The Toyota RAV4 EV is an all-electric version of the popular RAV4 SUV produced by Toyota until 2014. Two generations of the EV model were sold in California, and to fleets elsewhere in the US, with a gap of almost ten years between them.
The first generation was leased from 1997 to 2003, and at the lessees' request, many units were sold after the vehicle was discontinued. A total of 1,484 were leased and/or sold in California to meet the state's mandate for zero-emissions vehicle. A small number were sold or leased in fleet sales in other states. As of mid-2012, there were almost 500 vehicles still in use in California. Production of the second generation EV was limited to 2,600 units during a three-year run, with sales limited to California beginning in 2012. Production ended in September 2014. A total of 2,489 units of the second generation model were sold in California through April 2015.Toyota worked together with Tesla Motors and Panasonic to develop the second generation RAV4 EV, and the electric SUV was released in the United States in September 2012. The US Environmental Protection Agency rated the second generation RAV4 EV with a range of 103 mi (166 km) and a combined fuel economy rating of 76 miles per gallon gasoline equivalent (3.1 L/100 km).

    Overdrive - why not?

    When I was a nippa many cars were fitted with an overdrive gear activated by a switch on the gear stick or a stalk. It gave you a higher cruising gear. Has anyone seen anything like this in an EV? With a reduction gearbox and buckets of torque available in every EV it would seem an efficient way...

    Will selfish EV owners inhibit the uptake of EVs ?

    Maybe I'm being a bit petty but I've noticed that many EV drivers are using my local Connected Kerb for periods exceeding 12 hours . As I type ther's one that's been "charging " for 15 hours . There are only two charging posts there thus rendering one unusable for the greater part of the day ...

    Tethered vs Untethered EV Chargers?

    Any thoughts on whether there is any real difference? Currently looking at a Zappi which has both tethered and untethered options. It will be in the garage (as that's where I park my car - I know it's unusual... ?), and I'd probably just buy a type2 cable to sit there anyway even with...
