Owning a Hybrid has always interested me but we drive mostly on rural highways. Our speed is usually 98 kph about 60 mph or so. I have heard that Hybrids don't offer the fuel savings on the highway to make them worth while. How would the Hybrid Rav do at this speed. Would it be worth the extra initial cost?
Thanks

Don't fall into the common trap of assuming that "saving gas/money" is the main advantage of the HV models. Its not, and it'll never justify the purchase. Yes you'll save some gas, but how much depends on MANY variables. The hybrid system is more reliable / lasts longer and carries a very generous warranty. The list of advantages goes on: far less emissions, lots of sexy technology to play with, less upkeep, an effective AWD system that doesn't consume gas, and on and on.
