Yes — we sell 2015-2018 RAV4 2.0L AWD models for Brazil at $13,000-$18,000 FOB, and we verify the 4WD system (differential and transfer case) via video before shipping. Delivery is available to the Port of Santos or Paranagua. For current photos and a live video walkaround, message us on WhatsApp +86 155 5692 0288. We are a direct exporter, not agency, not aggregator, so you deal with the people who actually own and load the cars.

Which RAV4 AWD years and trims do you actually have for Brazil?

Our Brazil-bound RAV4 inventory is concentrated in the 2015-2018 generation, mostly 2.0L AWD. This is not an accident. Brazilian import rules, buyer preferences, and parts availability all favor this window, and the 2.0L engine keeps the vehicle in a more favorable tax and shipping bracket than the 2.5L or hybrid versions.

  • 2015-2016 RAV4 2.0L AWD — typically the lower end of the range, often with higher mileage or fewer factory options.
  • 2017-2018 RAV4 2.0L AWD — usually the upper end, with lower mileage, better interior trim, and more complete service history.
  • Trim levels — XLE and Limited are the most common AWD trims we export. Base LE AWD exists but is less frequent in our sourcing channels.
  • Mileage bands — most units fall between 60,000 km and 120,000 km. Cars under 80,000 km command the top of the price range.

If you need a specific color, sunroof, or leather interior, tell us on WhatsApp and we will flag matching units as they arrive. We do not list every car we have because inventory moves weekly.

What determines the final price of a RAV4 AWD to Brazil?

The $13,000-$18,000 FOB range is not arbitrary. Several concrete factors move a car up or down within that band, and understanding them helps you judge whether a quote is fair.

  • Year and mileage — a 2018 with 70,000 km sits near $18,000; a 2015 with 130,000 km sits near $13,000.
  • 4WD condition — a working transfer case and rear differential are non-negotiable for Brazil. Cars with known 4WD issues are either repaired or excluded from our Brazil listings.
  • Service history — full dealer or documented independent service adds value. Missing records reduce the price and increase your risk.
  • Body and interior condition — accident history, paintwork, and interior wear all affect the final number.
  • Options — sunroof, leather, navigation, and alloy wheel condition can shift the price by several hundred dollars.
  • Market timing — auction and wholesale prices in Japan and other source markets fluctuate. A car that was $15,500 last month may be $16,200 this month for the same spec.

FOB means the price covers the car and delivery to the departure port. It does not include ocean freight, insurance, or Brazilian import duties. Those are separate and depend on your import method and destination port.

How much is shipping to Santos or Paranagua, and what about Brazilian taxes?

Shipping and taxes are the two costs that surprise first-time importers most. We quote them separately so you can see exactly what you are paying for.

  • Ocean freight — a 20ft or 40ft container from major Asian ports to Santos or Paranagua typically runs $1,500-$3,500 depending on route, season, and whether you share a container or book a full one.
  • Marine insurance — usually 0.3%-0.5% of CIF value. Strongly recommended for a vehicle of this value.
  • Brazilian import duties — these are calculated on CIF value and vary by vehicle age, engine size, and your import regime. They can be substantial, so confirm the current rates with a licensed Brazilian customs broker before you commit.
  • Port and clearance fees — terminal handling, storage, and broker fees at Santos or Paranagua are separate from freight and duties.

We can recommend freight forwarders and Brazilian brokers we have worked with, but we do not mark up their fees. You pay them directly. This is part of being a direct exporter: we sell the car, you control the logistics chain.

How do you verify the 4WD system before shipping?

This is the question that matters most for a Brazil buyer, because a RAV4 AWD with a failed transfer case or rear differential is an expensive problem in a market where parts and specialist labor are not cheap.

  • Cold start and dashboard check — we record the instrument cluster to confirm no AWD or 4WD warning lights.
  • Transfer case inspection — underbody video showing the transfer case, prop shaft, and rear differential for leaks, damage, or unusual wear.
  • Functional test — where conditions allow, we demonstrate engagement of the rear wheels on a lift or in a controlled low-traction situation.
  • Scan tool report — we read and record any stored or pending codes related to the AWD system.
  • Test drive notes — any noises, vibrations, or handling anomalies are documented and shared with you before you pay the balance.

You receive the video and scan report before final payment. If the 4WD system does not check out, we either fix it or you walk away. We do not ship cars with known AWD faults to Brazil.

What documents do you provide, and how do you handle payment?

Export paperwork is where many deals fall apart, so we keep it simple and transparent.

  • Commercial invoice — reflects the agreed FOB price and vehicle details.
  • Bill of Lading — issued by the shipping line, consigned as agreed.
  • Export certificate — proves the vehicle was legally exported from the source country.
  • Deregistration document — confirms the car has been removed from the source country's registry.
  • Inspection report — our pre-shipment condition and 4WD verification report.

Payment terms are typically a deposit to reserve the car and the balance before loading. We accept bank transfer (T/T). We do not ask for payment to personal accounts, and we do not use escrow services that we cannot verify. If a payment request looks unusual, stop and confirm with us on WhatsApp +86 155 5692 0288 before sending anything.
