4th: Toyota RAV4, $2,196
The other original “cute ute,” the RAV4 is now a vehicle that can carry seven passengers or haul a lot of cargo. The consensus is the new exterior styling is a big improvement. You can get a V-6, but the miserly version comes with a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine, front-wheel drive and four-speed automatic transmission. The third row isn’t for adults, but for a family with small kids, the seating capacity is there.
