    I know that 2.5L V6 doesn’t have that much power at 204 HP but if you don’t care about that and just want a comfortable ride that is still sporty, this IS 250 is a good choice. Plus that V6 will last year an eternity as expected from Lexus.

      @@DMCarReviews pretty much the same amount of power as the current RAV4 with the 2.5L 4 cylinder, so plenty of power for just normal street driving.

      Actually this 2.5 engine have problematic carbon buildup because it only have direct fuel injetcion, the 350 is a better buy with plenty more power and port/direct fuel injection that eliminates this issue. But i also seen some ppl with a lot of miles on this 250.
