Against the 2020 RAV4: the two manuals do not print the same part types, so there is nothing to compare line by line.

The 2021 RAV4 belongs to the 5th gen (XA50), which began with the 2019 model year (MY2022 refresh: new LED projector headlights); generation dates. Parts often carry over within a generation, but the manual for your exact model year is the one to trust.

What the manual does not print
The 2021 Toyota RAV4 owner's manuals do not list wipers and filters sizes; for wipers, measure each blade end to end and buy the nearest whole-inch size.
Buying the parts for a 2021 RAV4
- Small bulbs: this manual names 11 replaceable bulb positions. Wedge bulbs such as W5W and 194 differ from twist-socket bulbs such as 7443 or 3157, so match the full number, including suffixes like NA (amber).
- Battery: the manual prints LN3, a DIN/EN case size that BCI matches to group 48, 98R and 148. Match the cold cranking amps on the old label or higher, and keep the terminals on the same sides.
- Oil: API SN/RC SAE 0W-16. Use the grade printed for your engine if the manual lists more than one.
