Where each one leads
Peugeot Traveller
Ahead on none of the like-for-like measures.
Toyota RAV4
- Against cars of the same age, the Toyota RAV4 comes out better at its first MOT test (passes 9% more often than average) than the Peugeot Traveller (passes 6% less often than average).
- New Toyota RAV4 cars registered in Europe in 2022 average 112 g/km of CO₂ on the WLTP test, against 147 for the Peugeot Traveller in 2022.
Only measures that do not depend on how many cars were sold: pass and failure rates against cars of the same age, ratings, fuel use and CO₂. How we compare
