Design Differences Between The Subaru Forester And Toyota RAV4 By Rimrock Subaru In Billings, MT

Both the Subaru Forester and the Toyota RAV4 are well designed and appealing to the eye. Each vehicle is also comfortable, with versatile space for hauling both passengers and cargo.

Performance Differences Between The Subaru Forester And Toyota RAV4 By Rimrock Subaru In Billings, MT

Performance is one of the most significant differences between the Subaru Forester and the Toyota RAV4. The numbers on paper can be a bit misleading, as the Toyota RAV4 offers a whopping 6 horsepower advantage, yet the Subaru Forester provides an extra 2 lb/ft torque advantage. So essentially the power between the two is the same, yet the Subaru Forester is delivering its power to all 4 wheels no matter which model you choose, and the Toyota RAV4 is only 2-wheel drive at the entry level. The Toyota RAV4 can be had with an all-wheel drive system, but that only adds to the price advantage that the Subaru Forester already holds. The Subaru Forester is also equipped with a Boxer engine with a flat configuration that lowers the center of gravity, providing improved handling and, when equipped with the automatic transmission, also offers a slight advantage in fuel economy.
