2021 Toyota RAV4 Seat Room and Comfort: Pros | ||
Year | Body/Powertrain | Comment |
2020 | 4dr SUV 176-horsepower 2.5L I4 Hybrid 6-speed shiftable CVT AWD |
Seats are comfortable but the cockpit seems designed to enfold you and while there is plenty of dose it doesn't feel roomy. The console is over large. see full Toyota RAV4 review |
