Toyota RAV4 2006: It has proactive automatic four-wheel drive and acts as front-wheel drive under normal conditions.

| Ground clearance: | 213 mm (8.4 inches) | 180 mm (7.1 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Mazda Tribute can perform better on bad roads - it can go over higher obstacles and bumps. At the same time, the higher ground clearance can reduce stability and handling on paved roads, especially at higher speeds. Note, however, that this Mazda Tribute version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. Choose from two 4x4 versions of Mazda Tribute 2008 if off-road driveability is important to you. | |||
