2002 Rav4 EV for sale !

How many miles?

Are you selling it for the same retail price it originally sold for? Of not, what is the asking price? And for the charger?

I'd love to have a gray interior.

And I'd love to drive an EV.

But I just can't bring myself to drive an SUV. Not even a little EV one.

And I can't afford it. Not even selling my Prius to pay for it.

I paid $40,000 with a charger, in very good condition, non-smoking, no pets, 58,000 miles.

I was coy about the price because the sale had not yet gone through and I didn't want anybody usurping me. ;-)

The seller had some trouble finding a buyer. Basically I got to know my seller before buying; I wanted to know the charging/ discharging history (hard hits vs soft hits on the pack).

If you want to fetch top dollar for this car, post a scan tool readout of all the impedences on the pack. Also, nominal voltage differential would be good too.

Chargers sell used for about $2400 WITH ALL THREE BRACKET PIECES. New ones (with a bracket) are $3200 and come with a three year warranty. Brackets are over $300, so if they didn't turn in the bracket, tell them to get all three pieces of black steel.

The car is basically impossible to sell without the charger, unless you mean you have two of them and want to sell one seperately.

How are the tires? Brakes? Heated Windshield? (Chipped/ Cracked?)

A/C and Heat Pump? Has the coolant been changed at 72,500? Any accessories, like roof rack, hitch, armrest, keyless, RAV4Info?

How's the charge port fan? Does charging ever interupt because the port is too hot? Has it had a new Aux battery yet?

What's the charge history? 92,500 in 4.5 years is not too bad, about 77 miles per workday. Did they charge both ends of the commute? Did they regularly run down to flashing "low fuel" light or the turtle?

Pics would be nice, too.

My assessment? The value is in the batteries and their future projected life. 92,500 is a higher number than most RAV4 EV's on the road have. With that kind of mileage, I honestly think it should sell for about $28,000-33,000 with the charger.

Maybe Ebay is your best bet?

The market price has basically been set by eBay on these. Nate has already covered it, and as time marhces on, nobody really knows what the poop is. There is certainly no more warranty left on any part of the car at this point. It is worth whatever somebody is willing to pay for it. They've sold from $67k to $30k in the past four years. They are almost ALWAYS sold with the charger BTW. The charger came with ever one of the retail vehilces included in the price.

If the original customer paid extra for the charger, then the dealership ripped off the customer, I'm afraid.

I assume you mean 120 miles. You can do 120 miles... but you aren't gonna do it at 65mph. More like 50mph.

All of them were grey interior. Two options for the paint: white and silver. I have the paint codes in my Rav4EV FAQ if anybody needs them.

Warning here! These chargers are getting VERY hard to find, and new ones have recently doubled in price. If you buy this car, you'll definitely want the charger included!

LED lighting...

If it hasn't, it won't be running... or it'll be the first one to reach that mileage with the factory AUX battery EVER.

Nate,

And you could get a $25k credit (not deduction!) for a used vehicle? WoW!

With that I'm surprised all the Rav4 EV haven't made their way to Colorado!!

How loud is the vehicle?
