part of the original features of plug-in hybrid vehicles such as environmental performance and economy is being talked about.&nbsp;In this car, Toyota itself has a sign that is appealing for parts other than environmental performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest topic on the RAV4 PHV will be price.&nbsp;There are three grades, but even the cheapest &#8220;G&#8221; costs 4.69 million yen.&nbsp;Compared to the RAV4 (4WD of &#8220;Hybrid G&#8221;), which has almost the same conditions except for the plug-in, the main unit price is about 800,000 yen higher.&nbsp;This is clearly larger than the price difference (about 650,000 yen) between the equivalent grades of the &#8220;Prius PHV&#8221; and &#8220;Prius&#8221;, which can be said to be the predecessors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, the RAV4 PHV&#8217;s superlative &#8220;black tone&#8221; costs 5.39 million yen.&nbsp;According to online information, it seems to be more expensive than the highest grade of the new &#8220;Harrier&#8221;.&nbsp;Generally, Toyota&#8217;s domestic passenger cars with price tags exceeding 5 million yen are &#8220;Century&#8221; and &#8220;Mirai&#8221;, as well as &#8220;Crown&#8221;, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/toyota-alphard-executive-lounge-s-hybrid-4wd-cvt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Alphard \/ Vellfire<\/a>&#8220;, &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/toyota-land-cruiser-vs-nissan-patrol\/\">Land Cruiser<\/a>&#8221;

that omits the amount of external power consumption.&nbsp;Even with the current Prius, hybrid fuel efficiency is the same for PHVs and non-PHVs.&nbsp;However, the RAV4 PHV this time has been improved (20.6 \u2192 22.2 km\/liter) in terms of hybrid fuel efficiency compared to the same 2.5-liter hybrid RAV4.&nbsp;This point should be evaluated frankly.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"730\" height=\"602\" data-src=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-pehv.jpg\" alt=\"\" data-id=\"2246\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-pehv.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=2246\" class=\"wp-image-2246 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-pehv.jpg 730w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-pehv-300x247.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-pehv-150x124.jpg 150w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-pehv-450x371.jpg 450w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 730px;

of 220,000 yen and environmental performance. The discount (formerly the automobile acquisition tax) is also given preferential treatment, so the difference in the amount paid at the time of purchase will eventually be reduced to about 550,000 yen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the RAV4 PHV is still not an easy &#8220;moto&#8221; in the pure economy, as long as it is used normally by ordinary drivers.&nbsp;It&#8217;s not limited to the RAV4, but the Prius PHV and so on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, the cheapest way to operate a PHV at the lowest energy cost is to drive the car as a pure EV and charge all the electricity at home.&nbsp;Electricity charges fluctuate depending on the contract and the electricity cost of the car, but considering the results of the Leaf etc., it is about 25,000 to 35,000 yen for 10,000 km per year.&nbsp;The rest will be a little compression with a free charging service on the go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, even with a normal RAV4 hybrid 4WD, the fuel consumption is 20.6km \/ liter in WLTC mode.&nbsp;Even if the actual fuel consumption is estimated to be about 10% lower than that, 18.0km \/ liter, the gasoline required to run 10,000km is about 555 liters, and if the liter is 125 yen, the gasoline cost is about 70,000 per 10,000km. Circle.&nbsp;By simple calculation, even if it is 100,000 km for 10 years, the difference moto at the time of purchase cannot be taken.&nbsp;It can be said that such a composition is similar to the Prius PHV and other commercial plug-in hybrids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The biggest Achilles heel of current plug-in hybrid vehicles is thus that they still do not have an economic advantage over existing environmentally friendly vehicles.&nbsp;The current Prius PHV has also changed from its predecessor to a PHV-only exterior design, but the current domestic sales volume is around 1000 units per month, which is far below the initial monthly sales target (2500 units). ing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The reason why the <a href=\"https:\/\/toyota.jp\/rav4phv\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">RAV4 PHV<\/a> this time does not strongly appeal to the environmental performance and economy is largely due to the experience with the Prius PHV.&nbsp;To be clear, the reality is that you cannot make money in the environment.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"730\" height=\"954\" data-src=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-1.jpg\" alt=\"Toyota RAV4 PHV\" data-id=\"2256\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-1.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=2256\" class=\"wp-image-2256 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-1.jpg 730w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-1-230x300.jpg 230w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-1-150x196.jpg 150w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-1-450x588.jpg 450w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 730px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 730\/954;\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RAV4 Hybrid vs RAV4 PHV: Problems that only EV can solve<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It is a fact that future cars will have to go on the path of electrification and EV.&nbsp;There are almost no exceptions in automobile administration around the world, and they are declining to electrify and EV.&nbsp;However, at the same time, the electrification and EV conversion of cars is not progressing as the authorities expected, anywhere in the world.&nbsp;The reason is that electric vehicles and EVs still have challenges in terms of price and energy supply, and end-users do not buy them as the authorities expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, the trend toward electrification and EV of cars will not go back even if there are some ups and downs.&nbsp;This is because EVs can only solve the environmental problems of vehicles such as toxic substances such as NOx and PM or greenhouse gases (CO2).&nbsp;No matter how strict the fuel consumption and exhaust gas of the internal combustion engine are regulated, neither toxic gas nor greenhouse gas will be zero forever, and at worst, it is just a cat-and-mouse game.&nbsp;Instead, if all cars in the world become EVs, the problem of exhaust gas from cars will disappear completely at that moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, &#8220;Given the production and disposal of batteries and the CO2 emitted during power generation, EVs do not have zero emissions&#8221; or &#8220;In order to run a large number of EVs every day, in reality, we have to rely on nuclear power generation! There is also a reason for &#8220;engine car advocacy theory&#8221; such as &#8220;?&#8221;.&nbsp;However, the job of the environmental authorities of cars is to &#8220;make sure that the car in front of us does not emit bad things&#8221;, and the global energy debate is nothing more than another person for them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, even if Toyota really thinks that the hybrids they make are more realistic and efficient than plug-ins and EVs, there is no option not to do plug-ins and EVs.&nbsp;Toyota&#8217;s intention to make such a plug-in a product that can be sold in the current market is realized as one form of this RAV4 PHV.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<!--nextpage-->\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"730\" height=\"527\" data-src=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-streer.jpg\" alt=\"Toyota RAV4 Hybrid\" data-id=\"2250\" data-full-url=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-streer.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/?attachment_id=2250\" class=\"wp-image-2250 lazyload\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-streer.jpg 730w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-streer-300x217.jpg 300w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-streer-150x108.jpg 150w, https:\/\/tokyocarz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/rav-4-red-streer-450x325.jpg 450w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 730px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 730\/527;\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">The &#8220;RAV4 \u200b\u200bPHV&#8221; boasts a speed of 0-100km \/ h acceleration of 6.0 seconds.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">RAV4 Hybrid vs RAV4 PHV: Commerciality that sticks to the &#8220;old-fashioned system that rang a little&#8221;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Toyota chose &#8220;speed&#8221; as the greatest commercial value of the RAV4 PHV.&nbsp;The system output of the powertrain reaches 306PS, which is the base due to the high performance of the battery and motor.&nbsp;0-100km \/ h acceleration is 6.0 seconds.&nbsp;For example, the number &#8220;Zerohyaku 6 seconds flat&#8221; is between &#8220;SZ-R&#8221; and &#8220;SZ&#8221; (closer to SZ) in Supra, or 0.3 seconds in &#8220;Honda Civic Type R&#8221;.&nbsp;In any case, it is one of the fastest SUVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the system output of the existing RAV4 hybrid is 222PS, the power performance of the PHV is calculated to be increased by 84PS.&nbsp;As many people know, the market price for cars has long been &#8220;1PS up = 10,000 yen up&#8221;.&nbsp;In other words, the PHV price of RAV4 = about 800,000 yen is set so that we, the old generation car lovers, can honestly convince us that the price is about 80PS.&nbsp;When it comes to that, the other merit peculiar to PHVs is like a bonus that is added to the speed as a whole (?).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, when we name this plug-in system &#8220;E-Booster&#8221;, we can see the intention of planning this PHV, and at the same time, I think it is a hateful sense to tickle the old generation car lovers.&nbsp;There is something in common with &#8220;turbo&#8221; that the image of the word that seems to be &#8220;it seems to be fast even if you do not understand the actual mechanism&#8221;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The RAV4 PHV is probably the best-selling mass-produced plug-in hybrid vehicle of all time.&nbsp;If you are a car enthusiast who is looking for a middle-class SUV as a purchase candidate, especially middle-aged and older people who &#8220;sounded a little in the old days&#8221;, &#8220;If your budget allows, it is decided by RAV4 PHV.
