2017 Mitsubishi Montero GLX MT or 2017 Toyota Innova 2.8G MT

**coffeelover** · May 17th, 2017 12:51 PM

Hi Guys,

I know it's not an apple-to-apple comparison between the two. Actually, I'm leaning towards the Innova since this is really what I wanted but just few days ago I asked my friend who is Sales person at MIT and learned that the Montero GLX (entry level) almost the same price that of Innova 2.8G MT. Since I've been a toyota owner (vios, altis), I'm quite familiar with maintenance cost of toyotas. I'm not familiar with Mitsubishi, I just want to know the following:
1. Which is costly to maintain between the two?
2. How much (average) cost do you spend for Preventive Maintenance Services in casa (say 1km, 5km, 10Km) for Montero.
3. In the long run, which is easier to maintain assuming I'll be keeping the vehicle for 10-15 years.

Can you please give me the other pros and cons between the two that i have not mentioned above. Your inputs will be greatly appreciated.

More power and God bless.

1. Which is costly to maintain between the two? - halos parehas lang, yung aftersales support lamang ang Toyota
2. How much (average) cost do you spend for Preventive Maintenance Services in casa (say 1km, 5km, 10Km) for Montero.
3. In the long run, which is easier to maintain assuming I'll be keeping the vehicle for 10-15 years. - parehas lang, may mga taiwan parts na yan

like in the other thread... both are new. cost should be almost the same.

the innova would cost lesser in the long run. because the fc difference is huge..

The Toyota Innova is a better all around car ... more comfortable ride ... cheaper maintenance (as long as you know what to exclude from the add-ons) ... if you're comfortable with a Toyota then stay with Toyota ... going over to the other side might not be a pleasant experience ...

Thank you all for your inputs... Appreciate it. Pardon my ignorance because I never had the experience of having a Mitsubishi vehicle. I know it's really a huge amount of money for investing a vehicle.

Thank you again and more power!

8-seater vs. 7-seater
comfort vs. porma

bigger tires => more expensive

If you're going to shell out a large amount of money, why not go for Montero? Baka manghinayang ka sa pera mo. A few hundred Ks nalang oh.

Anyway, with this comparison, I will go with Montero anytime of the day.

Am in a similar dilemma and the Innova is a 3rd choice between Montero and Fort.
Innova is being considered not because it has a lower price(Small difference lang naman) but the fact is operating cost will sure be lower than the two by around 30% as per my research.

Go for SUV. It'll be more rewarding.
