The performance this powertrain delivers is perfectly fine unladen, the RAV4 has no trouble getting up to highway speed. The engine is backed by an eight-speed automatic transmission that is, for the most part, quick-witted and smooth, though occasionally gearchanges can feel a bit uneven. Nestled between this SUV's front fenders is a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter four-cylinder that delivers a reasonable 203 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. The RAV4 is propelled by a familiar drivetrain, one used to great advantage throughout Toyota's automotive empire. That's more space than you get in a CX-5 or Ford Escape, but those scores do fall slightly behind the capacious CR-V. This example's wide, power-opening hatch makes it a snap to access the cargo hold, which provides 37.5 cubic-feet of storage space behind the rear backrests or 69.8 cubes with them folded down. This Toyota's four-cylinder engine works surprisingly well, even if it's a bit noisy while working.
