Toyota RAV4 Hybrid Shortage Drives Six-Month Wait Times as Production Lags Demand
The 2026 Toyota RAV4 faces severe supply constraints, with some buyers waiting up to six months for delivery. This shortage stems from a shift to an all-hybrid lineup that has exceeded production capacity, exacerbated by high gas prices and reduced demand for pure electric vehicles. Toyota estimates sales may drop by 55,000 units compared to the previous year, though it has added capacity at its Kentucky plant to mitigate the issue.
