Toyota will extend current RAV4 range with the introduction of a new, eco-friendly version. The world premiere will take place during next week New York Auto Show and the car unveiled will be the RAV4 Hybrid, the first version of this kind ever introduced on a RAV4.
Toyota already published some teaser images of the new model, showing the rear taillight and the inscription on the tailgate.
No other information is available at the moment, but there are some speculation regarding the hybrid architecture. This could be shared with the one we see in the NX300h hybrid crossover. This means a conventional 2.5 liter gasoline engine, naturally aspirated, helped by an electric motor and a CVT gearbox.
This combination will help the compact SUV to lower its emission, even if it could deliver 155 hp. More information will be announced later this week.
