When you think about hybrid vehicles, an image of a vehicle that can peel out of a red light and leave surrounding cars in the dust might not come to mind. The 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime in San Francisco, CA aims to change that. This new addition to the impressive and popular RAV4 family is one of the quickest in the entire Toyota lineup, hitting zero to 60 mph in just under six seconds. It’s also the most powerful RAV4 ever, with its gasoline engine and electric motors joining forces to deliver 302 horsepower.
Two trims of the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime are available: Prime SE and Prime XSE. This gives you a couple of different options to tailor the RAV4 Prime to your needs and preferences.
