2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime Coming Soon to San Francisco, CA

All-New RAV4 Prime

The already-impressive Toyota RAV4 lineup is about to get another upgrade when the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime, a high-performance PHEV (Plug-In Hybrid), arrives at dealerships like San Francisco Toyota later this year. The RAV4 Prime is the most powerful RAV4 yet, using a modified version of the RAV4 Hybrid’s 2.5-liter four-cylinder Atkinson-cycle gasoline engine that is paired with electric motors. The engine alone produces 176 horsepower, but when you add the electric power, the RAV4 Prime delivers a total output of 302 horsepower. It is also projected to go from 0 to 60 mph in an estimated 5.8 seconds, which is tops among the Toyota four-door lineup. Even with that kind of power and speed, it remains efficient. The RAV4 Prime is projected to achieve an EPA-estimated 90 combined MPGe (miles per gallon electric equivalent). Plus, it is expected to have a driving range of 39 miles on its battery alone after a full charge, which is the highest EV range of any of the PHEV SUVs that are available today.
