AKEEYO Launches XPRO, a Custom-Fit 4K Dash Cam Built for the Toyota RAV4

Officially authorized Sony STARVIS 2 imaging, a factory-style install in about four minutes, and no cables running down the windshield. Now available in North America.

SHENZHEN, China, Sept. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- AKEEYO Global today announced the XPRO, a vehicle-specific 4K dash cam engineered exclusively for the Toyota RAV4. XPRO replaces the original plastic housing behind the rearview mirror and draws power from a connection point already located near the mirror, so there is no suction mount, no cable taped down the windshield, and no visible hardware on the dashboard.

The RAV4 is one of the highest-volume vehicles on North American roads, and its owners have long faced the same compromise. Universal dash cams record well but hang off the glass. Vehicle-specific models look clean but often fall short on imaging, connectivity, or long-term durability. XPRO was built to close that gap.

Imaging that AKEEYO can document, not just claim

XPRO records true 4K at 25fps through a Sony STARVIS 2 IMX678 sensor paired with an F1.08 large aperture and HDR. AKEEYO sources the sensor through authorized supply channels and holds written confirmation from Sony verifying its use, a level of documentation that is uncommon in a category where sensor names are frequently listed without evidence.

The practical result shows up after dark. Tunnels, unlit residential streets, oncoming headlights, and the high-contrast moment when a car exits a parking structure into daylight are exactly the conditions that flatten most footage into an unusable blur. The combination of a larger aperture, 4K resolution, and HDR is intended to keep plate characters, lane markings, and vehicle detail legible when a clip actually needs to be reviewed.

A four-minute install with nothing left behind

Installation requires no drilling, cutting, wire splicing, or fuse-box work for standard driving recording. Owners remove the original mirror cover with the included trim tool, plug in the supplied adapter, tuck the cable inside the XPRO housing, and press the unit into the factory mounting position. Start the vehicle and XPRO begins recording automatically.

The install is fully reversible. XPRO can be removed and the original mirror housing reinstalled at any time, which matters for leased vehicles and for resale.

XPRO ships in two housing designs to match RAV4 production variations. The version without vent openings fits select 2019 to 2024 RAV4 models and the 2022 RAV4 Prime. The version with vent openings fits select 2022 to 2025 models. Because mirror housings vary by model year, trim, and market, AKEEYO asks buyers to match the reference images rather than rely on model year alone, and offers a free fit-check by email for anyone unsure.

Built for a car that sits in the sun

A parked cabin in Phoenix or Dallas can reach temperatures that destroy conventional lithium batteries. XPRO uses an automotive-grade supercapacitor instead, backed by a six-layer ENIG circuit board with gold-finished contacts that resist oxidation and corrosion. The camera is rated for operation from minus 4°F to 158°F.

Evidence retrieval without pulling the card

Loop recording keeps coverage continuous, and a three-level G-sensor locks the current clip when an impact is detected so it survives overwriting. Voice commands let drivers photograph or lock a clip without reaching for the camera, and spoken alerts confirm recording, Wi-Fi, audio, and storage status.

Dual-band Wi-Fi on 2.4GHz and 5GHz connects XPRO to the AKEEYO app for live preview, playback, and downloads of up to 20MB/s under suitable conditions. Drivers can save the clip they need directly to a phone at the roadside without removing the microSD card.

Optional GPS and parking protection

The optional GPS Module records route, speed, direction, location, and time alongside footage, with synchronized video and map playback in the AKEEYO app or the desktop player. For coverage after the engine is off, an optional ACC Hardwire Kit or OBD Power Cable enables time-lapse parking monitoring with impact protection and low-voltage cutoff to help protect the vehicle battery.
