    Finally, the Gen 6 RAV4 PHEV, the PHEV version of Toyota’s first take on a software-defined vehicle (SDV), will start hitting dealer lots next month, in April. It is also the first Toyota to feature TSS 4.0, which will be further upgradeable through over-the-air software updates.

    It is over $3,000 cheaper than the Gen 5 RAV4 PHEV. It looks like Toyota has finally figured out how to make EV batteries that aren't astronomically expensive.
