Pros Quicker than the non-hybrid RAV4, desirable infotainment features are standard, roomy cabin.
Cons Strictly average road manners, base model is spartan, top PHEV model pricing gets steep.
Pros Excellent fuel economy Smooth ride quality Plenty of space for cargo
Cons Front seats lack comfort for longer drives Mushy brake pedal feel
Pros Perky turbocharged four-cylinder, Italian roots, nicely-equipped even in base trim
Cons Snug rear seat, rivals offer more overall interior space, perhaps a little too similar to the Alfa Romeo it's based on.
Pros Very powerful for a small crossover Comfortable, controlled suspension Base model's great feature-per-dollar value
Cons R/T hybrid model's compromised cargo area Lacks practicality of other compact SUVs Hellcat V-8 probably won't fit
