Yes, but how much you can safely tow depends on the year your Rav4 was made, the engine and whether or not it has the tow prep package. According to the Toyota.com web site http://www.toyota.com/rav4/specs.html, a 2008 Rav4 without the tow prep package can tow up to 2000 lbs. One equipped with the tow prep package can tow up to 3500 lbs. A second consideration is tongue weight, which is about 10% of the gross towing weight. For the 2008 Rav4, this would be 200 and 350 lbs, respectively. We have a 2007 Rav4 with the tow prep package, a Class II hitch and electric brakes. We use it to tow our pop-up camper that has an empty weight of 1200 lbs and a total gross weight of about 2000 lbs. The Rav4 pulls this rig without any difficulty, even in the Colorado mountains.
