Hello
just bought an Rav4 2008 Base. I made a research about the models of the Rav4 200. all the models i got had 2.1 or 2.4 engine.
could someone guide me to the reason?
Different engines for different countries and markets. In North America, the only two engines available were the 2.4l four-cylinder and the 3.5l V-6. The 2.4l was defective and a known oil guzzler from 2006-2008.
I've never heard of a 1.9l Toyota engine until now.
Yes, most countries have a road tax based in part on engine displacement, with a threshold at 2.0L for petrol engines. I don’t know what the threshold is for diesel.
Are you sure it is a 1.9?
In the Netherlands there were only 2 engines available at that time a 2.0 petrol and a 2.2 diesel.
This was for a large part the same in Europe.
