If you’re the type who wants worry-free car care in a common-sense design, the 2017 Toyota RAV4 delivers both in spades. With trims ranging from basic to luxurious, the RAV4 offers everything compact-crossover-SUV shoppers need in an attractive package at an attractive price.
If you need your compact SUV to go off-road, be really fast or tow a trailer, you might be better off with a Subaru Forester XT or Jeep Cherokee V6. The Mazda CX-5 offers better handling than the RAV4, while the Nissan Rogue offers the option of a 3rd-row seat.
