The Toyota RAV4 EV is an all-electric version of the popular RAV4 SUV produced by Toyota until 2014. Two generations of the EV model were sold in California, and to fleets elsewhere in the US, with a gap of almost ten years between them.
The first generation was leased from 1997 to 2003, and at the lessees' request, many units were sold after the vehicle was discontinued. A total of 1,484 were leased and/or sold in California to meet the state's mandate for zero-emissions vehicle. A small number were sold or leased in fleet sales in other states. As of mid-2012, there were almost 500 vehicles still in use in California. Production of the second generation EV was limited to 2,600 units during a three-year run, with sales limited to California beginning in 2012. Production ended in September 2014. A total of 2,489 units of the second generation model were sold in California through April 2015.Toyota worked together with Tesla Motors and Panasonic to develop the second generation RAV4 EV, and the electric SUV was released in the United States in September 2012. The US Environmental Protection Agency rated the second generation RAV4 EV with a range of 103 mi (166 km) and a combined fuel economy rating of 76 miles per gallon gasoline equivalent (3.1 L/100 km).
I am a complete novice and newbie to the EV world and probably the least ‘tech savvy’ member of this forum! So apologies in advice for the stupid questions.
Took delivery today of my Xpower. I’ve failed to get my backside into gear and have a home charger installed in time so my first drive was...
So I am looking for an MG dealer in Devon or Somerset that anyone has used and been happy with.
I took delivery of a second hand Trophy long range from Hendy MG Exeter. Thanks to reading this forum I made a few demands pre-delivery. I got the mats and charger but not the software update (it is...
Hi I am a new MG4 Excite (as we call it in Aus) owner. I am new to driving an EV and wondered what are the best settings to use for optimal performance. Is it best to drive in Eco mode with one pedal driving? Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks

I've had my MG5 for 2 weeks now and have been charging it from the 'granny' charger. I could install a proper Type 2 charger but it's going to cost around £1000. I can charge the car to 50% overnight with the granny (it delivers 2.2 kW). 50% of charge per day (~100 miles) is more than enough for...
I have owned my Trophy MG3 Hybrid+ since August and I'm approaching 4,000 miles on the clock. Residing in Aberdeenshire Scotland, I have observed as we enter the colder months (-4 degrees Celsius at the time of this posting) the vehicles (EV) seems to be less prominent. I am curious whether this...

Are you aware that the MG ZS-EV trophy edition has voice commands?
Try saying "Hello MG". You will hear a voice welcoming you and asking "How can I help".
Try saying "Open sunroof" for example (Also "Close sunroof").
There are 96 voice commands. Not all work on UK models. Most do.
Try "Turn on...
As above, I am thinking about it after a good conversation with them at EE South and following them on YT.
Any experiences good or bad, specifically with an MG4?
Thanks.

Hi folks,
I’ve got a MG4 Long range.
I only use rapid or fast charging.
Can I check what amps are the best to speed the charge up?
I’ve been told 16A is best
Thoughts appreciated
Just spotted this news report.

Sounds like a case of user error? Coincidence that the first reaction again is "I'll never step in another EV car"?!
For a while now, I'm having problems withe the Air Con: you want to demist the windows, so you turn on the air conditioning - just blowing air in, and a couple of minutes later it stops. You turn it off and back on , an the same happens. It's very frustrating, and dangerous if you are driving...
Hi,
Looking to buy a 2nd EV - this one for wife.
Looks to me like the late 2021/2022 refresh is where I want to be looking. A 2022 long range seems like what we want, and many are Trophy spec. Those are between £16K and £20K based on miles/colours/location etc. Does this seem like the right...
Hi all, So been about a month now since venturing into the EV route and so far enjoying the experience of my MG4.
One question I hope someone can help with.
I have a Zappi on IOG, all working fine, how do you know if the charge instigated by IOG has balanced charged the battery?
Does IOG it do...
Having done 2.5k miles it seems to have no rhyme or reason to what we are running in at any given time.
I can have my foot on the brake approaching a red light and the engine revs up.
When driving at a constant speed on level ground, it is forever hunting for the right gear & in and out of EV.
Hi, whilst having a general look under the bonnet I was surprised to see r134a stickers, since this has been banned in the uk since 1-Jan-17.
A Quick Look at compressors on eBay for this model shows these also clearly marked R134a.
What am I missing here?
