Reviews SummaryPlug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) are perfect transition models for people who want to try an electric car but are not ready to completely give up the convenience of a gasoline engine. Enter the 2022 Toyota RAV4 Prime, a PHEV with an estimated 42 miles of electric range and a total estimate of almost 600 miles of travel between stops for electricity or gasoline. The RAV4 Prime arrived for the 2021 model year and there are no major changes for 2022. | |
Reviews SummaryThe Honda CR-V has been on sale in the US since the 1997 model year, and it first got a hybrid version in 2020. The hybrid powertrain was available in four trims, exclusively with all-wheel drive (AWD). Its gas-powered counterpart, meanwhile, was cheaper by three to four thousand dollars at each trim level, had even less-expensive front-wheel-drive (FWD) options, and came in six trims. Fast forward to 2023. Honda has simplified the CR-V lineup significantly. There are now only four trims total, two per powertrain. The CR-V Hybrid is available in either Sport or Sport Touring trim, positioning it clearly as the best Honda CR-V in production today. | |
