If you are in the market for a pre-owned SUV, chances are you have a used Toyota RAV4 or a used Hyundai Tucson on your list. Here, we look at each pre-owned SUV option to see how it compares in terms of versatility, performance, reliability, dependability, and even efficiency.

The first element that we want to look at here is the fuel economy. We know that compact SUVs are popular mostly because of their interior space and versatility, and that is the main reason why you were interested in a used compact sport utility vehicle in the first place, but at the same time with the rising cost of fuel you don't want to have to spend more than you should on gas. In this area, a pre-owned Toyota RAV4 has the advantage with an average fuel consumption rating of 9.2 L per 100 km in the city, and 7.2 per 100 km on the highway. On the other hand, a pre-owned Hyundai Tucson will average 10.8 L per 100 km in the city, and 9.2 L per 100 km on the highway.

We buy a sport utility vehicle for versatility first and foremost. At least, that would be the case with most buyers. In other words, although the fuel economy and the performance of the Toyota RAV4 stands the comparison very well with the Hyundai Tucson, at the end of the day you are probably wondering which of these two pre-owned SUVs offers the most cargo space. The answer to that question would be the RAV4 which offers 1,059 L of cargo space behind the rear seats, and 1,977 L of cargo space total. The Hyundai Tucson, on the other hand, offers 878 L of cargo space, and 1,753 L total. The Toyota RAV4 is also very impressive in terms of rear legroom and overall interior space for your passengers.

One of the elements that really stands out when you compare a pre-owned Toyota RAV4 and a pre-owned Hyundai Tucson is just how different these compact SUVs feel on the road. While the Hyundai Tucson is comfortable and it does offer decent performance, the Toyota RAV4 really gives you an extra touch of sportiness the you will enjoy if you want to have fun driving your compact SUV every day. Moreover, buying a pre-owned Toyota RAV4 means buying a more balanced overall compact SUV. We definitely think you will agree when you take it out for a test drive.
