If you're looking for a spacious vehicle that's suited for getting around the urban areas of Cincinnati, Newport, and Covington, you need a compact SUV. At Fuller Ford, we want to show how the Ford EcoSport and Toyota RAV4 compare against one another.
Read our Ford EcoSport vs. Toyota RAV4 comparison to learn about the fuel economy and compact design that define these vehicles.
Whether you're taking on the daily commute or planning a night out on the town, it's important to have an SUV that can go the distance. That's why many vehicles are designed with a high city MPG, and these two SUVs are no exception.
Inside the Toyota RAV4 you'll find a standard 2.5L 4-cylinder engine. This powertrain provides an EPA-estimated 26 city MPG*, allowing for some reliable fuel conservation when moving through city streets.
If you want to save even more fuel while on your commute, the Ford EcoSport has you covered. You'll find a standard 1.0L EcoBoost® engine inside this vehicle with an EPA-estimated 27 city MPG that will keep you going just a bit farther than the RAV4. Drivers who do a lot of traveling in the city will benefit from driving the EcoSport.

Both SUVs offer a sturdy build that's designed to be compact for easy adventuring. However, offering a small body doesn't just improve handling, it's important for parking and navigating traffic as well.
The Toyota RAV4 is designed with a length of 180.9 inches for a decent fit when traveling through traffic. You'll be able to traverse the city with relative ease in this compact SUV.
The Ford EcoSport, on the other hand, provides a nimbler performance with a more compact design. This vehicle is designed with a length of 161.3 inches, so parking in a tight spot and maneuvering through narrow streets or around a sharp corner will be a breeze. Navigating in tight areas is simple inside this compact SUV.
You'll find a wealth of convenient technology inside these SUVs. Enjoy an available blind spot information system inside both vehicles. This technology emits a light on your side mirror to warn when a vehicle is within your blind spot, so you'll have more peace of mind while cruising down the highway.
Both vehicles offer the additional confidence of automatic high beams, switching between high and low beams on their own. That means you'll have greater visibility while still being a courteous driver!
If you're looking to stay connected, both the Ford EcoSport and the Toyota RAV4 offer available Apple CarPlayâ„¢ and Android Autoâ„¢ compatibility to keep you connected to your favorite apps and music.
