What size is the rear wiper in a Toyota RAV4?
The rear wiper blade on most Toyota RAV4 models is 12 inches long (about 30 cm).
This size covers the vast majority of RAV4 generations, including many third- and fourth-generation models, but exact dimensions can vary by year, market, and trim. To ensure you buy the correct blade, check your owner’s manual or measure the current blade before purchasing a replacement.
Sizing by generation and how to verify
A quick guide to model-year differences
Across recent RAV4 generations, a 12-inch rear wiper blade is the standard, but some markets or older variants may use a different size. Always verify for your specific vehicle.
To confirm the exact size for your car, use these verification steps:
- Check the owner's manual for the recommended rear wiper blade size or part number.
- Remove the current blade and measure its length from tip to tip to confirm the total size.
- Examine the packaging when purchasing a replacement; it usually lists the blade length and compatible models.
- If shopping at a parts store or online, provide your RAV4's model year and market to ensure the correct size is shown as compatible.
Following these steps will help you ensure you buy the right blade and maintain proper rear visibility.
Summary
In most Toyota RAV4s, the rear wiper blade is 12 inches long. Always confirm with the manual, the blade itself, or a trusted parts professional, especially for older models, hybrid variants, or non-U.S. market versions where sizes can differ.
