The Subaru might be another option, but some of the reviews don't look great - switching in and out of electric mode, less room in the back, etc.
Subaru is becoming totally irrelevant IMO.

I fataing hate when sales people aren't car people. I hate even more when they don't know the vehicles in their own line-up. I know so many vehicles across so many brands and I'm not even in the industry. How do you not even accidentally learn about the models for your own brand?

My mom just bought a new Rav a couple of months ago and despite my hate for SUVs, the new model is the best of the bunch IMO. I like the CRV interior - maybe even a little better - but the exterior is not very nice.

A plug-in Rav4 would take a good package and make it even better.
