Toyota RAV4 2019 vs Peugeot 5008 2017
| Gearbox: | Automatic | Automatic | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Engine: | 2.0 Petrol | 1.6 Diesel | |
| Petrol engines (Toyota RAV4) are generally quieter, smoother, and better suited for short trips due to quicker warm-up times. Diesel (Peugeot 5008) engines, on the other hand, offer superior fuel efficiency and torque, making them ideal for long-distance driving and heavy loads.

| Camshaft drive: | Timing chain | Timing belt | |
| Engine chain usually needs to be replaced less often than the timing belt, but the cost of replacing the chain is usually higher. Chain motors are considered to be more reliable, but noisier and more vibration generating. | |||
Performance | |||
| Power: | 175 HP | 120 HP | |
| Torque: | 208 NM | 300 NM | |
| Acceleration 0-100 km/h: | 11 seconds | 11.9 seconds | |
|

Drive type | |||
| Wheel drive type: | 4x4 - AWD (all-wheel-drive) | Front wheel drive (FWD) | |
|
Toyota RAV4 has 4x4: It has proactive automatic four-wheel drive with Auto, Lock and Sport modes. In Auto mode, the car has front-wheel drive under normal conditions. If wheel slip is detected, torque is transferred to the rear wheels via an electronically controlled multi-plate clutch. In Sport mode, torque is transferred almost instantly between the front and rear wheels to enhance cornering performance by transferring up to 50 percent of engine power to the rear wheels. Lock mode can be activated when driving below 40 km/h (25 mph) and provides constant four-wheel drive. | |||
| Ground clearance: | 195 mm (7.7 inches) | 236 mm (9.3 inches) | |
| Because of the higher ground clearance, Peugeot 5008 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 Peugeot 5008 version does not have 4x4 drive, which is very important in poor road conditions. | |||
Engines | |||
| Average engine lifespan: | 300'000 km | 300'000 km | |
| Engine resource depends largely on regular maintenance and the quality of the oils and fuels used. | |||
| Engine production duration: | 7 years | 11 years | |
| Engine spread: | Used also on Lexus UX | Installed on at least 11 other car models, including Peugeot 308, Citroen C4, Peugeot 3008, Citroen Berlingo, Opel Grandland | |
| In general, the longer and for more car models an engine is produced, the better its serviceability and availability of spare parts. Peugeot 5008 might be a better choice in this respect. | |||
