Doors, seats, weight, maneuverability
When it comes to doors, there is no difference between the 2021 Ford Mustang Mach‑E and 2022 Toyota RAV4, with each using a 5-door configuration. Neither holds an advantage in passenger count, as both have a maximum of 5-seats. A minor 0.6 m in turning circle separates these two, meaning they handle tight car parks almost equally. The 2021 Ford Mustang Mach‑E outweighs the 2022 Toyota RAV4 by 436 kg, and that extra mass may contribute to a more solid feel on the road while increasing fuel use and reducing responsiveness in comparison.
