My wife and I were torn between the Santa Fe Sport 2.0T and the CRV until we test drove the new RAV4. The handling and the 6-speed transmission in the RAV4 blew away the CRV and the handling edged out the straight line acceleration of the turbo Santa Fe. We ended up buying the limited because it was a good balance of power, handling, space and fuel efficiency. The only downside was the ride on the 18" wheels for the limited. We are on 17" snow tires anyway for 6 months of the year in Ontario.

I get the same mpg in my 2010 V6. It's AWD and it has 18" Run flat tires. I have no spare tire and I have a rear view camera from the factory. My car can tow 3500lbs which can be a full sized pop-up camper, 3100lbs, with room to spare. I can do 0-60 around 6.1-6.3 seconds and can park almost anywhere and my rear seats recline and slide. They also lie flat too. 2013 RAV looks nice but I like mine just as good. I don't see much improvement for 2013 and the side swing door made it unique.

I have a V6 2007 rav and i test drove my friend's i4 2012 rav and it was night and day. the v6 is so much quieter and you don't compromise on fuel. And you're right, I got the v6 coz i can overtake effortlessly on the highway and also i can tow anything! apparantly only 15% or less people were buying v6 model in the past 3 years. But i think they really want to push the Highlander to be the ultimate family/vacation suv.

Just as an FYI Motorweek, the EPA tests all non-PZEV vehicles with ethanol free 93 Octane gasoline and is what the EPA numbers are based off. The rating is not based off of regular grade gasoline. PZEV vehicles are tested with ethanol free 91 octane.

What year of what? The RAV4? Or the GMC Terrain?? because i'm talking about this gen of RAV4 and the Current gen GMC terrain. I've seen somebody driven this RAV4 and it looks exactly like the GMC Terrain from the back.

apparently only 15% of people were buying the V6 the last 3 years. so they went from 2.4 i4 to 2.5 i4 in 2009. but now they added 6 speed transmission to it...better fuel economy on the i4. i have a v6 and it's unreal. I tried the old i4 and it was laggy. Plus the previous generation, you didn't compromise fuel economy for hp. i think they should have kept the V6 too.

I'm sorry, but some of us are will to spend a little more for gas, to get effortless power. Also i would like to be able to tow something. So yes, i do believe that the availability of a V-6 would be "smart".

Will I trade for one some day. Nope. I will hunt for one with V6. I have the upgraded radiator and tranny cooler, hence the 3500lb tow capacity it came with. I know the options are similar, but mine also has more ground clearance and has a slightly tougher look without losing style. I really like my 2010. I'm gonna do a walk around review of it in a few days so if you're interested in it, keep a check on my channel.

How did the RAV not even make the 2012 crossover comparison video and then suddenly go on to beat the Honda, which WON the comparison video? Makes no sense to me. Did Toyota pay to win?

It is a better looking rav4 than the last model. But it has become too big. When they came to the US in 1995 the size was perfect. All the way to the early 2000's. Honda has the new HRV because the CRV became too big and left its original purpose. The Rav4 has left its original purpose too and now a compact SUV niche is vacant.

The CRV has grown less than four inches in length since it was introduced. That's nothing.
