Get While You Can - 2013 Toyota RAV4 EV
By gg77 - January 21 - 2:50 pmIf you golf, youve heard of a Poor Mans Pebble in reference to Pebble Beach. Well, this is a Poor Mans Tesla...btw, this is a complement. Like other posters have said, youre getting the Tesla motor without having to put down another $20k+. Prior cars include an Audi A4 and Jeep Grand Cherokee. While this does not include 4WD it matches/exceeds their speed/torque off the line, has as much storage as the Jeep, and is a smoother ride than either. Yes, Im pleased. I understand the model is being phased out by end of 2014 due to meeting of CA EPA regulations so get one while you can.

Great Electric Car - 2013 Toyota RAV4 EV
By kesscalade - April 22 - 3:05 amIve owned the Rav4EV for about 5 months now and I love it! I did a lot of EV car research and in summary this car is as good as it gets without shelling out another $20,000 minimum to get a Tesla, which are phenomenal cars. Really fun to drive. Since the car is a Tesla/Toyota venture you feel the power and fun driving experience of the Tesla to some degree but still have the size and space of an SUV. For someone who dislikes small cars this car was a perfect choice for me. Cant beat the silent drive and zero gas stops. Great interior look and feel as well!
