The Toyota RAV4 Hybrid has proved to be a savvy pick for anyone looking to get the most out of every precious fuel dollar (and who isn’t these days?). While drivers have made the basic RAV4 Hybrid a hugely popular choice at Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield, PA, there are some variations on this compact SUV that we’d like to share. For starters, the RAV4 Hybrid XSE model.
While each RAV4 Hybrid boasts impressive interior space, the XSE goes a little further. Even with four passengers and a lot of gear, no one will ever feel cramped. The fold-down rear seats make it easy to load in bigger items, like bicycles for a weekend outdoor adventure. Plus, the seats can be folded down from either the second row or the cargo area; the wide tailgate makes loading and unloading a cinch.
The XSE, available at Peruzzi Toyota, boasts loads of standard features which make it a great value (even as a top-of-the line model). One that gets the regular thumbs-up from customers is the 8.0-inch touch screen, positioned nicely atop the dash where the driver’s sight line can easily pick it up.
On the outside, the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE boasts a sleeker, sportier look than other trims. With standard two-tone paint, unique front and rear elements, 18-inch wheels, and special side-moldings, the XSE is pumped way up over other models.
That muscularity is further reflected in performance. From a stop, you’ll feel the 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine kick in solidly, with 176 hp and 163 lb.-ft of torque. And of course, there’s the famous Toyota hybrid fuel-efficiency. With the RAV4 Hybrid XSE, expect 41/38/40 mpg city/highway/combined – which tops similar models in the segment. Response is quick and solid.
When all is said and done, upgrading to the Toyota RAV4 Hybrid XSE will give you performance, roominess and style (both inside and out) on another level. Want to do a comparison? Come by Peruzzi Toyota in Hatfield and we’ll be happy to show you around.
