Great size, comfortable seating position. Gauges are clear and easy to read. Very versatile storage. Has a storage bay under floor on trunk. 2nd row seats fold flat to floor, and has tilt, forward and back adjustments. actually 1 or 2 MPG less than Camry sedan. Transmission though smooth, isn't as impressive as V-6, which is 5-speed auto and 1 mpg worse gas mileage.

The Toyota RAV 4 is an excellent car to move around with your family. I never had any mechanical problem and the maintenance is very easy and cheap. I highly recommend this car for families and also children going to school.

The Rav4 is everything I want in a vehicle. It drives like a sporty car, has a revvy but fuel efficient 2.4L 4cyl that has reasonable amount of torque, lots of room, classy interior( My came with wood grain which makes it look and feel luxurious)lots of neat safety and comfort features, cheap to own and operate, and good looking( I got mine in nautical blue) I wish I would have got the alloy wheels instead of hubcaps though.

Good gas mileage (4 cyl.). Decent power. Decent handling. Enough room for 2 adults 2 kids (baby seats). Trunk space is adequate. Cruise control is too choppy. Too small for 3 adults 2 kids, no 3rd row seats in ours. No aux in on stereo. Several recalls issued so far on this model. Tire pressure sensors failed. Overall it has been ok but the Highlander is a huge upgrade for us.
