Vehicle details
Toyota RAV4 2.5 VVT-i Hybrid Design 5dr CVT 2WD Hybrid Estate, , The Toyota RAV4 Estate 2.5 VVT-i Hybrid Design 5dr CVT 2WD stands as a testament to the evolution of the modern family SUV, seamlessly blending efficiency with everyday practicality. This fifth-generation model is built upon the Toyota New Global Architecture (GA-K) platform, which has been meticulously engineered to provide a lower centre of gravity and increased chassis rigidity. The result is a vehicle that feels remarkably planted and stable, offering a driving experience that prioritises comfort and composure over aggressive performance.
Central to its appeal is the advanced self-charging hybrid powertrain. Combining a 2.5-litre petrol engine with a high-output electric motor, the system delivers a combined power output of 215 to 218 brake horsepower. This configuration allows the vehicle to transition effortlessly between pure electric mode at low urban speeds and a combined power delivery for motorway cruising. Unlike plug-in alternatives, this self-charging system requires no external charging, instead recovering kinetic energy during deceleration to keep the battery topped up. This leads to impressive fuel efficiency, with WLTP combined figures reaching up to 50.4 miles per gallon and CO2 emissions as low as 126g/km, making it a cost-effective choice for both private owners and company car users.
