It looks like the RAV4 does now indeed pass the moose test, get a 5 star NHTSA rating and is now on the IIHS's Top Safety Pick+ list, at least the hybrid does.
I wonder if it's worth the 3mph highway improvement with the RAV4 hybrid over the non-hybrid as I seem to do a lot more highway driving and don't have long enough town distances to really take advantage of the hybrid system on the Avalon.
Too bad the RAV4 Prime is over $10,000 more than the standard hybrid.
