- Australian-developed off-road wagon goes head to head with the nation’s top-selling large SUV 👉 Full Comparison Test: www.carsales.com.au/editorial...
The fourth-generation 2023 Toyota Prado may well date back more than 13 years, but it remains Australia’s most popular large SUV.
Meantime the second-generation 2023 Ford Everest is practically brand-new, designed and engineered in Australia, and the Prado’s most serious challenger to date.
Does the aged but popular Prado still deserve its crown? We lined up the flagship versions of both seven-seat off-road 4x4 wagons to find out.

Hi Fans, we're currently filming the same comparison but with an off-road and towing focus. Stay tuned 🙂
The new ones really don't have that little off-road lick that the 90 series had. It's just a Toorak tractor now
I noticed you didn’t mention the DPF (prado) and the ad-blue (ford). The ad-blue is a bit of a thing for someone living remote. For example if you lived in Weipa (FNQ) there are no ad-blue fuel stations up there. Thought it was worth a mention for the non city slickers.
I've driven the new platinum and love it. I've driven a lot of vehicles in my time, but this everest exceeded my expectations. Which is why I've ordered the platinum. It ticks so many boxes for me. 👍
How long is the waiting period for delivery?
@@GrillMatic_SmokinBBQ Estimated delivery is 10 July for me.
They are telling me 12 months....where did you order yours?
@@GrillMatic_SmokinBBQ Suttons Ford Homebush
Congratulations. Is it v6 diesel?
Off road test is a must
The best ford everest model of all time...
Ford everest is a clear winner....great look...awesome tech..and ample space even with all 7 seats up....of all.. comparatively huge price difference...
Fords history with electronics 😂😂😂😂
@@stevespatrol and toyota with dpf!!!
@johanbritz8764 That way European cars are super shit....and Toyota is going down the hill as well
@johanbritz8764 because they are doing well...and this time Ford has done a great job
@@johanbritz8764 that's correct....
Does anyone know the interior dimensions of the rear with all the seats folded down in the Prado? Also, do they fold completely flat?
Thanks for the great review. Any chance you can undertake a review of best Aussie vehicle to tow a 3T caravan around Australia that is not a huge yank monster nor a 4.5T truck? Would love to see a similar style review to this one. Thanks!
Hi Joe, we have a tow test coming video out in the next couple of weeks with the new Everest and Prado. Stay tuned :)
when is the new Prado coming out?
Prado forever 👍💪🏽
Ford`s reliability and lack of customer support makes it a no go for me. Might be nice and shiny and will make a good Toorak tourer up to 80K kms but apart from that.......?
I am Ford Guy, Got F150 and Explorer SUV, The Everest has a Lot of Bells and Whistles, Not sure how reliable the 3.0 Diesel Turbo charged engine, But I know this for Sure the Toyota Will Last for Ever
Love the Everest. Cheers for this.
I own neither but are looking at buyer one of hence watching this video. Ive seen (suprisingly) 2x new hilux with the same basic motor and 1x new prado broken down on the side of the road in the last month so my original confidence in toyota has reduced a bit. My wife likes all the fancy tech in the everest but i do have concerns as to how long that will last in the long run.
Hmmmm seems like my choice of ordering a Sport with the 18s is the best option.
I wish the Sport had the panoramic sunroof as an option
I wish the sport had the full size dash with a proper tachometer and the tire pressure monitoring
Moon roof and pressure gauge pushed me to order the platinum, along with touring pack, 18 on at’s. ARB 2inch lift, bullbar and sidesteps, 98k all in.
@ashleykspencer exactly
@@lukefisher328 ouch
Toyota is the best, I go for prado without even thinking twice.
Great video !
I ❤ Everest 2023 version than any suv
Prado any day of the week due to reliability.
Both are good SUVs bt i will go for Prado due its simplicity and reliability
You failed to mention with the 3rd row down, the Everest has almost double the boot space.
Can't stand brushed chrome flashings on inside of dash. Particularly when they reflect the sun ...
❤Ford Everest is the fastest, most comfortable and quietest SUV🚙❤
So true! All other competitors are falling behind with power, technology, and just everything in general! It is clearly the winner in its class, and it will be for a while😅💪🏻😎
Drove one recently.Was terrible
@@Carlos-of5cv thsts just ur personal opinion it is an all round good car compared to the prado for sure
@@KawasakisAreBetter_1234 yeah sure but for me i prefer Toyota it’s more reliable, and you can armor a Prado.
New Everest Titanium has more features such as autonomus driving, autonomus parking, safety, car entertainment. Also stability for offroad capability is better, if we pay attention on Everest Titanium 4wd undercarriage has more stabilizer link to keep front and rear diff axle stay in the middle
Both too expensive, the new Everest is the better looking up to date vehicle.
Not really. Every other vehicle of this size is the same price basically. Got to remember these are brand new & not used as well. 2022 Everest is more high-tech than most exotic cars out there.
I have a prado n next gen everest titanium n i see the everest has a strong edge against prado n so far i want to everest its cheaper compare to old prado long outmodel design n shape . Even if there is new shape for prado for 2024 the rado will surely more expensive . I choose the everest next gen
Love that everest...
Tengo una duda cual es mejor La Titanium o la Platino.Y por favor hagan reseñas en español no domino aún el ingles
Reliability part?
The Prado diesel has engine issues that are pretty much well known. Petrol engines are the way to go for the Prado, they're much more reliable. I don't know about the Everest though.
I'd take the Everest over Raptor if I had the money. Prado or any Land Cruiser line up are always expensive here. Ranging from MYR500k-MYR1m. (Raptor and Everest both cost under MYR300k).
I have made a booking for my Everest Titanium. Funny is that, my Everest wasnt even in my list. My dream for many years was a Volvo XC90.
Test driven it few months back, and what makes me to pull my handbrake from this car is because the ride was not comfortable at all despite having an air sus, the ride in the city especially in Malaysia road sway the car left and right, leaving my wife behind feels sick.
Then i went to view Palisade, i thought that this is it, im gonna get this car, it was so nice, and the seat was the definition of luxury and comfort. But one thing, just one thing that makes move on for the next car is that, well, im a family man, i bring my family including our old folks often, and here is the problem, central locking for palisade only available at driver side. Yes im fussy, sometimes we leave our kids and old parent just to drop by at the mart for a quick shopping, u wouldnt expect your elder to climb to the front to lock the door 😂. And looking at how the crime rate relating to car hijack etc, yeah, i have to pass palisade.
And there, beside hyundai showroom is the Ford, i test drive the Everest, and its perfect for me. Love it, of course, there are gain and losses, but hey, im the tallest in our the family, 167cm tall, so yes its perfect for the whole family.
My dad drive on ford Everest titanium 2023 too
The old Everest was far better than the Prado, the new one doesn't even compare, Toyota needs to lift its game quickly
But it’s based on a dual cab Ute and the rear leg room is ludicrous
😂
@@anthonyfarnan5935
Sure, but it’s still a good family car for adventure.
Ford Everest did good job, let us just appreciate .
This is an unfair comparison....its should be fortuner vs everest as those two are both based on pickups/ute/bakkie and the landcuriser is obviously based of a tank
Lots of reviewers complaining about ride quality on the Platininum.
I wonder if it's those low profile 21 inch tires causing the problems?
Yes. We have the trend, sport and titanium. Trend and titanium is with 20inch rims, while the sport with 18inch. The ride in 18inch is smoother than the others
@@ParachuteManiac lol, why do you have so many Everest?
@@farzana6676 well our version has less than in other country including australia. We have a total of 3 models. Philippines and thailand they have 4, while australia have 5 if im not mistaken. 😆
@@ParachuteManiac Loool, I'm sorry. I misunderstood you. I thought you meant you own a trend, sport and titanium
Land cruiser are built like tanks and it has tough suspension with safety features and future technology on it
Future technology? Not in toyota bru...still simple still tuff
Toyota is the same very old platform, not current 5 star rated vehicles should not be advertised against current 5star vehicles potentially putting peoples lives at risk. carsales is a toyota advertising platform.
Prado was released 13 years ago. I wonder how the prado is using future tech??
Why are Toyota service intervals in NZ 15000 kms or one year vs Australia 10000 kms and six months?
Prado has rear locker! GX in US doesn’t.
Disgusting how companies advertise poor safety standard vehicles against the current Leader in safety standards, don’t tell people the facts, same for GCM towing etc etc.
Driven both back to back, there is a premium, solid feel to the Prado that the Everest just doesnt have.
for me i will choose prado for sure.
Advantage to Prado with the manual handbrake and gear selector. If the power fails and conks out you can still stop and secure the car. With the Everest you can't use the electronic handbrake to stop, or even engage park, you're just along for the ride.
Why would you buy a car to think about how things will fail? And correct me if I'm wrong but you can switch the everest to manual and decrease your speed with the gears
@@fcwiid9037 Because when it comes to the crunch especially out of the city in an isolated area a more conventional designed car would be invaluable. Too much tech on modern cars are a hassle...
You are really searching for reasons to get a Prado if that is the best you can come up with.
Which one is best to buy land cruiser prado or ford everest platinun
you mean the almost improbable situation where your battery is dead, your alternator is shot and your foot brake fails? and somehow you assume that that scenario is more likely than the handbrake cable and foot brake fail at the same time on the Prado?
GREATJOB FORD!!
Parado anyday
How can you compare garbage to perfection
Which car you are calling garbage?
@@al-hudarahman7821 maybe prado lol=))
Still love the Prado
If only the Prado had a decent engine. I test drove one and it was gutless and floated about like a boat.
They are overpriced and ancient.
I guess you only get the diesel engine in your market. Some other markets get the 1GR-FE 4.0 V6 that makes decent horsepower (about 278hp). Or one could consider the Lexus GX460 (same platform) that replaces either of those engines with a 4.6 V8 with 301hp and 329 lb-ft torque. However, don't expect good fuel economy.
Yes the ford is perfect for trawling the burbs of the city in tow truck range for when it breaks down 😂.
I reckon you didn’t test drive one at all, just wanted to make an ill informed comment.
@@craigdavid6668 most definitely I found the 2020 Everest floated around more then the prado and was considerably slower never tested the new one but heard about the rangers breaking down frequently from new gearbox engine issues etc the prado may be supposedly ancient but it all works quite well.
@@ar12. or when the toyota sucks dust in and shits itself because toyota can’t even build an air box. As well as a unsafe 3 star vehicle under the new test platform unlike the Everest. Terrible GCM by toyota.
Too many new Rangers have failed. I'd be worried to get one vs a Prado.
1. This is an Everest video, not a Ranger video. 2. I'm in a 2022 Ranger group on Facebook and have never seen anyone complain about any major issues.
True. Everest. But quite similar to the Ranger. Australian buyers have logged issues with the displays and brakes. I'm not against them. Was even thinking of getting one. I love the tech in them, but I'm now a bit scared and will wait a bit longer for the kinks to be ironed out or for Toyota to bring the tech on the next gen Prado.
@@Josh92SA Check out Current Affairs FORD
Prado is a dinosaur needs a new model immediately and the ford to expensive for a low brand name 👍🇦🇺
Thumbs up Ford
I'll wait for the new Prado and see. Hopefully, it will be a 3.0L V6 with 180Kw and 600Nm, similar to the 2014 Land Rover Discovery, at the current price point - c'mon Toyota, you already had 10 years to catch up
Toyota milking Prado. I had 5 of current Prados, so bored that I ended up with 2023 Ranger wildtrak, though my new prado in line too, waiting…. I hope totally new Prado coming soon.
The only Prado that we get has Lexus badges and a 4.6L gasoline v8. This is considered a mid-size in North America.
New Prado in 2040 ?
@@PaulP580 New Prado in 2024!
New Prado is getting same 2.8l diesel. In Eastern Europe it is getting the old 2.7 petrol. Different engines in different regions.
The prado it's old model. I'm waiting for the New Prado model TNG-A.
The reviewer likes beige interiors. I can definitely tell😂
Ferrari traditional colours are Rosso exterior & Beige interior.
Everest
They need a Trd pro version in solar octane
To me Prado is the winner 🏆
Oh. What a feeling ...
What ever features the ford put forward but still it won't be as durable as Prado
Prado is a tough cookie .
We will see in 10 years time which one of these two will still be on the road...
You won’t need to test drive these cars to pick the right one. The material quality will tell you which car is the winner.
If Toyota is so reliable and durable why do i need to service it twice as many times as other vehicles and then why do i also need to pay a massive premium for such old technology…
True
Not to mention the whole dpf class action or dusting issues.
You have to service it twice as many because every oil is dead after 30.000km and it seems that only Toyota got it... The Prado is so reliable because the old technology is reliable and exists for years. New cars use to have alot of new stuff that hasn't proven it's reliability and the manufacturers only want to use new tech to impress their future clients. I sold my 3.0 Biturbo Audi for the Prado and don't regret it, the new german cars sadly have alot of engine problems.
If you have to ask those questions, you need to do more homework
@@evil2rs 👌
Prado for me, but in gxl trim.
Is that a 2012 prado ?
You do realise the Everest is built on a 2011 platform and chassis yeah?
Ford v6 vs toyota 2.8 wheres the v8 prado they dont show it against the v6 the power output wil be better than the ford v6
Hey 👋 the V8 Prado isn’t available in Australia.
Both of this engine are more than powerful they can be trusted for off-road and long distance and for locally 😍🥰🤗🤗🤗
must include mahindra scorpion in this comparision
brado🤙
For long term Quality Value obviously it's Prado, For Short Term it's Everest.
It’s no contest between these two,one is disposable and the the other is legendary for its durability,you cant mentioned them on the same breath!
Ford is Reliable not just Toy Ota. Remember who Invented car first???? It was Ford the man and the machine. Toy ota and other vehicle just copy Ford.
@@sealoftheliving4998 LoL, more than a century in the business and still producing lemons cars…I admire their tenacity for failure 😂😂😂
@@sealoftheliving4998 Karl Benz would disagree
@@sealoftheliving4998 The only thing that Ford is reliable at is reliably start and end at the repair shop.
Ford still nice
I don't like that cars you review why is the steering wheel is in left sided
My money on toyota...everytime
No centre console fridge in everest.. best option in prado!
you know that you’re comparing an Everest to a Land Cruiser that is legendary right ? Not even a comparison in my opinion.
The prado interior looks too dated
Too bad you could do a ten year overall test-the Toyota will win on reliability and resale
Everest Platinum
xc90 t8 blows both clear out of the water
Neither of them are “large”! They are mid size 4WD wagons.
They're classified as large, in Australia at least. Might be a different case in the US
@@carsales They are small here in the US. The Ranger Raptor is a little baby Raptor.
For the big fat muricans
@@farzana6676eah trying getting a dodge 3500 on a trail....you can't and most suvs we have here in USA not unless you get some work done on them..they ain't going past the mall😂😂😂😂.....that's why Tacoma is so popular today ..it's rugged and goes everywhere you want......an escalade is not going in the woods ever or even a Chevy suburban,Ford expedition.....you can tow to the truck stop but not the woods
@@dt1wach206 If you want to do trails you get yourself a wrangler.
Why do all reviewers make so many excuses for Toyota? The Prado interior looks so dated its not funny
Its like that so it looks and operates like new in 20 years time. That ford will be in the junk yard in 10 years, the Toyota will be still be towing caravans up mountain's
@@flyingrc2041 then buy a second hand one!
@@flyingrc2041 such a poor excuse for outdated equipment
@Travis Walsh or the majority of people who pay top dollar for a used Toyota must be stupid. Everyone must be stupid just not you 🤣
@@flyingrc2041 I mean they kinda are stupid, hey!
ANTHONYNASH HI
"Winner not entirely clear cut". You are kidding aren't you?
technology wise, ford has advantage over toyota but in terms of reliability and durability, toyota will win.
Why are you driving in the passenger side?
That’s how we do it in Australia.
Always PRADO
i tell you what ,
To get it clear all that way
if get or to have a Toyota Prado in my country you’re considered or been seen by all standards of society a proud person to know and a successful one too .
And that is undeniable good feeling to have and you would get from your colleagues acquaintances friends and family.
in other words you would be in every person that know you in there contact list
with that i say it all .
I have had a few Land Cruisers , an 80 and a couple of 200s , have always spat at a prado , drive a full size Range Rover diesel v8 , would definately look at the Ford Everest as a replacement or a cruiser 300 , never a prado .
Nobody who’s owned a 200 has decided to change to a Range Rover, maybe the other way around, I don’t think you’ve owned any of the cars you claim.
Yeah I don't believe you either....
Ford Everest is better in all points 💪
We don't get them in the US. Were stuck with the very mediocre unibody Explorer.
If you like tech go for Ford, that’s all about it.
@@Pato-ml7nt motor and gearbox is way better on the Everest.
@@electrikoptik you can place an order for a bronco and wait and wait
fortuner Vs Everest Vs Xander Vs nessan terra
So many comments here from people who have never owned both 😅
Ford 👍💪💪
Orite, fair enough
Ha ha, wir nehmen den Ford 👍.. auch kein Nissan.
The fact of the matter is the Prado is a class higher than the Everest but still not a better car, the direct rival to the Everest in the Toyota range is the Fortuner🤦🏾♂️… which won’t even hold a candle to this Everest
Problem with Toyota is they have no idea how to make cars look good. The Prado just needs a quality facelift with modern tech interior it would be the best in class again.
Ford products are shut before Toyota
I m in one of the ford ranger groups, seems lots issue with the new ranger.😂 how often you see a20 years old ford on road compared to Toyota lol..they are boring and handle like boat but it last for a decade and cheap to run.
What's this got to do with the 2022 Ford Everest & Prado?
@@Josh92SA the fact that the Toyota will tow the Ford to the junk yard in 10 years time.
Prado will stay top 🎉🎉
Toyota hands down for reliability
I test drove 3 cars last week . Both these 2 . The Toyota Prado was horrible . It was like driving a boat . No comparison, any one who says the Prado is even close are saying it for the wrong reasons, money talks.
What were you even expecting it to feel like? 😂 it's not a sports sedan or a crossover.
@@luiss5648 for starters - I expect it to feel and drive well for a $100,000 plus vehicle - certainly doesn’t steer as good as a Everest / Ranger .
Toyota yes
Honestly I'd prefer to pick up a 2 year old VW Touareg with 3 years of remaining warranty...much better to drive than either of these two...as long as its not going to be used as a full on touring vehicle of course.
Even with that warranty you’ll be furious when you’re getting it repaired every 8 weeks……
@@craigdavid6668 Touregs are fine if maintained and driven properly.
@@anthonyfarnan5935 Ah, so don’t tow, warm it up, don’t exceed 2000rpm and don’t drive in summer, no worries👍
@@craigdavid6668 this test specifically excluded towing.
Yes new Prado is releasing soon. But rest assure the new Kakadu model will be over $100k driveaway. Then with the new price range the comparison will be Land Rover defender, which is better by miles. It really makes no sense to go for Prado unless you have strong love for Toyota.
Or a strong love for resale, reliability, functionality, capability and not being an absolute tosser in a Land Rover I guess……
@@craigdavid6668 Having owned both I can tell you the Defender is ridiculously capable and no one is a 'tosser' for driving that or any other car. As for resale, the Defenders all are worth more second hand than new because people want them and cant get them... Your only point that probably holds true is reliability, but lots of people are happy to drive a less reliable vehicle that is more exciting. To each their own I say!
I owned a previous generation Ranger and Everest. Sagging suspension in the Ranger, grinding sensation in the steering. The build quality was just not there for me with either vehicle. I got a 2021 prado and it leaves them for dead. This comparison is not fair as you are comparing a vehicle with loads more power. Drop a 3.0 litre turbo six in the prado and do a comparison (Everest who?). Regardless of price I would go a prado over a Everest any day of the week. Even if it’s 20-30k more because you know it’s not going to have issues. Everest looks good but quality does not lie!
Perhaps you should be complaining to Toyota about the motor then... they've only got themselves to blame for charging for the badge on the front. They refuse to update their gear, and it's starting to cost them. Playing your game, Ford should just drop a supercharged V8 in it and one up them again. Where does it end?? Can only compare what is sold.
And FYI my uncle had a Kakadu, nice enough car, but needing a new engine at 145,000km doesn't seem like reliability to me...
New Rangers and Everests are already having major issues, and you're complaining about your uncles prado motor needing replacement.
Good luck with getting anywhere near that many kilometres on an Everest with major problems.
