TMU Clean title The 2012 Toyota RAV4 is a compact SUV that offered a blend of practicality, reliability, and available versatility with an optional third-row seat (though it was quite small and best suited for children). It was part of the third generation of the RAV4. Here's a breakdown of the 2012 Toyota RAV4: Performance: Engine Options: 2.5-liter 4-cylinder: This was the standard engine, producing 179 horsepower and 172 lb-ft of torque. It provided adequate power for everyday driving. 3.5-liter V6 (Optional): This offered a significant power upgrade with 269 horsepower and 246 lb-ft of torque, making acceleration much quicker. Transmissions: The 4-cylinder engine was paired with a 4-speed automatic transmission. Many reviewers considered this outdated for the time, impacting fuel economy and responsiveness. The V6 engine came with a 5-speed automatic transmission. Drivetrain: Front-wheel drive (FWD) was standard, and all-wheel drive (AWD) was available for both engine options. Fuel Economy: The fuel economy for the 4-cylinder FWD model was EPA-rated at around 22 mpg city / 28 mpg highway. The V6 and AWD versions had lower ratings. Handling and Ride: The RAV4 offered a comfortable ride for daily commuting. The handling was generally responsive, thanks to its taut suspension and precise electric-assist steering, though some competitors were considered more engaging to drive. Road noise could be an issue on the highway.
