ELECTRIC VEHICLE SYSTEM
Starting the EV System
The RAV4 EV uses electricity in a rechargeable traction battery to power the
electric motor. The driving range is extended by using regenerative braking to
store electricity in the traction battery. This technology is clean and has a low
impact on the environment by not emitting exhaust such as CO
2 or NOX during
operation.
Tips for reducing battery consumption
-Keep the EV System indicator needle within the ECO area.
-Drive in normal mode.
-When possible, avoid driving on steep inclines.
-Avoid driving at speeds that are higher than necessary, especially on the highway.
-When possible, avoid sudden stops to maximize regenerative braking energy.
-Minimize use of Air Conditioning and heating; the seat heater may also be used to
supplement heating.
-Maintain recommended tire pressure and avoid carrying unnecessary luggage.
-Utilize the Pre-climate function to warm or cool cabin before driving.
Electric Vehicle SystemRange Map screen
The driving area possible on the current charge level can be displayed as a
reference, as can charge stations in the surrounding area.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for more details.
(1) Depress the brake pedal, and
press the “POWER” switch
while in Park.
(2) After a few seconds the “READY” light comes on and a
beep sounds.
