I have had my 2020 RAV4 since new so am very familiar with the hybrid operation. When driving, the green EV indicator turns on and off regularly. However, there are also regular times when the RAV doesn't want to enter EV and the EV indicator stays off. Of course this does happen this when the hybrid battery is low, but I have noticed this problem mostly occurs when the hybrid battery is greater than 1/2 full, say 5 or 6 out of 8 segments on the battery indicator.  Even waiting at traffic lights, my RAV may sit with the combustion engine running, and hybrid battery with plenty of charge. 

Wondering if anyone else has noticed anything similar?

Have the same Cruiser AWD Hybrid. ICE runs until normal operational temp. Is achieved and then will switch off ie stop/start operation. EV indicator come on when battery has sufficient charge, comes on coasting below approx. 50k.

My former 2019 RAV4 Hybrid had the same thing. It is not a fault, I assume it has something to do with the older type of battery. My current 2023 one has the new type of battery and behaves quite differently. Specially during city trips the motor comes on far less than in my precious RAV4.
