Is the 2025 Toyota RAV4 Hybrid a Good SUV?
"We know we're not alone in believing the RAV4 Hybrid to be the current RAV4's best self. It's notably quicker than the standard version, in addition to being far more fuel-efficient, and it can even tow 250 extra pounds of stuff. Throw in generous cargo capacity and excellent resale value and it's clear why many SUV shoppers are still lining up for this machine, even if its standard 8-inch touchscreen poking out of the dash is clearly dated by today's standards. The engine does drone during spirited acceleration, but if you're planning to buy and hold, that's a small price to pay for the RAV4 Hybrid's proven long-term reliability."—Ranked #1 out of 11 Compact Hybrid SUVs
