Toyota RAV4

The RAV4 is a seminal vehicle in the cars-impersonating-trucks category. With its low and expansive rear load floor, the RAV4 excels in utility but regrettably flounders when it comes to sportiness. A 2.5-liter four-cylinder mated to a six-speed automatic is the only powertrain; front-wheel drive is standard, and all-wheel drive is optional. An electric version is offered for purchase or lease in California.
