2002 Toyota Rav4 Base Sport Utility 4-door -- Ev on 2040-cars
Knightsen, California, United States
Up for sale is my first generation Toyota Rav4! Only a few left in the whole world! It is a 2002 with only 97850 miles on it. It currently gets about 57 miles in between charges. Which is still double the range of some other brand new EVs on the market today. The Rav4 charges with 240v charger that comes with it. It lives in California with my mother. She drives it 2-3 times a week to work (she is a school teacher) to keep the battery alive. I bought for myself but to the heath problems with my girlfriend, plans change. The rav4 would be considered excellent condition and other than one golf ball sized dent on the front driver side fender. Which can be removed using PDR Paintless Dent Removal costing around $50-100. I replaced the antenna in November. And tires and brakes seem to be in decent condition. I have put seat covers and cheap floor mats in the car to preserve its beauty while mom drives it. I was going to put a new battery pack in the car when the range got lower to the 25-30 mile range. Brand new the 2002 Rav4 EV got 100-120 mile range, which I think could be achieved using newer battery technology like optima batteries or rebuilding the original batteries. The cost would be around $5000. Which in my option is well worth it for clean, powerful, reliable transportation. Shipping can be arranged anywhere! As much as I do want to sell it I don't and I will never get the chance to own one again. Very sad

Construction of Lexus' first US assembly line underway
Thu, 09 Jan 2014The ES is Lexus' top-selling sedan, but the Japanese luxury marque has never manufactured it outside of Japan. In fact, Lexus has never made any cars in the United States, one of its largest markets worldwide. But that's about to change.
Yesterday, construction began in Georgetown, Kentucky, on the first Lexus assembly line in America, the first concrete (or steel) step in a $360-million expansion of Toyota's plant in the Bluegrass state that will create 750 new jobs. The expansion was announced last April by chief executive Akio Toyoda at the New York Auto Show.
Once the new assembly line gets online in the fall of next year, Toyota plans on building some 50,000 units of the ES each year. Lexus sold a record 72,581 examples of the ES in the United States last year - 30 percent more than the previous year - so Lexus will either have to import some more from overseas or leave some buyers disappointed.
European car sales up 8% in February
Sat, 22 Mar 2014Three weeks ago an analyst increased projections for European car sales this year, expecting them to climb three percent compared to last year instead of 2.7 percent. That number is a postive sign after years of hard times but it turns out February was especially good, overall European sales climbing eight percent on a wave of southern European recovery and discounts - and this comes after five months of gains including January's 7.2-percent jump over the year before.
The only country of Europe's five largest markets to post a decline was France, just as it did in January, Germany, the UK and Italy posting solid double-digit numbers, Spain rocking the charts with an 18-percent increase because of a government program to encourage trade-ins.
The only brand to miss the wave was Volkswagen, dropping 0.8 percent as it watched the double-digit growth at sister brands Audi, Seat and Skoda lift the Volkswagen Group sales up by seven-percent. Peugeot overcame flat sales at Citroën to improve the group by 3.5 percent, BMW and the Mercedes-Benz/Smart combo rose by four percent, the Fiat group jumped 5.8 percent, Ford was up 11 percent, the Renault Group 11.5 percent, General Motors 12 percent and the Toyota clan by 14 percent.
Couple survives 50-foot fall from overpass in Toyota
Tue, 11 Feb 2014It doesn't matter the make or model - modern vehicles are technological miracles when it comes to occupant protection. Take this story out of New York City, which involved two people going for a very wild ride in a Toyota Matrix.
Carlos and Raquel Broadbelt were on the Cross Bronx Expressway overpass when they hit a patch of ice while dodging a pothole, sending them hurtling into a guardrail and over the side of the overpass. They fell 50 feet onto the road below. Despite the catastrophic accident - and the mangled Toyota - both driver and passenger walked away. The couple spent a night in the hospital just for observation.
The Broadbelts' miraculous survival has even surprised doctors, who told Dave Carlin from CBS New York they'd never seen an accident like it. Take a look below for the full news report from CBS New York.
