2007 Toyota RAV4 Road Test Ratings

Fuel Economy

21 - 23 mpg

Overall

A powerful V6 engine, good ride comfort and Toyota's high-standards for fit and finish earn the all-new RAV 4 an above average rating.

Dynamics

Tons of power - almost two much in V6 FWD version, as torque steer is plentiful. The electric power steering is numb.

Comfort

Excellent ride comfort, but the driving position and seats don't fit everyone.

Function

Basic ergonomics are good, but the rear door swing the wrong way, and the optional third row seat is tiny.

Design/Build Quality

Modern styling manages to look fresh. Typical good fit and finish execution throughout.

High Performer Engine is class-leading in power.

Daily Commuter Steers and handles like a car. Thoughtful and roomy cabin design.

Family Friendly Third row seat is available as an option.
