4. Toyota’s RAV4 is No Wannabe-SUV (2016)

"The RAV4 is the complete package, and all about balance: It’s not too hard, not too soft, not too big, not too small, not too flashy, not too plain. It’s not too masculine or feminine either and it’s super functional."

The RAV4 paid us a visit in Hermanus to join us in our daily slog of school- and work life.

 

5. The RAV4 in Sutherland and the Tankwa Karoo: Lost in space (2017)

"The RAV4 doesn't pretend to be at all sporty. Rather, it embraces its role as a spacious, practical and refined family vehicle. It doesn't pretend to be a serious off-roader either, yet it managed to soak up the worst roads the Karoo could throw at it without complaint, rattle or squeak", reports Martin Pretorius on his trans-Karoo roadtrip in the RAV4.

 

Toyota has added a few upgrades to the current-generation RAV4 just this month. These include:

  • A leather steering wheel and shift-lever/steering wheel coverings in the GX-Grade.
  • Safety enhancements, such as adaptive cruise control that now works at all speeds (VX-variants). The lane keeping system now comprises Toyota's lane trace control as well.
  • Smartphone integration with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto in all models from the 6th of April 2020.
