Next year at this time, we will most likely be able to present you with a list of the 10 best all-wheel drive systems for all-electric vehicles. All signs are the market will be flooded with them in the coming months, and the offering should be exponentially larger than at present.

This year, we content ourselves with highlighting just the one all-wheel drive electric vehicle, and it’s the Toyota RAV4. Without a doubt, this is the vehicle of the year in the industry. Rarely has the market seen such a craze for a utility vehicle. And frankly, when the rubber hits the road, the RAV4 delivers the goods.

One downside, however, is the vehicle's failure in the infamous moose test carried out by a Swedish magazine. This avoidance manoeuvre is performed at about 70 km/h, and last year the regular version of the RAV4 failed it miserably as well; to its credit, Toyota addressed and corrected the issue. We assume they’ll react just as promptly when it comes to the Prime.
