Safety: 9/10
The RAV4 earns the top ive-star rating from the United
States National Highway Trajc Safety Administration
(NHTSA), as well as a Top Safety Pick from the Insurance
Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS).
Features: 8/10
It’s easy to get in and out of the RAV4, with its wide-
opening doors and not-too-wide sills. However, once
you’re inside, the door pull-handles need some work.
They’re at the front of the door, so you have very little
leverage when pulling them closed, especially on a windy
day. A hand-hold farther back on the armrest would be
very much appreciated.
Practicality: 8/10
Comfort: 8/10
The RAV4’s cabin is quiet, and the vehicle feels tight and
sturdy. The ride is more on the irm side, but it’s still
pleasant, and only the nastiest potholes make their way
up to the occupants.
Power: 8/10
Value: 7.5/10
