Good: The 2012 Toyota RAV4 EV boasts an EPA range of 103 miles on its battery, and seems capable of more. The electric drive means low maintenance and running costs. Toyota Entune provides excellent connected features for monitoring charging.
Bad: The RAV4 EV has no option for quick charging, making minimum full recharge time 5 hours. Charging station locations could be better integrated with its navigation system. Even after incentives, it remains a pricey electric vehicle.
Bottom Line: The fact that the 2012 Toyota RAV4 EV is an electric SUV is less compelling than its range, where it comes in a little stronger than most electric cars. [Read more]

Good: The BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer measures your BAC with professional-grade fuel cell technology and estimates how long before you're sober. It's compact and syncs via Bluetooth with iPhones and has a companion app.
Bad: In order to save readings you must store them in the cloud. The BACtrack's social-media features share way too much. It's pricey.
Bottom Line: If you aren't turned off by its questionable social-sharing features, the advanced BACtrack Mobile Breathalyzer is a compelling tool that can help minimize overindulging. [Read more]

Good: The Logitech UE Boom is a compact, durable wireless Bluetooth speaker that plays very loud for its size and is water- and stain-resistant. It offers up to 15 hours of battery life, has speakerphone capabilities, and is well-suited to outdoor use. Also, if you buy a second speaker, you can create a completely wireless pair of true stereo speakers using the UE Boom app for iOS and Android devices.
Bad: Somewhat pricey; while the sound quality is very good for a speaker this size, the bass could be fuller.
Bottom Line: The $200 Logitech UE Boom is a versatile and durable wireless Bluetooth speaker that plays loud and is great for on-the-go use. [Read more]

Good: Squrl lets you search many of the Web's most popular video sites. It also serves up video recommendations, and has an interface that's both simple and attractive.
Bad: A Home button and a way to bookmark favorite channels would be nice.
Bottom Line: Rather than jumping around the Web to watch videos, download the beautifully designed Squrl, and use it as your one-stop video hub. [Read more]
