[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you hit a person with your vehicle while driving, you're 2-3 times more likely to kill them if you're driving an SUV (even a "small" SUV like the RAV4) than if you're driving a sedan (like the Camry).[/quote] My understanding is that this is true of SUVs built on on truck platforms but less so for those like the RAV4 that are built on unibody car platforms; in fact, the RAV4 is now built on the same platform as the Camry (although previously it was smaller and shared a platform with the Corolla): https://www.businessinsider.com/toyota-rav4-2019-suv-review-photos-2019-4 Here’s one study showing that the risk of death to passengers in other cars is lower when hit by a unibody-construction car than a body-on-frame SUV: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/24821629[/quote]
