Reported at 1,000 miles, November 2019

Toyota advertises the 2020 rav4 hybrids are equipped with 14.5 gallon fuel tanks, the hybrid allegedly should get 41 miles per gallon for city driving, 38 mpg for highway driving and a combined 40 mpg. This should approximately provide a range of 580 miles on a tank of gas. However, my rav4 hybrid cannot reach that range because when refueling, the gas pump nozzle automatically shuts off before the tank is close to being full.

Reported at 300 miles, February 2020
