2008 Rav4 w/V6 engine

Excellent power, no issues, very reliable. Would drive it anywhere. Only shortcoming is the illumination of the clock and radio. Hard to read in daylight.

Reliable

Very dependable. Handles great. Does not ride like a Lexus, but good ride for a SUV. I would judge the vehicle as a mid-size SUV.

Sporty Do-All

This car is exactly what I needed. I was searching for a reliable small SUV for commuting, transporting my toddler & getting up into the mountains for outdoor outings. Love it! The limited edition is worth it for the leather interior & the upgraded JBL sound system is surprisingly good. The V6 edition is a must if you like extra power & this engine package does not disappoint for acceleration & zipping through traffic. I will enjoy this car for years & will probably be buying another.

My 3rd Toyota, Not my last

I love the sportiness of my Rav4. It has a V6 with great pickup. Lots of room and my dogs love it too! It could use a few more cupholders!
