Toyota RAV4 is a compact SUV, classified as a mid-to-low range vehicle. Below are relevant details about the RAV4: 1. The exterior dimensions of the new Toyota RAV4 are 4600*1855x1680mm with a wheelbase of 2690mm. Compared to the previous generation, the most significant change in size is the 30mm increase in wheelbase, making it medium-sized when compared to Honda's CR-V and Nissan X-Trail. 2. The RAV4 is positioned as an urban SUV. As a leader in urban SUVs, the RAV4 offers high quality and performance while ensuring driving comfort and excellent off-road capability, allowing it to handle both ONROAD and OFFROAD conditions freely to meet diverse lifestyle needs.
I have always been a RAV4 owner. It is a mid-size SUV, very suitable for family use. In terms of dimensions, the vehicle is approximately 4.6 meters long with a wheelbase of around 2.7 meters, which is much more spacious than compact SUVs. The rear seats can easily accommodate child seats and shopping bags, yet it doesn't feel as bulky or difficult to park as full-size SUVs. I think classifying this vehicle in the compact SUV segment is quite reasonable. It's very agile for daily trips to the supermarket or picking up the kids, with fuel consumption controlled at 7-8 liters per 100 kilometers, which isn't too high, making it highly practical. Toyota's reliability gives me peace of mind, unlike some luxury cars that are expensive to maintain. Its common presence on the streets shows that people trust it. Overall, it strikes a good balance between space and functionality, making it an excellent choice for a family car.
