Hi All,
I am looking for a service manual for our newly purchased 2013 RAV-4 EV. Went to the dealer and they said "it was out of print and is no longer available". Any help is appreciated :)
 
Warning: the full-color diagrams are ~28,000px wide.

Aside from the above, there are some individual circuits' wiring diagrams -- and connector definitions -- that are supplied in SVGZ format, which can be problematic to view outside of an HTML/CSS wrapper. I have converted most of these to either PNG or PDF (and left the SVGZ versions available too).

B&W individual pages 2014 RAV4 EV wiring diagrams (ZIP of (25) PDFs)

Partial service manual stuff (ZIP, 545Mb)
Includes all wiring diagrams above.
It's a mess of junk, but if you are patient and are willing to dig, most stuff is there. Nothing like the nice online version that's all neatly hyperlinked by Snap-On. Includes service bulletins, Tech Tips, Quick Training Guides, and other fluff. Try index.html, or page through it manually.

If you're trying to un-archive the .zip of the collection, using Windows 10, and the extracting process shows, "Destination path too long" or similar, you can expand W10's 260 char path limitation by editing the Registry and enabling Long Paths.

Use 'regedit'
Search for:
KEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\FileSystem
Find the key LongPathsEnabled
Change its value from '0' to '1'
 
New ZIP of the partial service manual (ZIP, 643mb)

Changes:
09May2024: Converted the .svgz files to .png at 300 dpi instead of 96, and also replaced the grey backgrounds where I hadn't before. $17 and four hours. The original .svgz files are left intact, if someone wants to use a suitable viewing app (the transparent background makes this uncomfortable without some css wrapper or manual background manipulation)
 
Great job, was able to unzip no problem with my iMac. I can't read .snag files though, seems like they are a different format of the .png files. (i.e. 9_Taillights_and_Exterior_Lamps-3-1b.png and 9_Taillights_and_Exterior_Lamps-3-1b.snag)

Thanks again, so nice to have some service information.

The dir-indexer works well ... I can click on a html file and it bring up the page in my browser and the links work too. I am using Safari on my iMac, macOS 12.7.4 Monterey.
 
.snag files are edit/markup files (used by Snagit!) that I use/save for making custom callouts for when people ask me to identify stuff; it's not part of Toyota's offering, and in an ideal world, I'd put them somewhere else, but [shrug] it's a hobby and I'm not shooting for perfection. You can ignore them, and just view the associated file that's usually a PNG.

Yeah, I'm sometimes inconsistent with my file naming. I try, but [shrug].

When you pays Toyota your $25 for online access, you get nicer internal linking. For example, in a DTC troubleshooting guide, an internal hyperlink can take you to a sub-section or "how to take that part off first" guide, without having to manually search for it. I looked into making those links work in 2018, but about a man-week into scripts, and abandoned it as too much effort needed on my part; I'd much rather pay someone $100 for one that worked that way but ran locally without a subscription (I loathe subscriptions of all kinds) but so far nobody has made one for the EV version, only the ICE version :(

I have missed downloading some of the Repair Guides, unfortunately, and if someone buys another subscription and wants to forward downloaded pages (with all associated support files) I can add them to the ZIP, but I'm kind of tired of chasing this stuff, and . . . well, anybody with $25 can get 48 hours access if then really want.

These pages I've d/l'd let me browse a bit when I want some general info; if I find I need something I've missed, I can buy it later.
