2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SE AWD Review
If you want efficiency, the RAV4 Hybrid is a fuel-stingy model for urban commuters. Don?t think that hybrid means slow on the go either. It?s peppy and has quick acceleration. With its hybrid powertrain and all-wheel drive, it?s almost in a class by itself.
This week, we drove the 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SE AWD.
What?s New For 2018
The Hybrid can now be had in an LE base trim, further lowering its point of entry, while an Adventure trim is available for the first time. The SE also gains 0.4-inches of ground clearance.

The 2018 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid SE AWD ($32,185) comes standard with a seven-inch touchscreen, heated outside mirrors, smartphone app integration, and satellite radio.
