When the current generation RAV4 Hybrid was introduced in early 2019, it redefined expectations for hybrid vehicles. Now, Toyota is pushing boundaries again with the first-ever 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime, set to be the most powerful RAV4 model to date. This new, premium, and exciting RAV4 performance model boasts an impressive 302 combined net horsepower, advanced all-wheel drive, and exclusive design elements, positioning it above the standard models. With an estimated 0-60 mph acceleration in just 5.7 seconds, the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime stands as the quickest four-door vehicle in the Toyota lineup.
The 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime also offers an EPA-estimated all-electric driving range of 42 miles on a single charge. This remarkable range is the highest EV range among any PHEV SUVs currently available in the market. Furthermore, the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime achieves an EPA-estimated 94 combined MPGe. A key differentiator is its standard Electronic On-Demand AWD system, making it a versatile SUV ready for diverse driving conditions. This AWD system utilizes a separate electric motor to power the rear wheels when needed, proactively engaging during acceleration and in slippery conditions. Off-road, the AWD enhances hill-climbing capability.
Available in SE and XSE trims, the 2021 Toyota RAV4 Prime leads in technology and safety features. Standard features include Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and Amazon Alexa compatibility. Available upgrades include a 9-inch multimedia touchscreen and a Head-Up Display, further enhancing the driving experience of the 2021 Toyota RAV4.
