Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) welcomes 2022 with the launch next month of the new RAV4 hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) in its aims to continue to lead the way to sustainable mobility.
This is TMP’s second hybrid crossover, following the introduction of the hit Corolla Cross HEV in 2020.
“The rapid succession of Toyota’s HEV model introductions in the country is an indicator that hybrid cars are now mainstream. Filipinos are ready for energy efficient mobility options with less emissions, and Hybrids offer choices that are practical and ready to use in our existing infrastructure and road conditions,” said Sherwin Chualim, TMP first vice president for Vehicle Sales Operations.
Last December, TMP launched the new Camry HEV for the luxury sedan segment.
The launch of the RAV4 HEV will bring TMP’s total Hybrid models to five, adding up to the pioneering Prius, Corolla Altis HEV and Corolla Cross HEV.
On top of the self-charging hybrid technology (no need to plug in) the new RAV4 HEV is expected to carry more exciting innovation and technology, like advanced safety features, Toyota New Global Architecture development, combined with the signature quality, durability, and reliability, suitable for the brave and adventurous.
Suggested retail price is expected to start at P2.157 million. – Irma Isip
