Eco-conscious drivers looking for a modern compact SUV should get to know the 2025 Toyota RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid. Its fuel efficiency is sure to delight, complemented by a wealth of standard equipment that enhances its value and a powerful engine that will excite any driving enthusiast.

Power That Pleases

There are numerous RAV4 trims with a hybrid powertrain under the hood, and the plug-in hybrid is the most powerful of all. Paired with the electric motor, the plug-in hybrid engine has an output of 302 horsepower, and you can really feel the engine’s zippiness during everyday driving. Although the vehicle is powerful, it’s easy to handle and delivers a comfortable ride.

Efficiency You’ll Enjoy

This plug-in hybrid has an estimated fuel economy of 94 MPGe and 38 mpg. This rating makes it a highly efficient vehicle, so you won’t have to spend too much time at the gas pump or hooked up to a charger. If you want to drive in all-electric mode, expect to drive around 42 miles before needing to charge up. That should get you through a typical day, considering the average American drives a little under 40 miles daily.

You can charge the vehicle in 2.5 hours when connected to a 240-charger, so if you need to charge up during the day, then you won’t be waiting too long. It takes 12 hours to recharge when using a 120-volt outlet, so the car can charge up throughout the evening and overnight if needed.

Cavernous Cargo Space

There’s a lot of space in this SUV despite its compact size. It has a 37.6 cubic foot cargo area behind the back row. The cargo area has a minimum width of 39.4 inches and a minimum height of 34.5 inches. With all that space, you can pack in a lot of cargo. Up to 10 carry-on suitcases fit back there depending on their size. You can also fold down the rear seat and expand the cargo area to fit double that amount of luggage into the cabin.

Different Driving Dynamics

With SPORT, NORMAL, Eco, TRAIL, and EV driving modes, you can change the driving dynamics of your vehicle depending on your preferences. You can cycle through these modes using a simple dial. SPORT increases the engine’s RPM for more powerful acceleration, and it makes the vehicle feel more agile. Eco mode maximizes fuel economy by changing the throttle characteristics and air-conditioning operation. TRAIL mode is ideal for off-roading.
