#ToyotaRav4Ev

When it comes to technology, having the latest gadgets makes you look both smart and cool, but does that strategy work with cars? Automakers say that electric vehicles are the future of the industry, but even with many EVs on the market, they may not be the perfect choice for you. 

August new-vehicle sales in the U.S. were up an impressive 17 percent compared to the same month last year, with almost every automaker posting solid gains. But perhaps a bigger surprise has to do with how well plug-in and electric vehicles performed on the market.

Following in the footsteps of other automakers that are now offering discounts for their EVs, Toyota has discounted its RAV4 EV’s lease to $299 a month, for three years.

The Toyota RAV4 EV is getting ready for its California launch, and has now received an official EPA-rated 78-MPGe in the city and 74-MPGe on the highway.

The fourth video spotlighting the new Toyota RAV4 EV has just been released, focusing on the innovative technology to enhance the driving experience of the electric SUV.

One of the biggest hurdles automakers have to overcome with marketing electric vehicles is decreasing range anxiety with its consumers. Toyota recently resurrected its RAV4 EV model, offering an electric crossover with a range of 92 miles, or 113 miles in an extended mode.

Toyota has just released the second part of a video series chronicling the development of the RAV4 EV. This video focuses on the aerodynamics of the electric crossover.
