Looking at a 2021 RAV4 Prime XSE, and about to buy. One thing bothers me: hybrid 12V batteries are pretty notorious for depleting quickly if you use accessories (radio, 120V outlet in cargo area, etc.) if the car is not being driven, or is not on in Ready mode when parked.
The dealership is telling me: "With the RAV4 Prime, you don't have to worry about that -- you can just park the car, use accessories all you want, and the ICE engine will automatically kick in to recharge the 12V as needed to avoid depletion. (And without having to turn the vehicle on to Ready mode.)"
Anyone know if that is true or false?
