If you’re in the market to buy a new Toyota RAV4 Hybrid, you wouldn’t ordinarily cast a sideways glance at a used BMW X5. After all, your initial choice might be that default compact crossover if you’re chasing efficiency and dependability. The other vehicle is a mid-sized luxury SUV that has plenty of power. However, depreciation may come into the picture and erase some of that separation. And when you find that a four-year-old X5 costs virtually the same as a well-equipped new RAV4, you may have some additional thinking to do.
