  1. Outlander

    Highs: Powertrain, handling, reliability.

    Lows: Ride, road noise, fit and finish, radio controls with optional navigation.

    The Outlander is fairly competitive in its class. Its 220-hp, 3.0-liter V6 provides a lot of punch and is smooth and refined. A four-cylinder engine mated to a CVT is new for 2008 and works well. The V6 model features a slick six-speed automatic transmission. Handling is fairly agile, with restrained body lean and quick, well-weighted steering. It is also secure and capable at its handling limits, due in part to its standard electronic stability control. The ride is fairly stiff and road noise is pronounced. Interior fit and finish is a bit disappointing. The third-row seat is mainly meant for kids. First-year reliability has been outstanding.

    the Toyota Rav4's 4 cyl engine is underpowered.

    the optional V6 pushes the price sky high.

    the rear mounted spare tire and side opening rear

    door are poorly designed, if bumped from behind the rear

    glass shatters.

    also look at the Honda Cr-V and for a low cost alternative the Kia Rondo.
