I'm always brand conscious but with a reason. Toyota vs Hyundai, hands down Toyota for me is the winner. The engine and the tranny is the heart of an automobile and Toyota is making the best engine and tranny combination imo.
I've owned Honda and Toyota cars before the RAV and i find Toyotas to have smooth silky tranny, nimble but at the same time smooth and silent when putting pressure to its engine. Between Honda and Toyota, the Toyota's also have lower road noise than the Hondas and Toyotas are more agile than their Honda counterpart. But frankly i was surprised with my new RAV4, the road noise is not as good as what i experienced with my Corolla and Lexus ES.
