    Tom compares the 2021 Fortuner and Pajero Sport and provides an expert opinion.
    So you want an off-road 4WD wagon but you don’t want to pay for a Land Cruiser or Patrol. Okay, so should you buy the new Toyota Fortuner with the boosted 2.8-litre diesel, or the much cheaper Mitsubishi Pajero Sport with the 2.4-litre? Is the Fortuner GXL really worth $10K more than the Pajero Sport GLS? We’re going to take a close look and find out what the best 4x4 wagon is in 2021.
    In today’s view, Tom Baker from Chasing Cars conducts a comparison review of the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and the updated Toyota Fortuner, checking out their off-road ability, on-road manners and interior packaging.
    What would you buy? These? Something else entirely? A Ford Everest or Isuzu MU-X? Let me know below in the comments.

    I would absolutely choose the Pajero Sport. It's hard to beat the value of Mitsubishi right now. For similar spec'd vehicles, it is not unusual to see at least a $10K price difference with a lot of their models. I've just bought a new Outlander LS 2WD Petrol and while the CVT transmission isn't perfect, it is a great family bus. Well done Mitsubishi!

    I have been a Mitsubishi user for years. My last car was the Lancer. 19 years never missed a beat. Now I own a Montero Sport 2012. I have been driving it 9 years. 3 deep flood crossings and so far I only replaced brake pads and a belt. I will once again buy myself a Gen 3 Montero because of performance and reliability.

      My PS is now 3yrs old so as I'm in NZ I still have 7 years on the warranty to go. When deciding I tried the MU-X and the Holden Colorado wagon the Mitzi was far superior back then, I never tried the Fortuner almost double the price or the Ford equivalent for the same reason.
      I still love the PS on a long journey or around town. Most of my driving I'm in 4H as it feels more balanced and safer, especially in the wet. I only ever tow while in 4H. In fact towing in the wet in 4H I can out accelerate unloaded Ford Rangers coming out of sharp bends especially going up hill, they must wonder what's wrong with their ute. They usually roar past on the first straight to prove something.

    I just saw this and I'm nearly a 12mth owner of a Mitsi PJS in GLX guise. On road for me was @55K with tow bar, bull bar, roof bars, window tint and dash cams. Really good value. The reason for this was this was and is I believe the only 5 seat version available. The only major items I missed getting in this spec are the auto tail gate, a Locking rear diff and the option of leather. None of these matter to me. KId's have flown the coupe. It still has all the same safety goodies. On and Off road it has to this point been an awesome vehicle, even without the rear diff lock and yes, the Superselect transmission with the option of AWD on the tarmac for those wet days is a big plus. So far I'm loving the experience.😎

    I looked at both models as I was looking to purchase a new vehicle, I chose the Mitsubishi Pajero Sport. I have always bought Toyotas before but was disappointed with several aspects of the Fortuner. The side storage of the third row seat took up a lot of storage area and obstructed, the views out of the rear section. the third row in the Pajero folds down flat which is much more convenient and doesn't obstruct any line of sight. The Pajero Sport can be put in 4 wheel drive mode while on paved road when the conditions such as mud, rain and flooding makes its way on the road. I live in the country so this is very important. The tech in the Pajero Sport is much better overall than the Fortuner, this is both a positive and a negative as there is the possibility of having more electronics go wrong, but in this automotive day and age this may be a reality regardless of what new vehicle you own. I really hope that the next model of the Fortuner addresses these issues, but I am just one consumer and my concerns may not be the pathway for the Fortuner in the future but one can hope.

The second row seats can also be folded front to have a larger storage area, I’m not sure if the Fortuner does that.

      The Fortuner is more moddable, has better low down torque, better traction control and is essentially a bit better out of the box offroad than that Pajero Sport. Also the Fortuner can handle the weight of a steel bullbar way better than a PS, even if you upgraded suspension on both and I've driven both BTW. You wouldn't really want to go tyres any bigger than 32" on the Fortuner although some have squeezed in 33's. I expect the PS to be similar, if not worse in that dept. Oh and i found visibility to be better out of the Fortuner to be better also, especially over the bonnet when picking lines.

    Nice comparison review.👌🏻
    Definitely the Pajero sport wins here in all aspect.🤩
    I thought the ride comfort of the facelifted Fortuner improved already after Toyota installed a better torsion beam. Or maybe it was installed on the Legender variant only.
    Hope you can check on this. Thanks. Stay safe.👍🏻

      @@flyguy9404 Not sure how you arrive at that conclusion... most actual reviews off road have them pretty close. The PS offers better of road modes and electronic supports... the Fortuner better base capability with slightly better clearance, approach and departure angles. The Fortuner may be better overall but from all the reviews I have seen, it is fairly close.

    Thanks for this comparison. This is currently my dilemma. Also that a bullbar isn't made for the new pajero sport exceed at the moment. It would be a lease car. I'm not fussed on waiting but hubby seems to think it needs to be done yesterday. I love the feeling and drive of the PS. I will need to drive the fortuner again. Resale is also of concern. Obviously toyotas hold their value alot better then most cars. It's a hard decision to make. And it's not a cheap decision either.

    Hi Tom. I love your work. We have an quote of the fortuner (GXL + Premium Interior) a grand cheaper than the quote pajero sport exceed. We might do a bit of towing - horse float etc. What would you choose when there is virtually no price difference? Thank you!

    • @alexbarquin9
      @alexbarquin9 Год назад

      Just got my fortuner and loving it. For towing, I'd say more grunt is better for you and hence the fort would be your pick. On the flip side, some might say Psport's super select trany would be better for towing as it allows you to drive 4wd hi on tarmac road while the fort can't, on tarmac it's only on 2wd. All the best in choosing you next vehicle.

    It's interesting to see that the creature comfort lists in these ute-based SUVs hasn't changed much from a decade ago. It's mostly connectivity and active safety that has but even then, we own an R51 Nissan Pathfinder that has most of the list from both of these covered in terms of its feature set and beats them both in terms of packaging.
    I watched another review of the MU-X top specification as I had a keen interest in upgrading to one when we eventually want to upgrade but I was amazed that even a 2020 brand spanker that costs $60k on the road didn't have electric and heated front seats, dual zone climate, sunroof, etc and the usable space with all 7 seats in place was abysmal compared to the Pathfinder. I'm guessing with the Isuzu though you're paying more for the reliability of its drivetrain for which the reputation of the Nissan at the time was....not favourable, to put it lightly.
    I do eagerly await the new MU-X though because the new D-Max looks to be a great platform for it. Hopefully Mazda introduces their own version of it based on the BT-50 but I doubt they will.

If someone wants to go for a compact suv with pretty good safety tech and drive comfort within the city and long drives outside of city( am not the one who goes for off road drive but countryside is something we prefer sometime) what will be your pick? Budget upto 60kAUD and preferably lasting more than 5 years with some resale value. Buying car in Australia(Sydney) for 1st time can be an overwhelming experience for someone coming from India.

    I own 2021 GLS PS with only 23000Kms. Sure great value, nice to drive - add a throttle controller, fully transforms the vehicle, awesome response! (I also own 2019 GLS Triton, love it). BUT I wish I waited for 2022 MUX! I traded a 2014 MUX for the Pajero, MUX started to feel like an old tractor compared to PS. I just dont like the rear seat setup in PS. We have 4 kids so use 3rd row seats all the time, they are fine to sit in but if you have child seats in middle row - attaching to the roof is not as good as MUX attaching to the rear of second row plus seat belt setup in the middle of the 2nd row is $hithouse - you have a buckle up your but! If Mitsubishi sorted this out it would be great! TOYOTA TAX - not for me...Plus the 4WD System is superior having AWD option in wet weather conditions...ISUZU just as reliable but maybe not as refined. Looking at trading PS for LST MUX. Any offers...haha
