Many of the former GM EV1-club members jumped ship (switched) to the that production EV when their EV1 was ripped away from them to be unnecessarily destroyed by GM (see the movie, Who killed the ... WKTEC https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Who_Killed_the_Electric_Car%3F https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nsJAlrYjGz8 ). The most important issues I would have with owning this nice EV: - pack replacement (see the source link below) - need to carry with you your large external inductive charger (do not buy the RAV4-EV_gen1 without its external charger - this EV4sale the charger is included). -You would need to have a conversion adaptor to pull j1772 power from today's charging standard, to power the old inductive (tal 2000) charger, to recharge the EV at a 6kW rate. Else you can not charge at public EVSE. - range will vary as these EV's packs will be quite used/tired. - the EV is a factory-converted from a RAV4-ice, so the EV is not as efficient as a purpose-built EV. You will be pushing air resistance at highway speeds, so range will be less at 55+ speeds. When its NiMHi battery pack was new, it only had a 75+ mile range at 55mph, 90mi if you could stay at 35mph. The perks of owning this older EV over getting an older used Leaf EV, would be bragging-rights of driving a perfectly good, classic EV that could have, and should have gone main stream if it weren't for automaker's sabotage efforts of the EV-cause / CARB ZEV mandate way back in the 2000s. By keeping this EV up and running on public roads, you are a thorn in Toyota's reputation.
