Toyota RAV4
Even though competition is fierce in the compact SUV segment, Toyota is still considered a major player thanks the RAV4. This vehicle stays the course with a 2.5-litre 4-cylinder and front-wheel drive included in the standard equipment, along with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Some trims get all-wheel drive, which can be locked when road conditions deteriorate. There's also a hybrid version available.
