These two vehicles are among the most rugged yet family-friendly SUVs on the market: the 2016 Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and the 2016 Toyota Fortuner.
Both are diesel-powered, both are priced close to one another in the trim levels we have here - the Mitsubishi being the flagship Pajero Sport Exceed, and the Toyota being the mid-spec Fortuner GXL - and both are here so we can see which we would recommend as the best rugged off-road family vehicle at this price point…

and again mitsubishi wins this comparison as usual, great job mitsubishi.
The Boogeyman : try to ask about the safety & reliability record before giving your comment. Your Mitsubishi may have win some areas but in the long run, Toyota still prevails because again I think this might sound irritating to the ears of Mitsubishi lovers, but safety and reliability plus durability and dependability has been part of Toyota. That is why, Toyota is still the largest car manufacturer because of its long term vision compared to your Mitsubishi who is good for just a couple number of years.
Isn't that the only argument Toyota owners use every time other brand/models eats a Toyota? Jusui Zonaid
@@disco.lemonade Cause thats what matters the most i think...Watch scotty talking about how Mitsubishi makes one of the worst engines
@@streamvision145 that old fart is a die hard toyota fan: 100% biased. i travel a lot to 3rd world countries with shitty road conditions and granted, you see lots of toyotas there especially in rent a cars but guess what, you also see lots of Mitsus. im talking about the pajero/pajero sport and the outlanders. and they aren't even close to be cheap. why they dont sell in the us i don't know. look at suzuki... probably at the same level as toyota in 4x4 and engine quality, and hey you dont see 'em any more around here. toyota, suzuki and mitsubishi are those brands rent a cars trust there, so you tell me
@@disco.lemonade yea bruv i mean i watched reviews about other off-road contests and about 60% of them toyota fans were getting butt hurt i mean c'mon guys toyota isnt the worlds best brand so
fork off
Test drove both, Pajero has the best suspension with more features at a lower price, it's very tiring driving the Fortuner even on city roads.
I had the Pajero for a year now and I'm very happy with it.
The handling on the rural Thai roads is just amazing. The smaller Toyota we had b4, I had to slow down on many corners that wore bumpy. With Pajero I can keep full speed.
I'm always in control and the car does what I want it to do. Love it!
BTW, the third row seats are adjustable;)
It was the lack of the safety features in the Toyota that made us choose the Pajero. Never regret that choice
I drove the 2wd for 500 km over New Year. I like it but found it a little soft for my taste, especially on rough roads and going around corners. maybe the 4wd would handle better with more weight in the front. If I were to buy it I would change the shocks to 8 level adjustable profender monotube shocks (cost about 32,000 baht)
@@mathsunmasked56
Mine is also 2WD and I would not say it's soft like the suspension in a Cadillac, no. It is comfy ride yes however, it performs very well in high speed (motorway at 140-150 km/h) and on rough roads in rural thai-roads and taking corners. I drove some rally cars in my youth, so I push the cars limits more than average person would do:). I have control of the car like I never had with the Toyota we had b4. Car is pretty much exactly 1 year old now and soon time for 40.000km service. Yes, I do drive a lot and I love it:). Got a speeding ticket a couple of weeks ago. Crap, it blow my budget, 300Baht*LOL*
Cheers
mitsu has more efficient engine, tried and tested reliability.. i like it!
Edward Reyez I think it's the other way around 🤔
@@lanpatrick7182 not really, the 4d56t has been around for donkeys years and I have never had one fail, compare that to the new 2.8 that's worse on fuel, has a dpf issue and has aluminium valve bodies which warp an seize sending the engine to destination fucked if it gets a bit too hot
Definitely agree that's why I purchased a Mitsubishi Montero Sport (Pajero Sport) instead of Toyota Fortuner. It is more practical.
Maria Anna Tan , Mitsubishi is winning!!! is heavy machine is better 4x4 DNA and suspension off road many years !!!
one of the best suv ever, Pajero Sport
mitsubishi has "the best" suspension. hands down! up to the safety features and newest engine. pajero/montero sport is the better option here.
That Mitsubishi is a real looker.
CentralObs
A: Hey look that's Pajero Sport
B: You mean 2018 CR-V with Mitsu badge? fix your eyes mate
Hyper Vanilo or 2016 pajero sport with Honda badge lol.
In your dreams
You like those rear tail lights?! It's ass looks like a spaceship. Give me the Fortuna exterior with Pajero everything else and we'd be on a winner!
pajero is born with a offroading DNA ... no need to compare
shanazirk well said
Its based on the ute.
So true, i hope they make new facelift with the rear though, its very hideous
Exactly
Idk about it tho in my country the Pajero is different from the Montero, which is shown in the vid. Also, the Montero now is being called Pajero Sport in other countries.
Well, kinda doubting the old montero with its l300 modified engine. Thats just me. Idk about the new one.
the best thing about mitsu 4wd system is they offer 4h mode that allows you drive in all wheel without locking differentials.
Always like watching your reviews. Keep up the good work guys!
Thanks for watching!
I watched the previous comparison and really couldn't understand how yourll picked the fortuner . Now it makes sense . Better than that i ignored your review and went and got my self a pajero sport 😀
+dhanu347 Nice one!
Finally, a show for car buyers. It helps us find the best value for our money. Keep it up! 😁
I recently (July 2020) bought Pajero Sport exceed version. I had full choice between Mitsubishi Pajero Sport, Toyota Fortuna, Isuzu MUX. Engine and ride in Mitsubishi was real selliing point. That and options in exceed version plus the brilliant Super Select II 4wd system, which makes a fool like me look good when it gets tough.
Watched the video for 8 min and have no idea about the look of Dashboard! Bravo 👏!
Based on many reviews we didn’t even bother with the Fortuna. Tested the Holden Trailblazer earlier this year, and more recently the Isuzu MU-X and Mitsubishi Pajero Sport. While the way the PS tethers a child seat is odd, the comfort, safety, technology, and off road options beat the MU-X by a mile. Obviously Trailblazer is no longer available - but PS definitely beat that too. Value is amazing. No contest really in my opinion. We can’t wait to pick ours up soon!!! I’m coming from a Holden Colorado LS-X MY2015 - the fact that I can hear myself think in the PS due to reduced noise, and doesn’t feel like I’m sitting on a plank of wood will be a welcome change.
About damn time you made a video of these two.
Paul and Matt are so good together.
Oh... you mean the cars? Yes, they are good too.
CarAdvice.com I was honestly referring the cars, but yes, they are also good reviewers. 👍haha
i too was thinking of that .......
finally a fair compare i was waiting for it !! thank you guys for the review and the compare im always says the pajero sport 2016 is better than the fortuner both are good names but if u talk about the price here in my country we have the v4 and v6 of both of those cars but the problem is the price of fortuner v4 same the price of the pajero sport v6 !! and the v6 fortuner more fantasy price better to get land cruser if u add more ... so about me i will chose the pajero ^^
you guys make the best videos and do the most honest reviews.
love from india ❤
+Amulya gupta Thanks!
Didn't expect the outcome but good and clear. Thanks.
Mitsubishi needs to bring this to the usa, they need a image overhaul.
i think it's useless cuz there's the ford expedition and the explorer the two fav suv in the US
the pajero sport is available in the US, it even says it on the US website
i like the pajero sport and I'm just afraid of the SUA problem
Sean Tabada SUA not REAL!!
yup SUA are not real.
.Toyota's dependability is unmatched..and it tends to retain the market value better. Nice aggressive design...love it...
toyotas are great for long term use but unfortunately most are terribly under equipped
dennis cheruiyot what equipment?
mohd shakir brah the base model comes with the ugliest looking Steel wheels
"toyotas are great for long term use" this statement is subject specially if toyota is only offering 4 years worth of warranty and mitsu 5 years.
agree base model sucks hahahaha
dennis cheruiyot not all toyota models are tough..
great review, keep it coming!
Thanks!
Amazing comparison video, not sure about that thumb ring Paul.
It's better than his other one...
We own a 5 seat Pajero Sport Exceed, lovely car for both on and off road and going to the tip, gearbox is nice for the daily and just looks gorgeous with the DRLs, she was the perfect replacement for our 2003 DHD Pajero Exceed; we did consider the fortuna while looking for a replacement for the old girl.
Great review and comparison as always blokes, both good cars for the great southern land.
WIlhelm , I have had mine for 12 months now, I got the base model 5 seater because I don't need the extra rear seats getting in the way or the extra electronic do dads. I can honestly say it was a wise choice, good value for money, good warranty and after sales service, very quiet and comfortable on and off road, very economical to run, it is actually more comfortable and uses less fuel than my Holden SV6 Sportwagon it replaced. On highway trips fuel consumption can drop down to as low as 7.2 L/100klm and towing my heavy tandem work trailer it averages 11 L/100klm. My only gripe is the paint seems very thin, after a few off road trips there are signs of bushes rubbing along the sides that seem to have rubbed through the top coat, also the metal body panels seem very thin and can dint very easily. Other than that I am very happy and glad I chose the Mitsy Sport. 👍

Great video! I have a Outlander and would love to upgrade to the Pajero Sport one day. Looks an amazing car!!
Nicely presented . Good work
Mitsubishi by far!! We have in our family and old Pajero, brand new from 1990 still running like time hasn't passed, simply amazing we trust Mitsubishi over Toyota.
Jaice Alejandro wow its a 29 year old car
I am very happy with my Outlander but I so want the Pajero Sport. Sadly it is not available here in Europe.
you guyz are doing great job.
keep up the good work! 👍
I note in the comments that some viewers claim the Toyota is dearer because of reliability, however I bought three Pajeros, one after the other, ending with the 2004 model and I found them super reliable. I have been driving German cars since 2006 because they have far softer suspensions which I need for my ruined back. From watching this show, I would be prepared to test drive the new Pajero, in the hope that the suspension has improved enough for my bad back. In my experience I have found the German cars ride better and have superior engines but overall reliability is definitely in the Japanese camp.
2:30 those third row passengers should just be happy we actually have somewhere to put them😀😀
I was expecting for the Pajero's rear design to grow on me but hasn't happened yet, still finding it somewhat strange.
As an owner/driver, you will not have to look at it - it should not be a concern to you. Only those behind you will have to suffer it.
I bought one . . . not for the way it looks from behind.
Thanks to this video,Now I know what I'm gonna buy
I like these two guys doing car reviews
Thanks. Can we have a head to head with Pajero Sport and Ford Everest? Kindly refer me the link if it is already there.
Mitsubishi always win, this Mitsubishi sport design i think is the best looking SUV in the market so far. Very nice review guys.
I wished Mitsubishi should have lost, since how they design cars are now very awful. Toyota should have won this test.
I love that caradvice superdry jacket. I dont suppose its available anywhere is it?
Great vid bros
When it comes to looks I still choose the Fortuner. And it also has an incredible features. Pajero on the other hand is best off road.
Love to see Mistabishi Pajero Sport vs Ford Endeavour 2016
chetan mehta and Mitsubishi is the winner!!!
chetan mehta and Ford is the winner!!!
Good review !
Hi Guys,
Just want to know where did you guys film that i would like to take my Pajero up into the bush so please let me know where you guy filmed that.
Thanks Jai
I'm a Toyota fanatic, but I miss having the Pajero/Montero in the US. Mitsubishi isn't doing too well up here.
ThatGearHead here too their sales having been going down for years they need to put more features into their cars.
Hing holo
ThatGearHead because american doesnt mind petrol and pollutuon cars create.. they like gas guzzler cars..
Now that they're shifting to an all crossover/suv strategy in the US, and they have investment from Nissan, they might just bring the Montero Sport back to the states. I know I would consider buying one if they did.
ac12311 they already did on México, but it comes with the 3.0l petrol engine that makes only 216hp and like 210lbs-ft of torque
The pajero sport in the third row the view is just the same bro and fortuner was the best and the coolest thumbs up if you agree
Great video
Both are the best, but i love the silver colour on the Pajero and it's air-conditioner
The reason fortuner exists is caused by brand toyota.
tsk it aint funny nigga
Hahahaha, now it's funny!
@guru gara well said
u mean god exist because god said so?
I am so excited are 2016 Pajero sport will be received on next 2 or 3 weeks
Rommel Louie Asri how is ur experience with it ?
Does anyone know if the montero or pajero sport have a tow hitch? I haven't seen any with and I want to put on a bike carrier for a dirt bike. If it doesn't, is there a way to professionally install one on there?
Hey car advice what would be the price of a 2018 GLS model?
and I thought the Pajero Sport was a bad SUV
good job Mitsubishi!
At that price point there's no doubt the PS is the better option.
Exceptional ride for the Pajero Sport/Montero Sport/ Shogun Sport. Rides like a car. I love the rear lights.
Most people hate them but I agree, think they look great.
what is that engine which revs when car advice logo appears?
agreed with the reviewer..pajero sport rocks..!
you can get a good pajero for like 35k, with leather heated seats, multimedia, and auto transmission, at that price point you can only get a gas engine manual toyota with no multimedia
Can you disclose the location this video was shot in please? Looks like the blue mountains....is it?
Friendly blokes and nice review, what’s not to like.
Just want to inform you guys, few of the South East Asian Fortuner got transmission problem. It's jerky to shift from P to D, and sometimes there's a clanking sound from the transmission. Are you guys experiencing it there in Australia?
got the same problem with my fortuner but in aussie they use 2.8 liter engine not 2.4 liter we got here in Indonesia and Malaysia but now my Toyota already fix this problem on my car
tokekkk i agree my friends has a problem to his fortuner
tokekkk i think it also in indonesian market too
tokekkk Ford wins this issue. They're the number one when it comes to transmission problem
Hi All own a 2016 Fortuner , I tell you now no issues here in Australia with gearbox, 8 months ago I completed 8000km trip from Sydney to Darwin, Kakadu towing a Camper Trailor, cruised beautifully along our freeways,I tell you now I had my doubts if I should of bought a Prado, but tell you now Fortuner perfect vehicle power to weight ratio , had no real issues, waded perfectly across East alligator River, only thing I did when we got back to Sydney I booked it in for Service Toyota to dump oil & water coolant flush, but all good.
have tried driving both automatic trannys of both SUV and i kind of like the 8 speed from Mitsubishi. so ill go with Montero Sport. or Pajero Sport.
oh i see that u are a man of culture as well.. the Montero
@@PasalaKool In a whole continent of LatinAmerica, in Spain and the Philippines it's called Montero, cause Pajero means wanker
Pros with Mitsubishi SUVs over Toyota: has better on and off road balance and less risk of rolling over if ever you lose your steering control or have a puncture at high speed. All the new Toyota's are notorious for this instability. This has got to be the most important thing SAFETY. Fuel economy Mitsubishi is top here. Alot more comfortable. Cons: once you have an engine problem with a new Mitsubishi that's the end, one problem will lead to another and you'll end up spending your entire life savings fixing one thing after another, any third Generation and above Pajero owner here I'm sure can agree to this FACT! Loads of experienced Toyota mechanics, not so much the case with Mitsubishi. Parts also way more expensive and harder to find than Toyota.
Toyota: Pros: Reliability. Better resale price. Spares more readily available and often cheaper than Mitsubishi. Cons: Watch those curves at high speed, many have had accidents whilst driving at high speed around curves and high speed into puddles.
Don't get me wrong but Mitsubishi SUVs are amazing yes but once they start having engine problems they can teach you a thing or two about life's uphill battles.
Wilhelm Hesse You’re wrong at the Toyota part men, The Mitsubishi is actually Cheaper with way above safety and tops specs, Unlike the fortuner Way more expensive lacks out of safety and specs.😇 P.S. I’m not triggered
Halogen headlights? In India we get full LED headlights and taillights with an electric opening boot
Pajero/Montero Sport is the best!
Toyota Fortuner is my dream car but i after watching this video ... i'l be buying the pajero ...
Triskelis by
Buy a Fortuna mate, you will regret it after driving the PS and it continually changes gear due to its small engine and eight speed gear box,
Why?
yaaaay
if you do a comparison, pls do so with both top-of-the-line variants.
Paul was really itching for that cuppa.
do everest vs pajero
Mitsubishi!!!
yaaaay i love mitsubishi as well :D
Why don't we have these in America! These cars are beautiful!
I just hope they will redesign the rear part of mitsu, that's just what's holding me back.
Its a great car the pajero sport !!
im getting a pajero sport :)
I like Toyota Cars like Land Cruiser Prado 2018. It is so cool
price is x2 - x3 for LC compared to Montero/pajero
Well done good for you
THIS IS THE REAL PAJERO czcams.com/video/XBL8p2PO9OI/video.html
In this Video that mitsubishi is a Montero sports
I own PS 6B31, but I love both :)
Hi guys. Great review. Where are the locations you took this??
Australia
You need to compare the top spec fortuner with the pajero sport
+Gabriel Jose Garcia Why?
they compare cars based on price range not model
walang 4x2 G o V variant sa australia puro 4x4.
Aye because they're definitely price competitive there...
is there a sunroof in the pajero?
yess in there is,the GT model
Aditya Pareek yeah depends on the variations
Hi, can you provide the comparison of fortune and Isuzu Mu7
In terms of durability, u can't beat a Mitsubishi, 7 years driving my Pajero NT till today, nothing mechanically needs to be fixed. My late PA Challenger last about 8 years without an issue before I auto auctioned it. My 1993 diesel SWB Pajero is still running on its original auto transmission. U can't comment on a Mitsubishi long lterm, if I don't own one for long term, and I own 3 Mitsubishi long term. They are less refine in terms of interior n comfort, but if u service them properly every year , they are very very very durable.
SH I wow
Fortuner has a jerky transmission.
Allthough I like its exterior, Pajero sport is just better in terms of performance.
No it is not??????
ilove my mitsubishi
Love my Pajero/Shogun/Montero Sport 😍
Could you please name the background music at 6:47.... love you guys ♥️
I made the right choice then!
1Life Resist what was it ?
pajero
me too. just bought mine today lol PS 2017
congrats bruv
which one has better suspension?
Pajero Sport
+Reggie Mariano for comfy?
Pajero Sports has a better suspension and best off road technology
Space Monkey. Mitsubishi!!! many years off road DNA , better 4x4, better suspension!!! Toyota only cars but mitsubishi is everywhere in the sea land air and space!!! looks mitsubishi heavy industrial, electric, robotics nuclear defence air 5generetion and space!!! very huge company!!! the best machine and engines!!!
they also have an electronics, electric motors like starters & alternators & elevators. The 1st atomic was dropped to Mitsubishi Aircraft Engine factory in hiroshima japan. They are really great brand/make.
Sadly, all pajero / pajero sport in New Zealand have no rear diff lock. I heard that you cannot install front bull bar to pajero sport too as it is not compatible with those fancy safety equipment.
can you guys make one comparing the pajero sport and the ford everest ?
How about a pajero sport vs. ford everest?
+Rishabh Sood - sounds like a good plan! Stay tuned.
CarAdvice.com why not use the V variant of fortuner vs PS?
Rotor Venture Do you mean the Crusade variant?
R
wow i will buy Mitsubishi thank you
I want to buy one of them guys...
Who's the best? Quality and desing please answer me
in malysia, they didn't bring new generation Mitsubishi pajero sport.. but they did bring new generation fortuner. frankly speaking i love the old pajero, my wife used owned the 1997 2.8 intercooler turbo version which still incredibly good but 2 thing i hate when transmission broke down, its cost a lot of money and fuel consumption isn't that great... now she owned a mpv car which is fuel saving and low cost maintenance but she said, she miss the powerful engine pajero used to offered which enable her to drive in any situation
Pajero is born for off roading😉☺
I dont like Pajero's rear design..... if they change something like Fortuner has than I'll buy next day....
dshiningsword some people love it, some people dont. in my own perspertive the design was something futuristic that would distinguish among the rest. :-)
dshiningsword
Yeah I'll have to agree with you on this
Yeah, the tail end is ugly, or should i say an acquired taste.
dshiningsword but the body is thin
dshiningsword no
Manage to get a Crusade model for 52600K. Thanks to your recommendation guys
3:16 so awesome!!
I would've never thought Lil Mitsubishi Could've beat Mighty Toyota at anything.
Pajero is my favorite
No surprise. How many Dakars has Mitsi won? I have a jacked up 2013 challenger. The things a beast off road and not all bad on the blacktop. So under rated.
2:04 how are you supposed to close the trunk with it like that
