Used Toyota RAV4 Prime for Sale near Calgary, AB

It is the best vehicle I’ve ever owned. I wouldn’t change anything about it!

Love having a 40+ mile EV range and flexibility of a hybrid after that. Rides nicely and very comfortable.

The Toyota RAV4 Prime SE checks the most boxes of desireability for my aituation. Things such as reliability, utility, economy, even entertainment is rated very high in this class of vehicle. When driving this vehicle it is quite, quick, easy, among other things to drive. The ability to drive for 40+ miles on pure electric between charges is very desireable. When that is paired with a 400+ mole range on a full tank of 87 octane gas it makes it very economical. The infotainment system is easy to use. Outward visibility is bester than competition with big windows and mirrors. This is some of my higher prioroty reasons why I chose this vehicle.

I love the all electric range. I’m actually getting 46-47mi of range compared to the EPA estimates of 42mi. All electric is whisper quiet and quite quick… gas powered is a bit sluggish though. I mainly drive all electric in traffic and on city streets and hybrid on the freeway. I have a Tesla and this is actually quieter and more comfortable.

The RAV4 Prime SE has met or exceeded my expectations for features, performance, and economy. The electric range around town is great and easily exceeds 50 miles depending on driving conditions. The acceleration is better than I expected using only the electric motors. The gas-only fuel economy at 75 to 80 MPH was over 30 MPG driving from Los Angeles to Mesquite on the first road trip. The size, comfort, and versatility are just what I needed to haul a lot of gear for kitesurfing/camping trips. The adaptive cruise is great on road trips and useful around town. One disappointment was the lack of one-foot driving. Using the transmission to downshift simulates this to an extent, but it cancels cruise control. The SE lacks paddle regen that is found on the XSE. Pressing the brake peddle does cause regen as indicated on the driving gauge, so the efficiency is there. The lane centering works pretty well on freeways as long as you are not in the right lane where exits confuse it. I find it uncomfortable to pass close to semitrucks using lane centering. It wont follow around sharper turns (like canyons) and it doesnt always sense the light touch of your hand on the wheel. This causing warnings and cancellations. Gripping tighter or with more weight on the wheel causes accidental overrides. Still, it is more useful than not on highways once you get used to it. Integration with Android Auto is nice for navigation, but requires connection via USB making it less useful for running short errands where you have to constantly connect and disconnect your phone. Aftermarket wireless connections are being developed, but are not available yet (8/2021). My other car is a 2012 Chevy Volt, so Im very familiar with plug-in hybrids. The RAV4 is better in most ways compared to the Volt with more range, more power, more comfort, and more tech features. Still, the Volt remains my daily driver around town even after 175K miles.
