the Toyota Safety Sense™ 2.0 system, which includes:
- Lane Departure Alert w/ Steering Assist

There’s still plenty more to discover about the new Toyota RAV4. To see it in person, and all of our new cars for sale, visit Ardmore Toyota, located just outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.
This winter, Ardmore Toyota participated in the Auto Dealers Association’s Driving Away the Cold program. We were able to donate a total of 100 coats to two non-profit organizations in our local Philadelphia community: the Ardmore Avenue Community Center and the People’s Emergency Center. Our team was excited to kick off the season of giving by supporting the community in which we work and live, just as we’ve done for over 100 years.
Driving Away the Cold
Driving Away the Cold is an annual event in which car dealerships and their customers, vendors, and employees purchase coats for children in need. There are about 175,000 kids living in poverty in the greater Philadelphia area. As the bitter cold of winter sets in, a new coat of their own can help put a smile on their face and keep them safe and healthy. The coats donated came in a range of colors and styles.
Ardmore Toyota’s 100-coat donation was distributed to two organizations we feel passionate about and whose missions align with our own. The Ardmore Avenue Community Center is dedicated to helping youth in the South Ardmore area by supporting them with educational, recreational, cultural, and social resources. The People’s Emergency Center helps strengthen West Philadelphia by supporting families and youth who are experiencing homelessness. By donating the coats to these non-profits, we hope to reach the kids who need them most.
Our Legacy of Community Involvement Continues
Community involvement has been an integral part of Ardmore Toyota’s foundation since the very beginning. We believe that even the smallest accomplishments can have a big impact. Over the years, we’ve supported dozens of local organizations, but more recently, our staff teamed up to donate Thanksgiving food and to participate in the Lower Merion Police Department’s Special Olympics Torch Run.
If you’d like to learn more about how you can help our underprivileged neighbors in the greater Philadelphia area, we encourage you to reach out to the Ardmore Avenue Community Center in Ardmore or to the People’s Emergency Center. If you have any questions about Ardmore Toyota or our outreach efforts, please stop by the dealership or contact us today.

Toyota Safety Sense™ Features and What They Do
Toyota Safety Sense™ (TSS) arms your vehicle with the technology to protect you from potential dangers on the road. TSS is a suite of driver-assist features that come standard on a variety of new Toyota models — because safety shouldn’t be an option.
Check out the features that are available with TSS, including two brand-new systems — Road Sign Assist and Lane Tracing Assist.
Toyota Safety Sense™ Features
Pre-Collision System
When you approach a vehicle too quickly, the Pre-Collision System warns you of a potential frontal collision. It can sense when you apply the brakes — or if you don’t brake in time — and can apply more force using Brake Assist so your vehicle comes to a stop before an accident occurs.
Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
In addition to the Pre-Collision System, Pre-Collision with Pedestrian Detection more accurately detects when foot traffic crosses in front of your vehicle — from dog walkers to bike riders and everything in between — and alerts you to take action.
Lane Departure Alert
While you cruise the highway at 32 mph or faster, Lane Departure Alert can warn you when your vehicle begins to drift into another lane. When equipped with Steering Assist, your vehicle will automatically provide corrective steering to shift you back into the lane.
Automatic High Beams
When driving at night, Automatic High Beams allow your vehicle to adjust appropriately by detecting the headlights and taillights of vehicles in front of you. If you forget to switch off high beams when an oncoming car approaches, Automatic High Beams does it for you.
Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
Setting your vehicle to cruise control allows you to maintain a constant speed as you drive — with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, your Toyota also adjusts for the changes in speed of the driver ahead of you, without deactivating cruise control. And, if your vehicle senses that you need to slow down, it will alert you with audio and visual signs and even gently apply the brakes.
Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control is also available.
New TSS Features
Road Sign Assist
The forward-facing intelligent camera on your Toyota can detect stop signs, speed limit signs, and more — and then display the signs on your Multi-Information Display (MID).
Lane Tracing Assist
When coupled with Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Tracing Assist produces a display of the vehicle’s position on the road by detecting the lane markers. The view of your vehicle will appear on the MID.

On June 4, 2018, the 2018 Hit ‘em for the House Golf Outing, presented by Ron Krancer and family, took place at Huntingdon Valley Country Club. Ardmore Toyota was a proud sponsor of the event — now in its 18th year — which raised over $150,000 for the Philadelphia Ronald McDonald House (PRMH).
The daylong event featured a competitive tournament, lunch, an open bar, hors d’oeuvres, dinner, and silent and live auctions. The Youngblood Group won the tourney. Drawing in over 250 attendees, the 2018 Hit ‘em for the House Golf Outing also included a thrilling Helicopter Ball Drop sponsored by Martin’s Famous Potato Rolls and Bread. This year’s winner was Bobby Smith.
Check out highlights from the Ball Drop below.
This year’s special guest for the highly anticipated event was Tom Coyne, author of the novels, A Gentleman’s Game, Paper Tiger: An Obsessed Golfer’s Quest to Play with the Pros, and A Course Called Ireland: A Long Walk in Search of a Country, a Pint, and the Next Tee. Coyne is also an assistant professor of English at St. Joseph’s University in Philadelphia.
Alongside Club House Sponsor, P. Agnes, and Golfer Gift Sponsors, Permalith Plastics, Crowley Chemical, and Rusmar Foam Technologies, Ardmore Toyota helped support the PRMH at the event as part of our dedication to community involvement. We donated a Hole in One on four holes at Huntingdon Valley’s prestigious golf course.
About PRMH
Cofounded by Audrey Evans and Jimmy Murray in 1974, PRMH is the world’s first Ronald McDonald House. With two Ronald McDonald Houses, Ronald McDonald Family Rooms at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia and St. Christopher’s Hospital for Children, and a Ronald McDonald Camp, the organization helps nurture a community centered on comfort and hope to support families of seriously ill children.

If efficiency is your priority, the available 2.5L Dynamic Force 4-cylinder Toyota Hybrid System II with a 650-volt electric motor serves up 215 net horsepower — a 15-horsepower increase over the previous model year — while scoring an impressive combined fuel economy of up to 44 mpg.

For a totally modern driving experience, the 2019 Toyota Avalon offers a selection of available technologies, from innovative safety features to premium sound systems.
