Why is the 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid a good choice?

The 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is a good choice if you are looking for a compact SUV due to its safety, its equipment, and the efficiency of its powertrain.

One of the safest vehicles around

The 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is one of the safest compact crossovers due to its strong safety cage and the large number of advanced safety features that are part of its standard equipment, which have contributed to it receiving the Top Safety Pick award from the IIHS last year. These features include the Lane Keeping Assist system that monitors the painted road markings as well as the edge of the pavement to assist the driver in keeping the vehicle in its lane. The available lane-centring feature goes further by providing steering input in order to place the RAV4 Hybrid in the center of its lane. Other safety features include the forward collision alert and the dynamic cruise control with stop and go feature.

A large array of standard and available features

The 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is offered with many of the most popular features either as part of its standard equipment or available on higher trim levels. Some of the features are designed to improve the comfort of the occupants, such as the dual-zone automatic climate control system, the standard heated front seats, the available heated rear seats and steering wheel, as well as the available ventilated front seats. Other features are there to keep you connected, such as the standard Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and others still increase safety, such as the Safety Connect, which can send a call to emergency services in case of an accident.

One of the most efficient compact SUVs

The 2023 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid is one of the most efficient compact SUVs available today due to its advanced hybrid powertrain that benefits from Toyota’s long tradition of hybrid vehicles. By using a 2,5L gasoline engine and two electric motors, the RAV4 Hybrid manages to be both more powerful and more efficient than the regular RAV4 as well as many of its hybrid competitors. With a fuel consumption of only 5,8L/100 km in the city and 6,3 L/100 km on the highway, the RAV4 Hybrid can help you save a lot on fuel costs.
