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).
Hi folks,
I’ve got a MG4 Long range.
I only use rapid or fast charging.
Can I check what amps are the best to speed the charge up?
I’ve been told 16A is best
Thoughts appreciated
Just spotted this news report.

Sounds like a case of user error? Coincidence that the first reaction again is "I'll never step in another EV car"?!
For a while now, I'm having problems withe the Air Con: you want to demist the windows, so you turn on the air conditioning - just blowing air in, and a couple of minutes later it stops. You turn it off and back on , an the same happens. It's very frustrating, and dangerous if you are driving...
Hi,
Looking to buy a 2nd EV - this one for wife.
Looks to me like the late 2021/2022 refresh is where I want to be looking. A 2022 long range seems like what we want, and many are Trophy spec. Those are between £16K and £20K based on miles/colours/location etc. Does this seem like the right...
Hi all, So been about a month now since venturing into the EV route and so far enjoying the experience of my MG4.
One question I hope someone can help with.
I have a Zappi on IOG, all working fine, how do you know if the charge instigated by IOG has balanced charged the battery?
Does IOG it do...
Having done 2.5k miles it seems to have no rhyme or reason to what we are running in at any given time.
I can have my foot on the brake approaching a red light and the engine revs up.
When driving at a constant speed on level ground, it is forever hunting for the right gear & in and out of EV.
Hi, whilst having a general look under the bonnet I was surprised to see r134a stickers, since this has been banned in the uk since 1-Jan-17.
A Quick Look at compressors on eBay for this model shows these also clearly marked R134a.
What am I missing here?
We have two quotes now, but neither one mentions servicing the EV side of the car, has anyone else had a quote for that.
The way I see it is the engine is an engine and can be serviced much cheaper elsewhere so why pay dealer rates.
Hi, anyone interested in my pre-facelift MG ZS EV, Feb 2020 '69 Reg 31,600 miles so quite a bit of guarantee left as I've had it MG serviced. It's the model with large sunroof, heated front seats, spare wheel, reversing camera, black faux leather seats, alloys, mg logo mats, cruise control etc...
Hello all, I have just taken possession of my first ev an MG4 Trophy long range and I have a question. Is it ok to use a rapid charger on a regular basis as this is currently my only means available to me to charge my car? I am told it may affect the battery life ? Would appreciate your...
Replaced the HV battery with one from wreck, wreck was fully drivable and had no codes listed
The car is now showing code P0A0D00 and shows the error message...HV battery shut off, and vehicle control fault on dash.
I have watched the YouTube video on swapping battery and he never had to do any...
How is this possible? Ad says 'Brand New' but car has 17" wheels, no rear wiper, no central headrest. So about 18 months old :unsure:

Trading standards, anyone?
Hello!
Newbie here... After a week or so reading reviews etc I've just ordered an MG 4 Trophy extended range. It will be my first EV, so I thought it would be really useful to shout out to owners, as I'm sure there will be things I'm not aware of, or don't fully understand.
I have a daily 20...
So what will you trade up to after your MG3 Hybrid? Is it a transition step to full EV? Keeping it forever? Switching brands?
I am leaning towards trading up to a 2025 MG ES5, full EV, which is based on the MG4 platform. Sticking with MG, I need a bit more room.
Hi everyone. Any recommendations from experience for new tyres for ZS EV facelift?
My Maxxis have worn quickly so looking to replace all 4 now with better ones. Thanks for any input.
I need some advice as a complete newbie to EV’s.
I am very interested in the MG4ER but have some concerns about range and could do with some experienced drivers confirming the true figures.
I can put a home charger in but I regularly drive 200+ miles for social and business and don’t want to...
