it will probably be sized similar to European Rav4, so basically around Lexus IS size.

A cute ute will be next gen Rav4 based for sure. Lexus shares the RX, GX, LX with Toyota versions so why not for a cut ute version.

Plan ahead!! Size does matter!! You will find out soon enough that kid "stuff" (car seats, pack'nplays, strollers, toys, trikes, etc, etc, take up SO much space! You'll out grow even that CRV in no time flat!!!!!!! Go even bigger.

If you don't, remember I told you so.
