Article Abstract:

It is likely that consumer groups will allege that the Toyota RAV4 and the Suzuki X90 have an innate tendency to roll over because of their high profiles. However, official statistics show that rollovers are largely due to driver error rather than inherent stability problems and that small utility vehicles are even less prone to rollovers than conventional cars.
