The RAV4 Prime is impressive. Sadly, it's not a real vehicle that nearly all would-be customers can purchase until at least the 2023 model year. Toyota has said that no more than 5000 units will be produced for the 2021 model year. Virtually every one of those is already spoken for. For 2022 Toyota promises 25,000 units will be available in the US. But again, virtually all of that production run will be spoken for with deposits plunked down in 2020-2021 before the first vehicle is delivered to dealers. So realistically the pre-production models Toyota has been providing to reviewers are a marketing ploy designed to put the brakes on the sales of competitors' actually available plug-in hybrids and to draw traffic into showrooms where the already existing Rav4 hybrid can be sold in what amounts to a bait-and-switch scheme.
