Toyota RAV4
The Toyota RAV4 is aimed squarely at small families who need the extra space and practicality that a compact SUV has to offer. Available in front-wheel and all-wheel drive configurations, the RAV4 features a 2.5L four-cylinder engine that develops 176 horsepower and 172 lbs.-ft. of torque. Higher trim levels get features such as navigation, the Entune smartphone interface, and advanced safety gear, but all versions of the RAV4 feature a six-speed automatic transmission and respectable fuel efficiency.
