2002 Toyota RAV4 Base Sport Utility 4-Door Description

2002 TOYOTA RAV4 EV (pre-dates TESLA)
For sale is a classic 100% electric car like the one that is shown in the movie "Who Killed The Electric Car?" Many celebrities have owned this car model, including Tom Hanks (see photo).
It is still in fully functional condition and is used daily. It has an excellent battery pack and the current range is 85 miles to 90 miles on a full charge. It even got 93 miles lately. Those miles are just down to the bottom of the green and don't include the extra 7 miles or so available in amber and red. The range depends on how you drive, temperature and road conditions.
