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 put that down to the car being at 75% charged when I started. 2nd time I went to a 22kw charger and the...

    This is pretty sexy I think. Special in a way the X Power isn't. (Ooo, Controversial Bricktop!) No, hear me out.... I love the way the wheels fit the arches. Proper performance brake caliper set up. Beautiful interior with quality materials. Looks like a nice place to be. Great styling...

    MG 4 EV tow bar and electrics

    Hi all, I want to replace my Nissan Micra with an MG 4 EV to tow my garden trailer, but can't find any for sale that are equipped with the tow bar and electrics. The car will only be used as a runabout as we have a petrol Karoq for long journeys. Any suggestions?
