Overview
Cars like the 2016 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid might not be able to give you the direct benefits one might expect from its hybrid powertrain. However, its use must not be overlooked. The RAV4 Hybrid uses its 2.5L Inline-4 and 3 motor hybrid system along with a 1.6 kWh battery to produce 194 horsepower. This gives the RAV4 Hybrid a 0-60 of 8.3 seconds. The hybrid engine here is to support the gasoline engine to boost performance and offer slightly better fuel economy than what a single gasoline engine would be capable of. That said, the 2016 RAV4 Hybrid achieves a combined fuel economy of 33 MPG. As part of the compact SUV, the RAV4 Hybrid competes with the Subaru Crosstrek Hybrid and the Lexus NX 300h Hybrid. Meanwhile, the Ford C-Max Hybrid Wagon is also a potential rival. It offers 2 trims, starting off at an MSRP of $28,370.
