2024 Toyota RAV4 Edge Hybrid review
The flagship RAV4 Hybrid looks tough and drives well. While it's still a segment benchmark, there's increasingly tough competition awheel.

2024 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid review
The RAV4 Hybrid is still the family SUV benchmark if you only need five seats and insist upon hybrid power – but is it worth the wait?

2022 Toyota RAV4 XSE Hybrid review
The RAV4 XSE might be a new variant but it has a familiar flavour. With hybrid power and plenty of standard kit, it should help offset demand for the Cruiser.

2022 Toyota RAV4 Cruiser Hybrid review
If there’s a ‘just right’ in Toyota’s bourgeoning RAV4 line-up, the latest front-driven Cruiser Hybrid makes a strong claim to occupy it.

2021 Toyota RAV4 GX review
The entry-level Toyota RAV4 GX petrol is a fundamentally sound family SUV, but the hybrid drivetrain is without doubt the better option.

Other SUV to consider
There's a glut of rivals for the RAV4 but some of the more popular options in the segment include the Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage, Mazda CX-5, Mitsubishi Outlander and Nissan X-Trail.
The Outlander and X-Trail are the only members of this group to offer the option of a (small) third row. The former was recently redesigned, and a new version of the latter is launching later in 2022 to replace the rather dated current X-Trail. There's no hybrid Outlander, though Mitsubishi is introducing a redesigned plug-in hybrid.
The Tucson and Sportage have also been recently redesigned, though there's no sign yet of the hybrid models available overseas. They offer cabins similarly spacious to that of the RAV4, all of which are roomier than the CX-5 which counters by being among the more engaging vehicles in this segment to drive.
