DC charging time

Indicative DC charging time 10→80%, derived from battery capacity and charging power — not measured by us. Actual time depends on the charging curve, temperature and starting SoC.
Charging situation10→80% (min)
At a 150 kW charger ~ 8
At a 50 kW charger ~ 24
How is this calculated? We assume around 70% of the battery sits in the 10→80% window and an average power around 62% of peak (the curve tapers towards the end). At a fixed charger the power is capped to that charger. An estimate, not a manufacturer figure.

In depth

Strong point is the towing weight of 1,500 kg braked, unusually high for a PHEV; weak point is the high starting price and the fuel use once the battery is empty. Indicative starting price.

About the Toyota RAV4 Plug-in Hybrid (2024)

Independent spec and rating reference. No offers, no sales.

The plug-in combines a 2.5 petrol engine with two e-motors; the rear one provides electric four-wheel drive. System power is about 306 hp. WLTP EV range is about 75 km (manufacturer figure, not measured by us). The braked towing weight of 1,500 kg is high for a plug-in hybrid and makes a caravan or trailer feasible.

In practice

The WLTP fuel use of about 1.0 l/100km only applies with a full battery and a short test cycle; in practice the charging behaviour determines everything. Someone who charges daily and drives short trips sometimes gets around fully on electric power; someone who rarely charges drives a heavy SUV on petrol, with a fuel use well above the WLTP figure. We therefore give no fuel-economy figure at all: the spread is too large for a traceable number. The indicative list price rose from about 49,995 euro (peildatum early 2024) to 52,995 euro now, a starting price, not an offer and not a forecast.

Points to note

The starting price is considerably higher than that of the regular RAV4 Hybrid; work out whether the EV range earns back that difference with your use. With an empty battery the PHEV pack counts as ballast. The charging connection is alternating current (no fast charger), a full charge takes several hours at a wallbox.
