Honda CRV Series
Nissan XTrail Series
Mazda CX Series
Toyota Vanguard
@Ndindu always a VW fanatic but in Japan I choose Honda for safety and reliability. Toyota is good but is a thief’s magnet. XTrail is trash especially it’s gearbox Mazda is only good for first 2 years. Mazda CX is a moneypit, stay away.
If you are a car person you will know that Toyota Vanguard is the Long Chassis version of RAV 4. Everything else is the same, from engines to door locks.
