Why a history check matters on a Toyota RAV4
The RAV4 Hybrid has wait lists exceeding 12 months in Australia, pushing second-hand prices above their original new RRP. That demand fuels fraudulent listings — verify the rego matches the VIN on the compliance plate, and use NEVDIS to confirm the kilometres are genuine. The hybrid battery has an 8-year warranty; check service history shows the dealer completed annual hybrid health-checks to keep that warranty valid.
