Is a Tesla Model Y really more expensive than a Toyota RAV4? In this video, I break down the TRUE 6-year, 90,000-mile cost of ownership for both — comparing four head-to-head matchups across the RAV4 Hybrid and PHEV lineups against the Model Y RWD, AWD, and Premium AWD. We dig into every number that actually leaves your bank account: purchase price, estimated sales tax, energy and fuel costs, insurance, financing, maintenance, repairs, and resale value. The results are closer than you’d expect — and in a couple of these matchups, the winner might genuinely surprise you. If you’re trying to decide between going electric or sticking with a hybrid, this is the cost breakdown to watch before you buy.
