Toyota RAV4
The gasoline-powered RAV4 and the RAV4 Hybrid are joined by a new plug-in hybrid variant called RAV4 Prime for 2021. It combines a four-cylinder engine with two electric motors to generate a total of 302 horsepower, while its 18.1-kWh battery allows zero-emission driving for 68 kilometres. All RAV4 models benefit from the Toyota Safety Sense 2.0 system as standard equipment. Towing capacity ranges from 1,500-3,500 pounds. Unsurprisingly, this is the best-selling SUV in Canada.
