Real world performance is slightly different. I took my RAV4 over 100mph a couple of times, but try holding any speed above 90mph! Any slight incline will kill high speed attempts. That's something a 146hp CRV doesn't have to worry about. And for the same price, you could get the new Celica GTS that comes with a 180hp VVTL-i(Variable Valve Timing and Lift with Intelligence) engine. That's power for the price.
