Fortuner 2.5G vs Montero Sport GLS 4x2

[jut703]

Sir ano po mas ok sa dalawa? Usually po kasi yung mga comparo dito ng Fort at MS yung 3.2 DiD pati yung 3.0 D4D eh. Kamusta naman po tong dalawang low-end versions? Ano po ba mas ok? Primary consideration po yung engine performance pati ride comfort. Tas siguro FC narin (pero I assume halos pareho lang).

Yung Fort kasi 102 HP lang tapos 260 Nm torque. Yung MS mukhang mas malakas 134 HP tapos 314 Nm torque. Both have the max hp at around 3500 rpm and torque at around 2000 rpm. Pero madami po ako nabasa kahit mababa specs ng Fort on paper ok naman daw. Pero how does it compare to the MS?

Thanks guys. :D

Both has its each pros and cons. But for me, i`d get the MS.

Montero Sport

Pros:
> this has a better interior design than the fortuner
> this has a well, much more reliable diesel engine than of the fortuner
> has a better riding comfort
> slower in acceleration but faster in terms of top speed

Cons:
> engine sound is loud
> has well, problems too

Fortuner

Pros:
> better overall exterior design
> cheaper maintenance
> faster in acceleration

Cons:
> harsh ride
> the interior is soo beige-ish

slower in acceleration but faster in terms of top speed

Even the 2.5L versions of both SUVs? I've read this comment alot regarding the 3-liter versions and it sounds plausible since the MS is heavier giving it a disadvantage at standing starts, but not having a speed limiter (unlike the Fortuner which has the standard IMV limit of 180 kph) gives it a higher top speed.

For the lower displacements, however, doesn't the additional power and torque give the MS a performance advantage over the Fort in rektahan and arangkada? :D

has a better riding comfort

About this, they recently launched a 'new' Fortuner, which primarily boasts of improved suspension (obviously a response to the MS). Doesn't this level the playing field when it comes to ride quality?

Price difference? Php1,468,000.00 vs Php1,345.00.00. A difference of more than 100K makes the monty more easy choose over the Fort. You can get the 2.5 4X4 m/t with that price.

The Fort has been here for more than 3 years, next christmas and you're old.

There's now an M/T Fort for P1.349M.

But it's not there on the website.......

Modified Montys are really catching my eyes these days, especially with subtle bodykits.

That thing won't save the Fortuner against the Montero Sport cause its likely that MMPC will release a 4X2 M/T GLS variant pretty soon.. That would be way cheaper than the overrated Fortuner...

Bought a fortuner last near after a sales at diamond motors qa thought i did not have money to buy the montero. I love the cup holders on the fortuner and the top mounted Aircon vents for the rear seats. Now that montero has done the same, must have to get me one also...
