RAV4 Plug-in

Hybrid and plug-in hybrid cars use the same proven Toyota Hybrid technology, but with a notable difference.

All Toyota Hybrids drive using either electric energy or a combination of petrol and electric. This offers a high degree of flexibility, particularly for longer journeys.

Toyota Plug-in Hybrids feature a significantly higher capacity battery and a greater pure electric driving range of up to 46 miles*. Plug-ins can be charged from an external electricity source, such as a domestic socket, or a dedicated wall box. While charging as often as possible will allow for maximum efficiency, Toyota plug-in hybrids run in hybrid mode even when uncharged.

The RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid is responsive and delivers an enjoyable driving experience.

With lower CO2 emissions and increased efficiency compared to a conventional combustion engine car, RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid also delivers great fuel economy.

You can also benefit from an incredible electric drive – from instant torque to a fully silent interior space.

RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid has a pure electric range of up to 46 miles*.

For longer journeys, the RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid seamlessly switches to operating as a Hybrid car, combining petrol and regenerated battery power.

Charging a plug-in hybrid is easy and you can charge whilst you are at home, or at a growing number of locations when travelling.

There are two methods of charging the RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid

 

Fast (7kW to 22kW)
Much faster than a normal plug, dedicated EV chargers, such as Toyota HomeCharge can be installed at home or found in many public and workplace car parks. You can also find fast chargers in a growing number of workplaces and public car parks.

 

Slow (3.7kW)
You can even charge your vehicle through a domestic 3-pin plug socket which can be convenient although this is a slower way to charge.

You can even use a domestic home socket if required although this is a slower way to charge, this will fully charge your RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid in approximately 7 hours and 30 minutes^.

Public chargers
Just like a dedicated charger at home the battery will be fully charged in around 2 hours and 45 minutes^.

 

^Indicative charge time, for comparison purposes. Actual charging times may vary depending on various factors, including the age, type, condition and temperature of the charging unit and the battery, the starting charge and environmental conditions at the point of use.

Charge times may be longer in colder weather and if battery temperature activates safeguarding technology. 150kW+ chargers are available in many locations in mainland Great Britain – see Zap Map (Opens in new window) for details. They are not yet available in Northern Ireland.
