With a hybrid powertrain, the Toyota RAV4 gets better fuel economy. You'll now earn 47 miles per gallon driving through Charlotte Center City in the Toyota RAV4, along with 40 miles per gallon on the Concord Parkway.
It pays to drive a Toyota Hybrid SUV, as you'll reap the fuel savings at Charlotte pumps. The powertrain has been fine-tuned to deliver smoother acceleration and improved fuel economy, making the RAV4 an even more practical choice for everyday driving.
