I am driving a Prado of 2018, it’s basically looks same like this 2022 model. I feel no other SUV got the muscular classy look the prado has. Maybe the power sometimes feels a little low for it’s size and weight still not a single complain, never. I dont use mine, I abuse my car and it can endure anything, everything. So happy with it.

It’s in the Everest in other countries, but ADR’s preclude universal plugs (what the last generation had), and so instead of getting a $2 plastic socket facia put on all Australian-bound Everest’s and Rangers, they just pulled it.

These RUclips car reviewers are too easily amused by fancy new bells and whistles. What vehicle has the newest tech and so forth, but they don't take into account how these latest tech things always have problems. They also praise these little things but put very little emphasis on reliability. Which should be the most important factor when reviewing a vehicle. I live in Uganda, and these Ford Everests just don't last long. They don't have the reliability of the Toyotas. You see one that's 5 years old, it's value has depreciated greatly. But the Toyota has only depreciated about 10 to 15 percent in 5 years. Third world countries are the true testing ground to determine a vehicles reliability, and you quickly see that nothing comes close to a Toyota. I wish these RUclips car reviewers weren't so easily distracted by shiney new toys and gadgets and could focus on the vehicles reliability. Because purchasing a car is essentially an investment. And the reliability of a vehicle is going to determine its resale value and depreciation. Fancy little tech things will never add nothing to the value of the car in the long run, they are just more things to break and go wrong. It's just not a smart investment to buy a vehicle other than a Toyota, especially in this class of vehicle.
I don't really trust the reliability of the Ford as I trust the Toyota. But truth be told the Ford looks better all round and it seems to be better at handling also than a Toyota. It's time Toyota ups the standards all round not only focus on reliability,Almost all Toyota's interior looks dull and very boring. When you buy your car you want it to be fancy the interior design must be up to latest standards.
I'd pick a tried and tested 4 x4 that's reliable over extra bells and whistles anyday. I know what I'd prefer to be driving around Australia in towing my van. Toyota v Ford is no compares when it comes to reliability.
No brainer....Next gen Ford everest is the clear winner....awesome look, great technologies and ample space....and finally great price compared to prado....just waiting for one.
To give the prado a fairer hearing, we should just wait for the new toyota prado platform set to be revealed sometime later in the year, this is because the everest is on its latest & newest platform, yet toyota has barely changed since 2015.
Toyota has been banking on their reputation for reliability while investing very little in R&D. Most new vehicles with long warranties are reliable too, and have better features and are more fun to drive. Most folks only keep their cars for 3-7 years before they replace them so saying the Toyota will still be in good shape in 20years is irrelevant. In almost every way the Everest is a better vehicle, more performance, more space and more features, and it's nearly 10k cheaper. It's hard to tell this years Prado from one ten years ago, and the interior is standard Japanese bland and boring. Toyota has even reduced their investment in performance models and engine tech, preferring to JV with Subaru and BMW to develop performance models. It's actually sad to see Toyota falling so far behind the competition. Prados are good vehicles for heavy off road use, but aside from that, they're old school and boring vehicles that don't do anything particularly well. In fact, there's been quite a lot of issues with Toyota Diesel engines in Asia so the reliability issues aren't really much of a selling point if you bother to do any research on it. I usually keep my vehicles about four to five years so I know which one of these I'd take and it isn't the Prado.
@@FranklyPrateek welcome to the 2020s... Everything is heading this way. I don't like it, but that's where it's headed anyway. Actual buttons are going the way of the dinosaurs. Unfortunately.
Everest is lister under the mid sized SUV, right? It would be better if both of the drivers tried to use the two cars, enable for them to compare which is which.
Watching this video makes me happy that I bought a brand new 2.8L diesel Prado last year. Still has plenty of tech, but not too much. And luckily it only has lane departure warning it doesnt help keep you in then lane with is seriously dangerous as on tight country roads you sometimes have to cross lanes on corners because roads aren't wide enough to keep in your lane. Having the car automatically keep you in your lane can and is dangerous and will cause more accidents than prevent. For those that really want this feature in a car, you either need to wake up, be more alert and drive the car or quit driving it is that simple. Cars nowadays have way to many driver aids. I like to drive a car and be in full control of it not the car in control of me. The prado is a perfect balance having many safety features, but at the same time letting the driver remain in full control. Before long we will all just sit in a car while it drives up to our destination. When that day comes, it will be better to just use public transportation. I hope Toyota doesnt ruin the new Prado by adding to much useless tech that most people should not be relying on. Anyway we shall see what becomes of it this autumn when it is released here in 🗾.
I 100% concur with you, I hate the ford driving for me. Then you have to keep putting it off. Also their head lights are horrible, I have shined brights in people's eyes because of it taking to long, I know when to put the brights off, don't need a car to decide.
Congratulations on your Everest platinum. I got a ranger sport knowing that I’d get more for my money with the Everest sport, I needed the Ute utility for how I live.
Bc Toyota knows that maintaining the car well will make it last longer, basically any car with long service intervals are only designed to last 5-10 years
Very poor test, why ...? Where are spec for approach/breakaway/departure angles, clearence, wading depth, reliability/durability , resale value and more. Both of them are offroaders, but no off road test, whats the point, they are nota racing cars to compare speed. In any case, Ford has done a great job, but LC is a Tank.
During Christmas break, travelled in my mate’s Kakadu from Sydney to Adelaide and returned to Melbourne with my brother in Law in his Everest Platinum which he acquired recently. (Reason was to check how the car is, as I am on the verge of buying a 7 Seater SUV, and was waiting for testing the Everest) Yes the tech in Ford is new but ride quality is incomparable. Prado beats Everest hands down. The Everest was rough and with too much body roll. Understandably so because it is a UTE based SUV whereas Prado ia not. Surprisingly all these reviewers who used to compare Everest with Pajeri Sport and Fortuner have conveniently forgotten their own reviews where Everest was touted as UTE based SUV. My advice to all the buyers is to somehow teat both cars for a longer distance and then make a decision. Cheers!!
You forgot to mention the ventilation in the everests seats, saying “breathing” and heated seats doesn’t cut it. The prado was clearly biased apon in this review. Many features of the Everest were over sighted.
Door pockets and cup holders ! I wanna know how long before the EGR system clogs the motor and at 50k kays she’s in the dealership getting bodgied up to get past warranty and then it’s all on you
@@sbGOM But Toyota does as compared to Ford dealerships. Jut look at how they treated their customers with the automatic gearboxes in their Focuses etc.
You can plug a hair straightener into the rear outlet, but if you do, you'll destroy the inverter. It's only rated to 100w. Enough for a laptop charger only. Hardly a selling point.
And here we are in December 2023 and car sales figures for November have Prado outselling Everest almost 3 to 1 and coming in at 5th most sold car. What does that tell you??
The biggest for me was that the Prado doesn't have wireless Carplay and you have to buy a wireless adapter for it. Look it seems like Ford have done great job in the design and options and pricing. But ultimately the biggest sticking point is that it is a Ford, and I am not dumb enough to buy a Ford (or a GMC vehicle for that matter). They have a lot of reputation to build back up with consumers before I will even consider one.
It is said that the Land Cruisers have a 25 year design life as opposed to the 15 year design life for ordinary cars. Which is why you still see 2002 Land Cruiser Prados still on the road with 300k-500k kms on them, and not very many Ford Territories. And why the 2nd hand value is so good on the Toyotas.
This video shows half comparison, only said about their tech and spec. No real ownership experience, why prado is a top seller.. as we saw few reports (current affairs) shows ford broke down under 5k off the dealership. And the resell value of a prado is way higher than anything else.
Why would I want to pay more for far less, Toyota just doesn’t seem to want to embrace innovation and technology and would rather play it safe, hence the the boring range of product available today…
well people can say and review whatever they wish, at the end of the day Its all about reliability, and I certainly know what id be taking around the country. Toyota is by far the reliable choice. Mind you I've owned many brands and taken them through their paces.., yes, there's nicer trims out there, but that doesn't necessarily form a great built car. More extras more risk of issues and you don't want that, particularly when miles away from home.. You want comfort and technology, go European.. Anyway, just my view, nevertheless less, safe motoring for everyone :)
@@redwhite_040 I 100% agree with you, no second thought about it.. But let me say just this.. The return rate home from any destination travelled is far higher reliability wise than any other brand… and that’s said on a global scale.. And toyota knows this, so they’ll cut the costs where they can where reliability does not matter, and unfortunately its the trim and features that they skimp on..
@@akfashnazir9673 A lot of car buyers have had more cars and experience and blown more money than any reviewer.. so hence why despite a review the buyers will pretty much favor something else.. Reviewers to a degree is really a business, further more, a test drive up and down a couple hills won’t give you an accurate reliable report for a long term report.. At the end of the day, it all comes down to what one person wants.. you want the bling, then there’s a brand for that, you wanna conquer half the planet, then there’s another brand for that.. Unfortunately there’s no perfect car to cater the lot
One of the main things that wasn't covered related to the Prado is it can only tow 3000kg. At least the Everest can tow 3500kg which is what you need if your towing a van around the place.
It’s Toyota’s fault that they make reliable and practical vehicles that last for generations. Because some people don’t simply deserve that, they need cars with all the bells and whistles that can hardly last a decade (in one piece). Sorry Toyota, you make bland and boring cars that are only designed to do the job and last for ages without breaking down on roads. That is not a good thing.
This is the same motor that has been in the discovey 4 since 2011 so long before ford took the design and put it in the Ford Everest. Ford took this engine design years ago when landrover was owned by Ford at one point so in fact it it is actually a landrover engine
Ive test drove top range prado and surprised it had still quite old safety techs.. and interesting expensive.. so we bought palisade and found it has top notches of safety techs probably the most high techs and more comfy.. extremely satisfying..
You've compared 2 vehicles with different target markets. The Prado is built for long-term reliability and off-road ability at the expense of newer tech bells and whistles. It will hold its value for far longer and outlive the Palisade especially if taken off-road.
You Aussies are so Toyota biased, you would have to have serious rocks in you head to buy the Toyota ! Its passing capability from 80 to 120 kph is measured on a calendar. (bring on the Toyota diehards!!)🤣
We should have a lot more info about the new Prado soon, but if you didn't see it already, the new Lexus GX gives us the best picture yet of what to expect, as the two cars will share underpinnings. Find out more here: www.drive.com.au/news/2024-lexus-gx-unveiled/
All this video does is makes me happy to have my 2015 V6 (207kw) Prado VX with KDSS and none of the pointless tech and gimmicks that the new Prados are encumbered with. I'll take the 30% extra fuel hit for 95 in exchange for cheaper fuel, overtaking power and refinement. The Ford look great but its Achilles heel will be the average Ford dealer service and questions over reliability.
Choose the everest cause prado looks old and dated for me and i dont likespendingmoneyonreliabilityonly ..its nothingwhen comparedto safety , breakstabilityand aid featuresthat Toyota has been low at all times .even seats feel new and more comfortable on the everest..reliability fanboys might hurt but if that's the case should get 4 runner then would choose the 4runner over the ford because it's not only reliable but also safe and feature loaded
nice ,some like toyota some like ford ,coke or Pepsi ,just wish we could get them in the U.S. gas is ok . wish we could get a 2 row for us who have no need want or will ever use a 3rd row but want a wagon over a double cab ute.. Everest $76990 = $51540 U.S. we pay that for a 2.3 4cy explorer timberline lame dirt road car no low range, our best is LC prado /Lexus GX460 v8 gas hog is $58k same as $87030 auz $ new bronco has a huge mark up
Both the Ford Everest and the Toyota Prado are popular choices in the SUV market, and it will be interesting to see how they continue to compete and evolve in future models.
@@farzana6676 that creates fresh, modern and new reliability and design issues. Not sure if you have had a look at ford track record on these, but it ain't great.
What i like about Prado is not only reliability but it is made in Japan, with sweat and tears of every japanese people, i really dont like cars made in Thailand
Toyota sticks to what works. Ford is using gimmicks, like a large screen, to catch buyers. I will take the Prado any day of the week. It just works and will work for years to come.
Really?? 10 yrs back automatic transmission was an option today manual transmission is not an option in most Toyota. So live in reality than a fan boy.
Yes and that’s the dead set fact of the whole thing. Ford throws inn that bling crap to lure in the blind people, which by the way has a limited life of durablility and reliability. Toyota stuff can be bland, but it works as intended . I’ll Take the prado or landcruiser any day head ache free
While Toyota will keep killing millions of people and began hijacking their cars and faulting them I would go with the everest it's safe atleast and technology loaded Would rather rebuild an engine than killing myself in an accident
Hired a Prado in NZ a couple of years ago. Worst car ever hired until we were given an MG. No I am not anti Toyota. I have 2 in my driveway. Prado needs a much better engine.
The Ford every day. Anyone who buys a Toyota must have Stockholm syndrome to willingly give a company so much money for a vehicle that is objectively worse in every single category.
Ford always have long term reliability and questionable maintenance issues If ... with this new Ford model ... it can last for the next 10 years without too much major issues ... then Ford has a chance to outsell Toyota
The Prado is old no doubt but still in terms of quality will bit the Everest. Ford like most of the American cars lacks the quality. As soon as getting into the car and touching the plastics and the seats you’ll notice it. I tested one and on the 3rd row there is absolutely no space underneath the 2nd row seats to put your feet in. Even my 10 year old daughter complained about not having space for feet. I am not sure how the test driver said it is not too bad.
Ford don’t need lane assist. Thats actually a massive selling point. Can’t stand it when the car is trying to veer you back and take over all the time. Most of the time it’s a false warning. Some cars you can’t even turn it off. So no it’s not a problem. Unless you suck at driving.
Journalists didn’t comment on the handling of the Everest, why? Made false comment about origin of the Ford V6 starting in the 2011 Ford Territory, when in fact this Ford engine was used back in 2005 in the Landrover Discovery 3. It is an old engine not new. Why did the journalists advise wrong misleading information and fail to comment on handling?
Shane, The engine from the Disco 3 is a 2.7lt V6. It was upgraded in the 2009/10 Disco 4 and Range Rover sport which has the 3lt V6. The Everest motor is an updated version of that motor. It even has the same outputs.
Toyota build solid reliable cars but man the internal instrument buttons and dials are straight out of the 90’s and they haven’t upgraded the bells and whistles to modern standards. Get with it.
Prado 101% even after 30 yrs that thing will still run like almost a bnew suv! Ford for the looks and style but looks and style alone wont get you as far as Toyota can..True Story!
Yeah. Know what you mean. Saw a couple of hippies the other day in an old EK. Luck buggers: no air, vinyl seats, gutless motor, lousy economy and push button radio- although that troublesome automatic choke was a backward step.
@@robmotown1 Did I forget the TIC? But seriously, what particular assists are you talking about? Personally I think auto start is a bit unnecessary and as someone who drove around the farm the seatbelt alarm gave me the shits. As an owner of a reasonably new Toyota, of course, I don't have to worry too much about the "latest" tech. Although I do love my Android Auto, even if Toyota was years behind the rest with this feature. Still waiting for automatic folding mirrors .
Not if you consider its offroad capabilities, which unfortunately were not part of the review. The Prado is so much better offroad, thats what it's built for - It's legendary. If they would have tested the offroad capabilities the Prado would be clear winner.
This guy reviewing the Everest is a bit pernikity... Here you have two cars being reviewed and one is much more expensive ie the Toyota and less modern than the Ford and is bettered in almost all areas yet we did not have a complaint about HUD or BSA what does the Everest reviewer want autonomous driving too? For my money he would be square on the Eveerest for too long Toyata has been getting away with sudstandard and poorly eqiped cars trading on the myth they are more reliable.. Is it because the people who buy them tend to look after their money more? Just saying...
My discs aren't old! Physical media forever! :P And I'd like to see you try stream movies outside of metropolitan areas where there's no data connection.
@AussieDazza never had an issue . I've broken cvs and abs cords out on tracks and still got me home. Fords are dead on the tracks all the time. See fords on fire oil leaks transmission fails dpf fires the list goes on. It's like seeing woolworths trucks vs coles trucks. I see way more wow trucks than coles. Hence fords on tow trucks or broken down on the side of the road more than a toyota
I bouht everest sport , absulut lemon.! Extremely high fuel condumption, malfuction of safety features, sudden fullbreak etc. More than 18 times at ford to have it fixed. They could not ! Replacement car with added price.!!!???
I drive a 2021 Kakadu and now In the red centre in a 2021 Everest Titanium after driving the Kakadu to SA. The Prado rides a bit firmer and corners better thanks to the KDSS. The 360 Camera works great not sure why the Everest we have doesn’t have it as it’s a must. The retuned engine with new turbo is more responsive than the Everest twin turbo. The Everest is noticeably more efficient at very high speeds even with ATs vs light duty ATs on the Prado and is equally quiet. It’s interior is not as well put together and less intuitive but has more bells and whistles. It doesn’t have a dual tank like our Prado but still has reasonable range. When you close the door it’s just not the same perceived solidity as our Prado. There is marginally more leg room for rear passengers behind my seat in the Prado. I’ll take my Kakadu thanks.
Would have got a corolla, a basic appliance or if you were that Toyota fanboy should have got the sequoia Everest over prado whatsoever Sequoia over everything
Thanks crappies for a good intro report - I’d take a Toyota over a Ford anyway - Toyota long term reliability is something a Ford will never have and I wouldn’t be sene dead in a bogun brand anyway
These spec reviews are silly. No offence to the producers, but this gen everist isnt tested, the prado is tried and proven. Can only compare spec's, not real world driving. I'd like to see the Ford after 150000 km, if it makes it, which is already failing reliability tests.
I am driving a Prado of 2018, it’s basically looks same like this 2022 model. I feel no other SUV got the muscular classy look the prado has. Maybe the power sometimes feels a little low for it’s size and weight still not a single complain, never. I dont use mine, I abuse my car and it can endure anything, everything. So happy with it.
They didn't mention the rear lights of the 2023 Everest have heaters built in.
Keeps your hands warm when pushing it home.
😂
We bought a Platinum. We test drove the Prado Kakadu, and it couldn’t compare.
It’s the little things that you don’t think of, that make the differences.
The Prado third row seats are standalone propositions. If you’ve ever had kids, you’ll know they drop shit all the time, and an integrated seat setup like the Everest reduces the risk of stuff falling between seats, or underneath them.
The Everest has all 5 second and third row seats with childseat anchor points on the back of the seat. It’s not in the roof like a Pajero Sport. It’s not only in the second, but not the third, forcing strange utilisation setups for travelling. We had a 2015 Everest Trend (which also had 5 seats with anchor points), and we were able to load it up with 5 car seats (when the kids were younger), for a birthday party.
It is a shame Ford didn’t put the 240V socket back in. It’s in the Everest in other countries, but ADR’s preclude universal plugs (what the last generation had), and so instead of getting a $2 plastic socket facia put on all Australian-bound Everest’s and Rangers, they just pulled it. I guess it gives them something to add in the midlife upgrade… Either way, there isn’t anything different to the electrical system between Australian and other market Everest’s, so an auto electrician could easily just whack one in.
The Matrix headlights are fantastic. The V6 diesel sounds like a petrol - I swear to god; it’s just so silky smooth.
The Everest can run in RWD only if you want, which helps save some fuel.
We optioned ours with the 18” wheels and All Terrain tyres. They aren’t the nicest looking wheels, but we drive on the Bruce Highway a fair bit, so the cushioning that the higher sidewall offers is more desirable.
Things not mentioned in this test are that the tailgate of the Everest can be opened by flicking your foot underneath it. Same for closing it.
The Everest doesn’t have a CD player at all, and it’s not an optionable item. That doesn’t bother us, but it might for some buyers.
The Everest has speed sign recognition, so can change your cruise control to the new speed (as you come in - or leave - small towns, etc. It also identifies school zones, and you can set the times those school zones apply, so it can change the cruise control there too.
You can setup a tolerance for the cruise control. We know that 104kph is a true 100kph, so we can set the car to do +4kph to the speed sign recognition, so when it sees a 100kph sign, it will set us to 104kph.
The lane keeping assist is truely remarkable. I’ve winced at it - guarding the steering wheel with my hands - but let the Everest whoosh me around snaking left and right bends at 80kph, all by itself. After about 10 seconds it starts yelling at you to keep your hands on the wheel, but it does almost drive itself.
The Everests have access to the Ford Pass app, which allows you to remote start your car. The Everests have a built in modem and connect to any cellular network for over the air updates, as well as accident notifications to emergency services, etc. This also enables the vehicle to be remote started almost anywhere in the world, so when you get to it, it can be cooled (or heated), so it’s not too uncomfortable. The doors are locked so obviously people can’t just steal the car, but it’s hilarious remote starting it in car parks because people look around and this car starting all by itself.
It also has a reverse parallel parking feature, where it will park the car for you.
The cameras give you 180° vision from the front bumper and rear bumper, enabling you to get out of blind spots (carparks, T junctions, etc), without the risk of someone hitting you out of nowhere.
We can’t fault our Everest Platinum yet.
Excellent commentary and good choice. Wishing you many safe miles

Why would anyone care about africa?
@@dus10remi i dont spend any of my money buying Toyota overrated vehicles. Toyotas are the most boring cars ever made.
@@zigzagger7893 have fun with that
I don't really trust the reliability of the Ford as I trust the Toyota. But truth be told the Ford looks better all round and it seems to be better at handling also than a Toyota. It's time Toyota ups the standards all round not only focus on reliability,Almost all Toyota's interior looks dull and very boring. When you buy your car you want it to be fancy the interior design must be up to latest standards.
I'd pick a tried and tested 4 x4 that's reliable over extra bells and whistles anyday. I know what I'd prefer to be driving around Australia in towing my van. Toyota v Ford is no compares when it comes to reliability.
@@BM-no4md how is your new gen prado going?
No brainer....Next gen Ford everest is the clear winner....awesome look, great technologies and ample space....and finally great price compared to prado....just waiting for one.

To give the prado a fairer hearing, we should just wait for the new toyota prado platform set to be revealed sometime later in the year, this is because the everest is on its latest & newest platform, yet toyota has barely changed since 2015.
2009 and the the Prado had lipstick applied. if the new hilux gr is anything to go by the Prado will be embarrassing as well
@@tyzon00800 well...fingers crossed🤞🏽
But it's the one they're selling now. And I'll bet the new Prado- whenever it arrives- won't be "just" 10 grand dearer.
@@tyzon00800 Hilux GR? That's still the same Hilux since 2015 and FYI the 2015 Hilux is still on the same chassis as the 2004 one.
I think I like the design of Prado than Everest but for the technology, the clear winner is the Everest.
We sold our Prado last year and bought trend.120000k’s and best decision ever.
Toyota has been banking on their reputation for reliability while investing very little in R&D. Most new vehicles with long warranties are reliable too, and have better features and are more fun to drive. Most folks only keep their cars for 3-7 years before they replace them so saying the Toyota will still be in good shape in 20years is irrelevant. In almost every way the Everest is a better vehicle, more performance, more space and more features, and it's nearly 10k cheaper. It's hard to tell this years Prado from one ten years ago, and the interior is standard Japanese bland and boring. Toyota has even reduced their investment in performance models and engine tech, preferring to JV with Subaru and BMW to develop performance models. It's actually sad to see Toyota falling so far behind the competition. Prados are good vehicles for heavy off road use, but aside from that, they're old school and boring vehicles that don't do anything particularly well. In fact, there's been quite a lot of issues with Toyota Diesel engines in Asia so the reliability issues aren't really much of a selling point if you bother to do any research on it. I usually keep my vehicles about four to five years so I know which one of these I'd take and it isn't the Prado.
So true
How reliable is the touchscreen system and the features that are only available from it. I.e. if the touchscreen doesn't work, then you lose features.
@@FranklyPrateek there is no problems with the touchscreen
@@FranklyPrateek welcome to the 2020s... Everything is heading this way. I don't like it, but that's where it's headed anyway. Actual buttons are going the way of the dinosaurs. Unfortunately.
Very little is said about the poor service you would receive from Ford once you drive off the lot. Their after sales service is unbelievably rubbish
The new generation everest all day every day. ;)
Everest is lister under the mid sized SUV, right?
It would be better if both of the drivers tried to use the two cars, enable for them to compare which is which.
When ordering the platinum, my question was, where's the HUD, will miss having one.
Toyota should keep its 4.0 option alive.
Watching this video makes me happy that I bought a brand new 2.8L diesel Prado last year. Still has plenty of tech, but not too much. And luckily it only has lane departure warning it doesnt help keep you in then lane with is seriously dangerous as on tight country roads you sometimes have to cross lanes on corners because roads aren't wide enough to keep in your lane. Having the car automatically keep you in your lane can and is dangerous and will cause more accidents than prevent. For those that really want this feature in a car, you either need to wake up, be more alert and drive the car or quit driving it is that simple. Cars nowadays have way to many driver aids. I like to drive a car and be in full control of it not the car in control of me. The prado is a perfect balance having many safety features, but at the same time letting the driver remain in full control. Before long we will all just sit in a car while it drives up to our destination. When that day comes, it will be better to just use public transportation. I hope Toyota doesnt ruin the new Prado by adding to much useless tech that most people should not be relying on. Anyway we shall see what becomes of it this autumn when it is released here in 🗾.
Cars are to be driven not to drive you. Thank you for calling them out who needs features they don’t even use.
I 100% concur with you, I hate the ford driving for me. Then you have to keep putting it off. Also their head lights are horrible, I have shined brights in people's eyes because of it taking to long, I know when to put the brights off, don't need a car to decide.
Which of these two vehicles have a tighter turning circle at full steering lock?
The Prado is slightly tighter at 11.6m against 11.8m for the Everest.
Congratulations on your Everest platinum. I got a ranger sport knowing that I’d get more for my money with the Everest sport, I needed the Ute utility for how I live.
What’s the service intervals for the ford and Toyota? Why is the Toyota shorter service intervals, is there something wrong ?
Bc Toyota knows that maintaining the car well will make it last longer, basically any car with long service intervals are only designed to last 5-10 years
Prado, Obviously especially for tall 190CM
its like a cougar dating a 20yr old fresh faced boy , 2009 vs 2022
Very poor test, why ...? Where are spec for approach/breakaway/departure angles, clearence, wading depth, reliability/durability , resale value and more. Both of them are offroaders, but no off road test, whats the point, they are nota racing cars to compare speed. In any case, Ford has done a great job, but LC is a Tank.
Your comment made me scroll to find out who won and not watch the video. I’ve seen a similar video between Ford Ute and Isuzu
During Christmas break, travelled in my mate’s Kakadu from Sydney to Adelaide and returned to Melbourne with my brother in Law in his Everest Platinum which he acquired recently. (Reason was to check how the car is, as I am on the verge of buying a 7 Seater SUV, and was waiting for testing the Everest)
Yes the tech in Ford is new but ride quality is incomparable. Prado beats Everest hands down. The Everest was rough and with too much body roll. Understandably so because it is a UTE based SUV whereas Prado ia not.
Surprisingly all these reviewers who used to compare Everest with Pajeri Sport and Fortuner have conveniently forgotten their own reviews where Everest was touted as UTE based SUV.
My advice to all the buyers is to somehow teat both cars for a longer distance and then make a decision. Cheers!!
Thanks for real test results. Prado is by far the most comfortable to ride long distance. Ford just looked and feel plastic.
@@LubbeArt100% I purchased a Prado Kakadu after that. The Air Suspension makes it glide on roads. I don’t care for those fancy gadgets. 😅
You forgot to mention the ventilation in the everests seats, saying “breathing” and heated seats doesn’t cut it. The prado was clearly biased apon in this review. Many features of the Everest were over sighted.
In warmer climates seat ventilation is more important
Both had ventilated and heated seats?
It’s crazy how they haven’t changed the car since 2018
Door pockets and cup holders ! I wanna know how long before the EGR system clogs the motor and at 50k kays she’s in the dealership getting bodgied up to get past warranty and then it’s all on you
Re EGR, same could be said of the Prado.....I assume you're talking about the Everest....it's not like the 2.8 covers itself in glory in that regard.
Toyota and all others are having problems trying to meet the rules of the lefty snowflake environmentalist.
@@sbGOM But Toyota does as compared to Ford dealerships. Jut look at how they treated their customers with the automatic gearboxes in their Focuses etc.
You can plug a hair straightener into the rear outlet, but if you do, you'll destroy the inverter. It's only rated to 100w. Enough for a laptop charger only. Hardly a selling point.
How about the fuse not the inverter you need to understand 12v
Is it a Prado tx,vx or zg?
And here we are in December 2023 and car sales figures for November have Prado outselling Everest almost 3 to 1 and coming in at 5th most sold car. What does that tell you??
TOYOTA !!👍🏼
The biggest for me was that the Prado doesn't have wireless Carplay and you have to buy a wireless adapter for it. Look it seems like Ford have done great job in the design and options and pricing. But ultimately the biggest sticking point is that it is a Ford, and I am not dumb enough to buy a Ford (or a GMC vehicle for that matter). They have a lot of reputation to build back up with consumers before I will even consider one.
It is said that the Land Cruisers have a 25 year design life as opposed to the 15 year design life for ordinary cars. Which is why you still see 2002 Land Cruiser Prados still on the road with 300k-500k kms on them, and not very many Ford Territories. And why the 2nd hand value is so good on the Toyotas.
This video shows half comparison, only said about their tech and spec. No real ownership experience, why prado is a top seller.. as we saw few reports (current affairs) shows ford broke down under 5k off the dealership. And the resell value of a prado is way higher than anything else.
Interesting they say the Prado is old, doesn't the ford have an older design engine and gearbox ?
Why would I want to pay more for far less, Toyota just doesn’t seem to want to embrace innovation and technology and would rather play it safe, hence the the boring range of product available today…
boring but it sells well..why is that?
@Arc Solomon it's because the only thing that's keeping them afloat is Reliability...without that you must forget that a Toyota Matches a Ford...Never
@James Ndlovu how can you even think of comparing a ford and a toyota, the sales speak for themselves.
The lemmings will keep buying Prados 😏. It remains a safe and relatively low risk purchase.
What did you buy?
well people can say and review whatever they wish, at the end of the day Its all about reliability, and I certainly know what id be taking around the country. Toyota is by far the reliable choice. Mind you I've owned many brands and taken them through their paces.., yes, there's nicer trims out there, but that doesn't necessarily form a great built car. More extras more risk of issues and you don't want that, particularly when miles away from home.. You want comfort and technology, go European.. Anyway, just my view, nevertheless less, safe motoring for everyone :)
Why can't Toyota make a nice interior like Mazda or any European and still have the reliability.
And the sales numbers show what people really want no matter what car reviewers have to say
@@redwhite_040 I 100% agree with you, no second thought about it.. But let me say just this.. The return rate home from any destination travelled is far higher reliability wise than any other brand… and that’s said on a global scale.. And toyota knows this, so they’ll cut the costs where they can where reliability does not matter, and unfortunately its the trim and features that they skimp on..
@@akfashnazir9673 A lot of car buyers have had more cars and experience and blown more money than any reviewer.. so hence why despite a review the buyers will pretty much favor something else.. Reviewers to a degree is really a business, further more, a test drive up and down a couple hills won’t give you an accurate reliable report for a long term report.. At the end of the day, it all comes down to what one person wants.. you want the bling, then there’s a brand for that, you wanna conquer half the planet, then there’s another brand for that.. Unfortunately there’s no perfect car to cater the lot
@@akfashnazir9673 Sales numbers can be skewed by lack of effective competition and advertising.
One of the main things that wasn't covered related to the Prado is it can only tow 3000kg. At least the Everest can tow 3500kg which is what you need if your towing a van around the place.
? In Europe the prado can tow 3.5 tonne
Towing 3500kg in a 2500kg car is about as dumb as dumb can be.
Have you ever towed 3500kg in an Everest? Sure it looks good on paper but let’s see how you enjoy it.
Why the Prado is so popular is beyond me..... Trading on a name/perceived quality rather then reality
Everest every day of the week for mine
just drive one and you'll see
You got me at the “gelatinous” ease comment. I’m getting a Prado
Some models of the platinum have a 3 pin socket inverter
It does seem the Prado is more spacious for those sitting in the second row. I also like the 3 zone climate control with the prado.
Prado is the new mux
Not true look at the specs not feels like?
It’s Toyota’s fault that they make reliable and practical vehicles that last for generations. Because some people don’t simply deserve that, they need cars with all the bells and whistles that can hardly last a decade (in one piece).
Sorry Toyota, you make bland and boring cars that are only designed to do the job and last for ages without breaking down on roads. That is not a good thing.
The first will be on the garage after 50K. Save your pocket and get the Japanese
I don’t imagine the next gen Everest will be the new favourite car of the aboriginal population, like the territory is.
Mux still has the roomiest third row in class
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 and a tractor engine for free
I love it's robustness
And biggest boot space and most reliable engine
This is the same motor that has been in the discovey 4 since 2011 so long before ford took the design and put it in the Ford Everest. Ford took this engine design years ago when landrover was owned by Ford at one point so in fact it it is actually a landrover engine
I wouldn't say that too loud.
The biggest question is, will the components last?
The 10 speed transmission on that Ford is a major worry.
Ive test drove top range prado and surprised it had still quite old safety techs.. and interesting expensive.. so we bought palisade and found it has top notches of safety techs probably the most high techs and more comfy.. extremely satisfying..
Compare a Palisade to LandCruiser? Interesting
You've compared 2 vehicles with different target markets. The Prado is built for long-term reliability and off-road ability at the expense of newer tech bells and whistles. It will hold its value for far longer and outlive the Palisade especially if taken off-road.
Palisade can't go offroad!
@@farzana6676 it can

I also bought a Fortuner for the same reason. Never looked back.
A rumor of the Prado getting updated this year to an all new one.

All this video does is makes me happy to have my 2015 V6 (207kw) Prado VX with KDSS and none of the pointless tech and gimmicks that the new Prados are encumbered with. I'll take the 30% extra fuel hit for 95 in exchange for cheaper fuel, overtaking power and refinement.
The Ford look great but its Achilles heel will be the average Ford dealer service and questions over reliability.
I prefer the Everest even if it was same price
Choose the everest cause prado looks old and dated for me and i dont likespendingmoneyonreliabilityonly ..its nothingwhen comparedto safety , breakstabilityand aid featuresthat Toyota has been low at all times .even seats feel new and more comfortable on the everest..reliability fanboys might hurt but if that's the case should get 4 runner then would choose the 4runner over the ford because it's not only reliable but also safe and feature loaded

That’s a preference
Not to me!
The Prado’s also brand new, what are you even talking about? It’s not like it was taken from the production batch of 2012 or something.
Ford just got a big screen. That's it.

Ford everest finally passed prado, will wait for the next model prado to see what toyota brings to the table.
Both the Ford Everest and the Toyota Prado are popular choices in the SUV market, and it will be interesting to see how they continue to compete and evolve in future models.

Prado looks like 2000s car.... tooo outdated 😬😬😬
but its a Ford vs Toyota. Its a no brainer for reliability.
Does the 2.7 turbo diesel engine from 2011 relate to the Peugeot engine used in the Land Rover series at the same time in the Discovery 4 series 1
you are spot on mate
Yes. It's the Ford PSA Lion engine initially mounted into front wheel drive Peugeot sedans, hence the extremely compact crankshaft design.
@@tempestv8 Couldn't they make something fresh, modern and new for the Everest?
The 2.7 in the Territory is actually related more to the Jaguar but yes, still born from the Land Rover.
@@farzana6676 that creates fresh, modern and new reliability and design issues. Not sure if you have had a look at ford track record on these, but it ain't great.

The Ford is also made in RSA
@@thetad1242 Everest is not made in RSA, only the Ranger
Lmao! Funny how people can be overly dramatic.
But what's hurts about the prado is that not only its outdated but it has the same output as the fortuner
Toyota sticks to what works. Ford is using gimmicks, like a large screen, to catch buyers. I will take the Prado any day of the week. It just works and will work for years to come.
Really?? 10 yrs back automatic transmission was an option today manual transmission is not an option in most Toyota. So live in reality than a fan boy.
Yes and that’s the dead set fact of the whole thing. Ford throws inn that bling crap to lure in the blind people, which by the way has a limited life of durablility and reliability. Toyota stuff can be bland, but it works as intended . I’ll Take the prado or landcruiser any day head ache free
While Toyota will keep killing millions of people and began hijacking their cars and faulting them

Hired a Prado in NZ a couple of years ago. Worst car ever hired until we were given an MG. No I am not anti Toyota. I have 2 in my driveway. Prado needs a much better engine.
The Ford every day. Anyone who buys a Toyota must have Stockholm syndrome to willingly give a company so much money for a vehicle that is objectively worse in every single category.
Buy the everest
You know the territory is still available overseas
Ford always have long term reliability and questionable maintenance issues
If ... with this new Ford model ... it can last for the next 10 years without too much major issues ... then Ford has a chance to outsell Toyota
The Prado is old no doubt but still in terms of quality will bit the Everest. Ford like most of the American cars lacks the quality. As soon as getting into the car and touching the plastics and the seats you’ll notice it. I tested one and on the 3rd row there is absolutely no space underneath the 2nd row seats to put your feet in. Even my 10 year old daughter complained about not having space for feet. I am not sure how the test driver said it is not too bad.
Everest all the way!!
Ford don’t need lane assist. Thats actually a massive selling point. Can’t stand it when the car is trying to veer you back and take over all the time. Most of the time it’s a false warning. Some cars you can’t even turn it off. So no it’s not a problem. Unless you suck at driving.
Journalists didn’t comment on the handling of the Everest, why? Made false comment about origin of the Ford V6 starting in the 2011 Ford Territory, when in fact this Ford engine was used back in 2005 in the Landrover Discovery 3. It is an old engine not new. Why did the journalists advise wrong misleading information and fail to comment on handling?
Shane, The engine from the Disco 3 is a 2.7lt V6. It was upgraded in the 2009/10 Disco 4 and Range Rover sport which has the 3lt V6. The Everest motor is an updated version of that motor. It even has the same outputs.
You cannot compare an everest to a prado period.
What are your reasons??
Toyota build solid reliable cars but man the internal instrument buttons and dials are straight out of the 90’s and they haven’t upgraded the bells and whistles to modern standards. Get with it.
Prado 101% even after 30 yrs that thing will still run like almost a bnew suv! Ford for the looks and style but looks and style alone wont get you as far as Toyota can..True Story!
It’s crazy to think that electronic assists are a good thing….. I personally can not stand any intervention of my driving!!!!
Yeah. Know what you mean. Saw a couple of hippies the other day in an old EK. Luck buggers: no air, vinyl seats, gutless motor, lousy economy and push button radio- although that troublesome automatic choke was a backward step.
@@sbGOM None of those are electronic assists!
@@robmotown1 Did I forget the TIC?
But seriously, what particular assists are you talking about? Personally I think auto start is a bit unnecessary and as someone who drove around the farm the seatbelt alarm gave me the shits.

Although I do love my Android Auto, even if Toyota was years behind the rest with this feature. Still waiting for automatic folding mirrors .

Not if you consider its offroad capabilities, which unfortunately were not part of the review. The Prado is so much better offroad, thats what it's built for - It's legendary. If they would have tested the offroad capabilities the Prado would be clear winner.

Toyota is so old school it's frightening.
I drive a 2021 Kakadu and now In the red centre in a 2021 Everest Titanium after driving the Kakadu to SA.
The Prado rides a bit firmer and corners better thanks to the KDSS. The 360 Camera works great not sure why the Everest we have doesn’t have it as it’s a must. The retuned engine with new turbo is more responsive than the Everest twin turbo.
The Everest is noticeably more efficient at very high speeds even with ATs vs light duty ATs on the Prado and is equally quiet. It’s interior is not as well put together and less intuitive but has more bells and whistles. It doesn’t have a dual tank like our Prado but still has reasonable range. When you close the door it’s just not the same perceived solidity as our Prado. There is marginally more leg room for rear passengers behind my seat in the Prado.
I’ll take my Kakadu thanks.
Yep Same here mate Kakadu through and though, tried and tested will last a million kms

These spec reviews are silly. No offence to the producers, but this gen everist isnt tested, the prado is tried and proven. Can only compare spec's, not real world driving. I'd like to see the Ford after 150000 km, if it makes it, which is already failing reliability tests.
