The Toyota RAV4

The Subaru Forester

The compact SUV market is rapidly growing, with exciting models and features being introduced frequently. Two popular models in this category are the Toyota RAV4 and the Subaru Forester. These sleek SUVs share some similarities but have unique features that set them apart. Uncover what differentiates the RAV4 from its competition below.

Technology and Safety
Technology is sophisticated in the Toyota RAV4, with innovative features and crisp graphics leading the way. The SUV hosts a user-friendly interface with a standard 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system that supports Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The RAV4 features modern amenities, including a 360-degree camera system, wireless phone charging, and a nine-speaker JBL audio system. Bloomsburg drivers can also expect an advanced driver assistance suite, including automatic emergency braking and lane departure warning.
The Subaru Forester hosts a standard 6.5-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto capabilities. There's a user-friendly interface, but the screen is smaller than the RAV4's, a noticeable drawback. The Forester also features the Subaru Eyesight safety suite that comes standard on all models, which includes:
- Adaptive Cruise Control
- Automatic Emergency Braking
- Lane Departure and Sway Warning
While the Eyesight Safety Suite is great, it still falls short of the RAV4's sophistication, making the Toyota a better choice for Bloomsburg drivers wanting more impactful technology.
Trim Levels
Regarding trim levels, the RAV4 offers nine levels that cater to different budgets and personalization preferences. It ranges from the standard LE to the luxurious Limited models that offer impressive features, such as ventilated seats, an 11-speaker JBL audio system, and heated rear seats. The Hybrid RAV4 also has five trims, an excellent option for driving through Williamsport while prioritizing fuel efficiency.
In comparison, the Forester comes in six trims, ranging from the base model to the Premium, Sport, Limited, Touring, and new Wilderness trim. While the Forester Wilderness is designed for off-road enthusiasts, the RAV4 provides more options for buyers.
Moreover, the RAV4 has various features unavailable in the Forester, such as a panoramic sunroof, a hands-free power liftgate, and a digital rearview mirror. These features provide greater variety, personalization, and style to drivers who desire a more luxurious feel.
