Review: 2006 Toyota RAV4
A lot is expected from the all-new Toyota RAV4. Aside from being the newest offering in the compact SUV segment, this model was responsible for popularizing the concept of the “cute-ute” way back in the 1990s. The second iteration caused an equal amount of awe with Toyota pushing the RAV4’s styling to a new direction. Compared to its perennial rival, the Honda CR-V, the RAV4 looked more advanced with its rakish design and exaggerated features be it the Mk. I or Mk. II models. Having found the right success recipe though, Toyota decided to play it safe with the Mk. III. Designers and engineers toyed around with the standards set by its predecessor—a good starting point, considering RAV4s were always handsome and always driver-oriented.
