This caught my eye on the way in today. That would be a Tesla in Toyota clothing, right? The vanity plate makes me think this is probably not a standard issue anything.

Happy to get some input on the name fusion/butchery. Go crazy, internetthingy!

The Rav4 EV is indeed a joint venture between Tesla and Toyota.

The RAV4 EV was developed with Tesla and has a Tesla powertrain.

Unfortunately, I’ve seen several lemon buybacks of these. They aren’t as reliable as regular Toyotas, from what I’ve read online. And, they’re only sold California, I believe.

I saw the RAV4EV long before Tesla was around. is this joint venture a new(er) thing?

Carmax sells these at a reasonable price (mid $30ks). If you want one, that is...

Every time I see one of these it’s in white.

IT LOOKS GREAT IN GRAY.

I would buy one for the fun of it. It should be a pretty competent DD.

How about the electrify a BRZ? Then we could have a TesYoBaru BRZe.

Hey, that’s my car! The license plate is intended to mean “Powered By Tesla” because, as someone pointed out, the drivetrain is Tesla designed/built.
