“By 2025, our goal is to have an electrified option of every model we sell and have those vehicles represent 40 percent of our sales. We will achieve that through a winning combination of performance, styling and price. The RAV4 Prime is an excellent example of going beyond a no-compromise approach to electrification and delivering big benefits to drivers.” – Cyril Dimitris, Vice President, Toyota Canada Inc.
Heart-Stopping and Gas-Sipping Performance
Toyota powers the RAV4 Prime with a 2.5-litre four-cylinder hybrid synergy drive engine that delivers 302 horsepower and is one of the quickest Toyota models, zipping to 97 km/h in just 5.6 seconds. It can also tow up to 1,134 kg.
But more importantly, it provides 68 kilometres of pure electric driving range before switching over to the gasoline engine. With a fully charged battery and full tank of gas, the RAV4 Prime can take you further than almost any other vehicle with its range topping nearly 1,000 km.
“When it’s needed, the RAV4 Prime switches automatically and seamlessly to standard hybrid powertrain mode, combining its Atkinson-cycle gas engine and powerful electric motor-generators to deliver driving fun, impressive efficiency, and no range anxiety.” – media.toyota.ca
With satisfying acceleration, responsive braking, composed handling, and a soft and supple ride, you can enjoy smooth travels no matter where the RAV4 Prime may take you.
