2011 Toyota RAV4 4WD Review
Wednesday, April 13, 2011
When the RAV4 first came out back in 1996, I was in love! It was a cute, girly version of a jeep - 4wheel drive, room for 4 and you could take the top down. A four door fixed roof version was also available and that was the iconic vehicle that arguably created the compact SUV segment.

2006 Toyota RAV4 Road & Trail Test
Wednesday, February 01, 2006
Toyota's RAV4 was an innovator when it came on the scene in 1995 as a 1996 model. It was small, perky and, while appearing Jeep-like, was more conducive to inner-city commuting than scaling rocky goat trails. Young urban women loved it, and so did older folks looking for an alternative to the venerable economy car. The second-generation RAV was a little more sophisticated, and due to its bolder styling was more appealing to guys. It was efficient too; among Canada's most fuel friendly SUVs.
