Toyota RAV4 News

A supply issue is pinching the rollout of the RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid, a much-anticipated version of Toyota's best-selling U.S. model.

The RAV4 Prime offers more electric range than the Ford Escape Plug-In Hybrid and Mitsubishi Outlander Plug-In Hybrid.

The 2021 RAV4 Prime offers 42 miles of all-electric driving, followed by 38-mpg hybrid operation, plus punchy performance.

Toyota has started to notify owners about an issue that can prevent the use of the RAV4 Hybrid's rated fuel-tank capacity—and driving range.

A manufacturing issue has led Toyota to recall about 9,500 RAV4 and RAV4 Hybrid models.

An issue with the fuel tank is preventing some drivers of the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid from using their full rated range.

A big battery gives the Toyota RAV4 Prime up to 39 miles of estimated electric range, with acceleration second only to sports cars in Toyota's lineup.

Range and mpg haven't yet been mentioned for a plug-in version of the Toyota RAV4 that will arrive in 2020 for the 2021 model year.

Toyota might soon be adding a plug-in version of the RAV4 crossover to its lineup; it would join the Prius Prime as its second current PHEV.

After six model years, the 2017 Toyota Prius V will soon leave the stage, and there will be no 2018 version.

Toyota's popular RAV4 crossover utility vehicle will gain a new entry-level hybrid trim for the 2018 model year, offering a remarkably good price against a gasoline-only RAV4 crossover. The 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid LE trim lets buyers choose the greater fuel efficiency of a hybrid powertrain for...

With gas prices remaining cheap and all vehicles getting better fuel economy these days, utility vehicles are all the rage among U.S. buyers. Whether smaller crossovers or bigger SUVs, utilities have not only ended the market for traditional wagons but are eating significantly into sales of...

"I want a fuel-efficient car, but I live in a snowy area, and won't buy one without all-wheel drive; what's the best?" It's a question we hear often. Whether or not you agree that AWD is a must-have in wintry climes, the selection of cars with high fuel economy and AWD is limited. DON'T MISS: 2014...

Toyota is on track to sell 1.4 million hybrids this year, new analysis says.

The 2016 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is the sole mass-market crossover SUV that offers a hybrid powertrain and all-wheel drive. That was a market pioneered by the Ford Escape Hybrid, in 2004, and one that Ford walked away from for 2013. It turns out that there seems to be a market for compact crossovers...
