Caralogy Verdict
Suitable for

Home-to-office commute up to 60 km in pure electric. Overnight charging is sufficient. 2nd of 13 in Electric WLTP range (75 km), 2nd of 13 in Combined range (992 km), 1st of 13 in 0–100 km/h (6.0 s).

Alternatives to consider

If the priority is Electric WLTP range, the Honda CR-V e:PHEV (1st with 81 km) takes the lead. If the priority is Combined range, the Ford Kuga PHEV 225 (1st with 1013 km) takes the lead.

In the city: 75 km pure electric (top 2 in segment)

With a full battery, the RAV4 PHEV drives in pure electric mode for the first 75 km WLTP - placing it 2nd of 13 in Electric WLTP range, behind the Honda CR-V e:PHEV (81 km). In urban and peri-urban use, the RAV4 PHEV behaves like a pure electric sedan in its segment.
