If you’re in the market for a car that takes your gas further without compromising on speed, look no further than the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. It’s an exciting step into the world of electric motors, and in 2023, the fan-favorite car gets an upgrade that makes infotainment more accessible and off-roading that much easier. All this while holding on to the features that made it such a great vehicle. The RAV4 Hybrid is available now at your local Toyota dealer.
New in 2023
Joining the lineup this year is the Woodland Edition of the RAV4, which is designed for those who love to take their vehicle off-road. This package gets you all-terrain tires and a TRD suspension kit, which includes springs, bump stops, and dampers. Rounding out the aesthetic are 18.0-inch bronze alloy wheels, roof racks, and mud flaps. Another exciting upgrade is that the next-generation infotainment system from Toyota now comes standard across all trims.
Peak Speed and Power
The Hybrid marries a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine with two electric motors, resulting in 219 horsepower. Impressively, the Hybrid RAV4 manages to get from 0 to 60 in 7.3 seconds; the Prime model makes it in a mere 5.6 seconds. This makes the Hybrid at least .7 seconds faster than the gas-only RAV4. It’s this zippiness that makes it such a delightful drive, along with the electric motor’s responsiveness. Continuously variable automatic transmission and all-wheel drive come standard.
A Practical, Clever Cabin
The Hybrid’s sleek, modern interior has been designed with both comfort and function in mind. There are plenty of storage spots throughout the cabin, such as bins and cubbies, plus 37.6 cubic feet of cargo space behind the 60/40 split-folding rear seats. A combination of hard and soft-touch surfaces adds lovely texture to the space, plus many excellent features come standard. These include a telescoping steering wheel, cloth upholstery on the seats, and dual-zone automatic climate control.
Impressive Infotainment Comes Standard
Toyota’s all-new infotainment system is sleek and functional. Base-level trims will have you enjoying an 8.0-inch infotainment display, while upgrading to the XSE and beyond make that 10.5-inches. Other standard features include WiFi hotspot, a voice-activated virtual assistant, a six-speaker system, and satellite radio. Also available are things like an 11-speaker stereo and a 120-volt power outlet. Safety features such as forward collision warning, a rearview camera, and automatic emergency braking come standard.
Whether you want to tear down the highway, take on some seriously tough terrain, load up the trunk for a family vacation, or blast your favorite tracks through a hardcore audio system, the RAV4 Hybrid has you covered. Ready to take one for a test drive? Come to Burien Toyota in Burien, WA, today.
