2007 Toyota RAV4 SLT 25

On the outside, this latest RAV4 is fresh, less flashy, with fewer styling gimmicks than previous models. The same can't be said for the interior, where some of the change appears to have been for the sake of change alone. The front seats are supportive but not overly firm. The second-row seats are less padded than the front seats, without bolsters. It's no surprise, really, seeing as how the seat has to fit three people in a pinch. Acceleration is impressive. The brake pedal feels firm, and depending on the engine, response to the gas pedal is prompt or borderline overwhelming. Steering response is confident. Fresh from a complete redesign, the 2007 Toyota RAV4 adds more standard safety features. It has more power, more room and more seats than models built before 2006.
