Building a Greener WA
Arriving in mid-2019, the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid has been a massive hit, introducing electrification to the mainstream medium SUV segment at enticing prices.
Under the bonnet is a 2.5-litre engine, working in tandem with an 88kW electric motor, to drive the front wheels via a CVT auto. It offers low-speed short-distance battery-only drive, before the petrol unit takes over, for punchy performance.
