Comparison Review

Comfort
The Ford Bronco Sport offers a bit more room for passengers in the back seat than the Toyota RAV4. The Ford Bronco Sport will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Toyota RAV4.

Convenience
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Ford Bronco Sport as you will with the Toyota RAV4, as they are both able to travel similar distances on a tank of gas.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). When looking only at MSRP, the Ford Bronco Sport will have less of an impact on your bank account than the Toyota RAV4.

Dimensions
The Ford Bronco Sport is a little wider than the Toyota RAV4, so getting in and out of the car in a crowded parking lot may be a little more of a squeeze. The Ford Bronco Sport is slightly shorter than the Toyota RAV4, which may make it easier to park.

Handling
The Ford Bronco Sport has the same turning radius as the Toyota RAV4, so they both maneuver the same in and out of tight spots.

Performance
When considering towing capacity, the Ford Bronco Sport is clearly the choice over the Toyota RAV4 for pulling heavy loads. The Ford Bronco Sport has a little less horsepower than the Toyota RAV4.

Powertrain
With somewhat higher torque, the Ford Bronco Sport transmits power to its wheels a bit more effectively than the Toyota RAV4.

Utility
In terms of seating, you'll be able to fit about the same number of people in both the Ford Bronco Sport and the Toyota RAV4. The Ford Bronco Sport has less cargo space than the Toyota RAV4, which is okay if you don't need to move a lot in one trip.
