    Is third row space a primary requirement? Most of these PPVs can’t accommodate 2 adults in the third row and when third row is used, you have limited cargo space. The Santa Fe and Sorento are good unibody 7-seater midsize SUVs but also have cramped 3rd row seats.

    If you want something practical to haul 7 people, get an Innova if you like how it looks. It has the same grunt as the Fortuner (2.8L turbo Diesel engine) but cheaper. The Kia Grand Carnival is also one good package for a people hauler.

    If you ask me, for around that budget of 2.5M, I would get one badass-looking SUV with lots of space and grunt, an Explorer.

    Have ridden all of these PPVs. All can accommodate 2 adults in the 3rd row. Unless you're really, really fat or tall.

    The Innova is barely bigger than a Fortuner with its 3rd row. Just a higher seat position and maybe an inch or two extra legroom. So if you "can't accommodate adults" in a PPV, you can't accommodate them in an Innova too.

    The Explorer is also cramped for the 3rd row because of the thick (very comfy) seats.

    In the showroom the Explorer offers better interiors and seems bigger inside than the Everest. It is better than on the Sorento and Santa Fe.

    In the case of our previous gen Sorento (2010), once the 3rd row is used, cargo space is limited to bags and other personal effects. No more coolers, golf bags, big grocery cartons, etc. We recently went out on a road trip and the Sorento was limited to a 5-seater as we brought a lot of stuff. The other 4 people and other stuff had to be ridden in the FXT.

    Yes bro, the Explorer's interior is bigger and definitely better. But 3rd row space is not optimized because the seats are very thick so you're robbed of very precious legroom.


    Using a PPV and its 7 seats will really limit your cargo. But it's useful for quick weekend getaways. Last weekend I was on an out of town trip with 6 other friends. Since our CRV doesn't have a 3rd row, I had to use a Starex. Our luggage would've fit in the CRV (just backpacks) though.

    for 7passenger get the kia carnival 7 seater. no more problem for passenger comfort and cargo space. its a very spacious and versatile van compared to ppv and suv. cons lang if you often go to offroad.

    With the new Explorer to be released before June, Ford will surely have very big discounts on their existing inventory of current gen Explorers.

    However, with the price of gas nearing 60 per litre, the 3.5L V6 turbo is not a good proposition. The base trim with the 2.3L 4-cylinder turbo (270hp/400Nm) might be something more acceptable.

    Not so sure about reliability but there are a lot of Explorers on the road.

    Big SUVs with gas engines always have low resale value, even more so if the brand is not Toyota. Hahahaha

    Parts availability is the culprit [emoji23] [emoji23]
