2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime Test Drive Review On And Off The Pavement

Driving Sports TV spends some quality time with the all-new 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime. The publication calls the new plug-in hybrid a "faster and more refined" RAV4. Since the gas-powered RAV4 and RAV4 Hybrid are already big hits, this move by Toyota makes perfect sense. However, sadly, the automaker doesn't have plans to make it available in large numbers in the U.S.

The RAV4 is one of the best-selling compact SUVs on the market today. Toyota completely redesigned it for the 2019 model year. which made it much better in many ways. It's practical, sporty, well-built, safe, and packed with features. In addition, the RAV4 earns praise for its excellent passenger and cargo space, as well as its decent off-road chops. The RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid offers all of these pros, plus plenty of instant torque and 42 miles of all-electric range.

On paper, the RAV4 Prime seems like a true winner. However, sometimes when an automaker produces an EV based on a gas-powered platform, there are issues. Since Toyota is the king when it comes to hybrid vehicles, we had little concern that the RAV4 Prime would be anything less than outstanding.
