Another hybrid SUV is coming to the local market. And it’s with the Toyota badge.
Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) is boosting its range of Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEV) here with the arrival of its second hybrid SUV, the new RAV4 HEV.
The country’s leading automotive and mobility company said in a press release that the iconic model last refreshed in 2019 will pair up with the Corolla Cross HEV launched 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’s First Vice President for Vehicle Sales Operations.
Just 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 (TNGA) development, combined with the signature quality, durability, and reliability, suitable for the brave and adventurous.
Full features and specifications will be revealed soon on TMP’s website (toyota.com.ph) and social media channels (Toyota Motor Philippines on Facebook and Instagram, @ToyotaMotorPH on Twitter and Toyota PH on Viber).
Suggested Retail Price is expected to start at P2,157,000.
For reservations, inquire at your nearest Toyota dealership beginning January 17.
