| Answer to: Honda CR-Z opinions | 24Relevance | 5 years ago | Kaizen | Submit Your Question HERE | |
| Batteries eventually need replacing. Whether it is a Honda hybrid, or a Toyota hybrid. With that said, I recommend doing research on how the specific IMA hybrid works for the CR-Z. In the Early 2000’s Civic hybrid, it had a backup starter, so you could technically use the car without the hybrid component. A modern Honda hybrid doesn’t have this feature, as it runs mostly on an electric motor. The CR-Z falls in between the old IMA and the modern hybrid, so I am not sure how it works. | |||||

| @oneeyeopen In my opinion, if you look at the time scale that crude oil cars have been around vs hybrid/ev, the market is fairly new, I'm no expert on hybrid by far, but I do know that battery's and high voltage systems need to meet certain temperature requirements in order to extend the life of em. Seeing as how you live in alaska I believe that you can get way more out of your gas car than if you decided to go hybrid. | |||||

| ... miles. hybrids in general are a more complex system. There is an Internal Combustion Engine. There is an Electric Motor. There is an eCVT which figures out the power it is is getting from the ICE and/or Electric Motor to transfer to the wheels. There is the cooling systems, systems with an s, one for the ICE, one for the Electric Motor. And of course, there is the biggest concern, the hybrid battery (traction battery). At the same time, with all the complexity, the vehicle is somewhat simplified. There is no stand alone starter. There is no sta ... | |||||

| ... on earlier years of this generation RAV4. I believe they have a fix for it, and that they acknowledge the problem. But please do your due diligence on that aspect of the RAV4 hybrid. Most everyone in California won’t see this problem. Because conditions aren’t usually there for it to appear. But in Canada, it may pop up. | |||||

| I’d go with either a RAV4 or CR-V hybrid. The CR-V hybrid is actually an interesting technology, because it runs on the electric motor until you hit about 45 mph, then the ICE takes over (or used in combo with the motor). The RAV4 both the ICE and the electric motor can propel the vehicle at almost any speed. | |||||

| Hello Scotty and everyone; I'm planning on buying a Toyota RAV4. I travel about across state due to friends and family almost weektraly or bi-weekly doing 300+ miles travel round trip. I'm debating on RAV4 standard year 2018-2020 or RAV4 hybrid 2018-2020. I would like to hear everyone's opinion on this. I searched related topics here but I'm not sure my question was fully answer. | |||||

| ... the RAV4. Both these vehicles have been upsized over the years. IMHO, the current RAV4 is almost the same size as a first generation Highlander. The current Highlander is now a three row instead of two row. The original RAV4 dwarfs the current generation RAV4. I think you get a good bang for your buck with the current RAV4. And the criticism about hybrid from others is correct. If you plan to keep your car for 10+ years, 150,000+ miles, it may be worth the hybrid in the long run. If you plan to only drive it for 5 years and less than 100,000 miles ... | |||||

| > "Where I live, gasoline costs $7.95/gal bringing the RAV4 hybrid savings to almost $9k per decade." On the topic of RAV4 viability in places with high gas prices: - In Canada it seems to does make sense to get the RAV4 hybrid over the RAV4.-But, with such high gas prices, since the RAV4 hybrid still doesn't offer greater seating capacity, the interior isn't that spacious, and the boot is pretty small - Wouldn't it make sense to get a more efficient compact/sub-compact?-As I see it, Outside of the US, where gas costs fortunes, the RAV4 hybrid hardly m ... | |||||

| Here is my perspective: If you don't NEED a truck, don't get one. I assume you are considering it because its "cool" I would go for the RAV4 1.

| Since I drive for Uber, I put a lot of miles on my 2014 RAV4. I purchased the car with 77,000 miles on it and now three years later I have 220,000 miles on it. It has the standard 4 cylinder engine with a 6 spreed automatic. Ever since I have owned it, the engine has a slight vibration just after I accelerate above 20MPH. The slight vibration only lasts for a few seconds and then just normal engine noise. I recently had a rider in my car who marveled at how well my car handled with 220k miles on it. He told me to expect to have transmission problems around 2 ... | |||||

| Out of those two, I’d recommend the Honda CR-V. But really, if you want to buy a hybrid, get the RAV4 hybrid. If you want the longest life out of a vehicle, do not buy hybrid anything. The Korean vehicles are junk. | |||||
