A 45kW motor with 125 pound-feet of torque also contributes, helping this compact hybrid feel spritely despite its compact powertrain.

The Vehicle Stability Control has helped dial out understeer and oversteer, while Traction Control makes it easy to maintain grip on a variety of surfaces, like mud, snow, or wet roads. Electronic Brakeforce Distribution sends the needed amount of brake force to the wheels that need it most, so you get a surefooted braking experience.

The all-new Toyota RAV4 is one of the original leaders of the crossover revolution. However, if you want a sedan with a little more space and a lot more thrills, check out the new Toyota Camry. It will change the way you think about the family sedan, thanks to more power and dynamic handling than ever before.
