Which has more space, the Harrier or the RAV4?

RAV4 has more space. RAV4 exterior: Although the RAV4 has off-road capabilities, it is designed with practicality in mind, so the body shape doesn't feel as rugged as traditional off-road vehicles. The RAV4's exterior combines the streamlined design of a van with the versatile sporty look of an SUV, making it a model where form follows function. Door section: As a compact SUV, the front doors are not very large, but the opening angle is decent, making it convenient for passengers to get in and out. The rear doors are also relatively small, with an opening angle of about 60 degrees, making entry and exit somewhat average. The trunk door features a rare side-opening design, with three-angle door stoppers to secure the door. In terms of practicality, it has its own strengths compared to the more common top-opening design.
Actually, I've driven both cars several times. The Harrier looks more elongated and streamlined, while the RAV4 appears more boxy. Honestly, sitting in the back seat, the RAV4 clearly offers more headroom, with an extra fist's width of knee space. The cargo area is also significantly deeper in the RAV4—last time I transported flower pots for my dad, stacking three layers didn't even touch the rear window. The Harrier's sloping roofline is stylish, but it does sacrifice rear headroom; my 180cm-tall cousin sat upright and his hair brushed against the ceiling. It was most noticeable when loading camping gear—the RAV4 easily fit the tent with the tailgate closed, while the Harrier had to fold down the second-row seats to make it work.
