2021 Toyota Rav4 Hybrid

What makes the Toyota Rav4 one of the most successful crossover models anywhere in the world, including Canada? The truth is that there are many factors to take into account, from the stunning looks, reasonable starting prices, impressive list of features, and fuel efficiency ratings that make one wonder whether or not they are really driving an SUV.

Beautiful Design Inside and Out

Some people may think of hybrid models as toned-down, muted or lacking in edge in some way. The 2021 Toyota Rav4 is smashing these misconceptions with its signature Rav4 architecture. The exterior includes a sleek, dynamic front end with modern LED lights, sporty grille and bumper design. Powerful lines emanate from the front and flow to the more angular sides and rear end, which create a sense of prestige and presence.

On the inside, the Rav4 Hybrid includes comfortable seating for up to 5 people in cloth, SofTex or mixed upholstery, as well as Toyota’s usual crafted, minimalist designs for driver controls. The driver display includes at least a 7” central touchscreen, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto connectivity as standard and a digital driver information panel behind the steering wheel.

Superlative Choice

Another fantastic advantage of the 2021 Rav4 Hybrid is the sheer level of choice offered by Toyota. The Rav4 Hybrid comes in 6 different trim levels: the base-level Hybrid LE, and then the Hybrid XLE, Hybrid XSE, Hybrid Limited, and then the Prime SE and the Prime XSE Plug-in Hybrid models. Starting prices range from $32,950 for the LE, up to $51,590 for the top-of-the-line Prime XSE.

Each model comes with a huge range of standard and optional features. The basic powertrain is a 2.5L 4-cylinder DOHC Hybrid Synergy Drive engine. The Hybrid LE to Limited models generate up to 219hp and have a towing capacity of up to 794kg. The higher-end Prime hybrid models get a bit more power at 302hp and can tow up to 1134kg. The Prime PHEV models can manage more than 60km on electric power alone.

Fantastic Efficiency
