The third-generation RAV4 has loads of style, and it always looks solid and pleasant on the eye from any position you care to gaze at the vehicle from. The nose is nicely sculptured and the headlights are wide-eyed and purposeful. A high waistline gives the RAV4 a robust and muscley look that is accentuated with its wide 17 inch wheels and flared wheel arches.
The Rav4 is a vehicle that not only looks tough; it has has the credentials to tackle slippery conditions and plenty of off-roading jaunts. The electronically controlled AWD system is designed to help prevent the vehicle slipping sideways during steep off-road hill descents. It provides “feet off” driving down a steep incline. The latest AWD system was developed by Toyota to provide enhanced control and improved fuel economy. Toyota Active AWD is a compact system that controls torque distribution between the front and rear axles. It achieves this by using a newly developed electromagnetic coupling in the rear differential housing. The electronically controlled Active AWD system saves engine power and fuel by only driving the front wheels.

First of all its called RAV4
Toyota RAV4
Its a nice economical car.
It has sophisticated all wheel drive drivline.
It comes in different models
One is like a Coupe SUV and a sedan style 5 door .
Coupe is a bit small in size as compared to Sedan
Seating capacity depends on what model you chose.
If you go for coupe I guess its easy for a girl to park but you may drive more than 3 people at a time in that case you definitely need 5 door car :)
VVT-i engine is good and they are pretty quick

The current Toyota RAV4 comes in Base, Sport and Limited trims, with either a four-cylinder or a V6 engine, and either front-wheel drive or an on-road-biased all-wheel-drive system. Automatic transmissions come standard (a four-speed unit for the four-cylinder, a five-speed auto for the V6). Today's RAV4 is close to Toyota's midsize Highlander in length and actually has a more powerful V6. Yet thanks to its more narrow width and lighter weight, it's easier to park and achieves superior fuel economy when comparably equipped.
The 179-horsepower, 2.5-liter four-cylinder provides surprisingly good acceleration and excellent fuel economy. With 269 hp, a RAV4 equipped with the available 3.5-liter V6 is quite fast and the most fuel-efficient six-cylinder SUV in its class. The steering is light and the brakes are strong, making the RAV4 feel effortless to drive. Maximum towing capacity for the V6 is a respectable 3,500 pounds.
Even in Base trim, the Toyota RAV4 is well equipped with power accessories, cruise control and a full suite of safety features, including stability control. Sport trim brings exterior enhancements, a sport-tuned suspension and bigger wheels. The Limited model adds numerous luxury features.
The interior has Toyota's typical ergonomic flair, placing controls and switches right where one expects to find them. Among the RAV4's clever features are flat-folding split second-row seats that slide both fore and aft up to 6.5 inches and recline for added comfort. The backlit, white-on-black gauges and stellar assembly quality contribute to the high-quality feel of the interior.
In terms of the space, the RAV4 is cavernous, boasting more cargo room than some midsize SUVs. With its large swing-out tailgate (which can now be had with or without the mounted spare tire) and a low floor, loading bulky items into the RAV is quite easy. Optional third-row seats that fold flat into the trunk take up some of that cargo room, but at least provide a place for an extra set of children. It's uninhabitable for adults.
