    Starting price is US$27,135 compared to the regular RAV4 LE AWD starting price of $25,810 ($1325 difference)

    Here are the differences between the two. The $1,325 is look like a decent upgrade, especially when you include the extra features.

    Wards on Honda Accord hybrid drive

    Source: http://m.wardsauto.com/engines/honda-s-best-yet-hybrid-powertrain

    . . . Honda’s eco-friendly HEVs never have enjoyed the popularity of Toyota’s iconic Prius models.

    Even so, Honda has developed noteworthy HEV powertrains over the years, and its best to date was named to the 2017 Wards 10 Best Engines list last year.

    Propelled by Honda’s advanced second-generation Intelligent Multi-Mode Drive (i-MMD) 2-motor hybrid powertrain, the ’17 Accord Hybrid touts impressive fuel-economy of 49/47 mpg (4.8-5.0 L/100 km) city/highway. Not bad for a spacious, upscale 5-passenger sedan that’s closer to large than midsize.

    The all-aluminum, 16-valve DOHC 2.0L i-VTEC Atkinson Cycle I-4 generates 143 hp and 129 lb.-ft. (175 Nm) of torque (on regular fuel),...

    Wards Auto Cradle-to-Grave nonsense

    Source: http://wardsauto.com/ideaxchange/environmental-downside-bevs#comment-66561

    There’s a growing global movement to ban the internal combustion engine. Several cities and countries have boldly announced plans to ban piston engines in favor of electric cars. They want a shortcut to stop global warming and save the planet. And while this is a noble goal, they’re in for a nasty surprise.

    Battery-electric cars are not as environmentally clean as they’re made out to be. And piston engines are not as dirty.

    Regulators and legislators are making a fundamental mistake in mandating the technology they want, rather than the results they want. Unfortunately they’re focusing on tailpipe...
