The Car Connection's Take

TCC Rating
7.6
7.8
7.2

TCC’s Bottom Line
The 2014 Honda CR-V isn't exactly sprightly, but it nails efficiency on a few levels and finally brings more features to the family-wagon fight. The 2014 Jeep Cherokee plants a foot in both the crossover and SUV world--and only flubs the styling. The 2014 Toyota RAV4 is sensible and spacious; but if driving fun is a priority, you can do better.
