The modern Rav4 has exactly the same length and width as the modern Camry. Cars have gotten bigger, for sure, but by no means is it huge.

I stood next to a new Rav in the showroom, it seemed overly big to me. I want a small vehicle with a high wheelbase so I can drive on farm tracks.

A modern Camry is actually a whole foot longer than a Rav4, but the Rav4 is 1 inch wider and quite a bit taller. Definitely not the exact same size.
