If you're looking for a hybrid SUV that will be efficient without sacrificing the all too important performance, then you should take a look at the vehicle that's at the top of MotorTrend's list of Best Small Hybrid SUVs, the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid. It earned that coveted #1 spot thanks to its amazing fuel economy, as well as its versatility and ease of use. The 2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid: A Blend of Efficiency and Performance Fuel Economy and Power It goes without saying that this hybrid is more efficient than its gasoline-only counterpart. On top of that, it's mighty powerful at an outstanding 219 net combined horsepower with the help of its 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine. This will get you 41 mpg in the city and 38 mpg on the highway, as the EPA estimates, as well as a really sleek acceleration when you head up to highway speeds. In addition, to make sure you have all the control, all models come standard with both Electric On-Demand All-Wheel Drive and an array of drive modes. The Eco Mode lets you take your efficiency even further, while EV Mode keeps you powered by the battery. And, if you plan for some off-road adventures, the Hybrid Woodland Edition's Falken WILDPEAK A/T tires allow for one rugged ride. A Safer Performance Toyota Safety Sense 2.5 allows your vehicle to perform more safely as you confidently drive on the highway or surface roads, knowing your car is working hard to keep you safe. Features, which come standard on all models, include a Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist, and more. Another great feature is the Road Sign Assist, which will be a few steps ahead of you, showing you road signs on the multi-information display. Other helpful tools that come standard on all models are the Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Downhill Assist Control, and Hill Start Assist Control. Also, the available Panoramic View Monitor with 360 degree Overhead View checks your surroundings for hazards and provides you a bird's eye-view of your vehicle. The Infotainment A large part of what makes this SUV a great ride is the entertainment that comes along with it, including the multimedia touchscreen with speakers and wireless connectivity to Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The screen on the Hybrid Woodland Edition, Hybrid LE, Hybrid XLE Premium, and Hybrid SE is 8-inches, while it'll be 10-inches on the Hybrid Limited and Hybrid XSE trims.
