Hi, would also like to seek advice regarding the same choices, below are my thoughts:

Situation: Current car, City, has 3 months baby that is why we are considering getting a new ride, it seems the city has not much room. Planning to keep the car for 8-10 yrs.

BRV - considering the S variant
pros: easier to drive, stability control is standard, high chance that it is reliable (currently have a 2010 city and no issues)
cons: gas is more expensive, has less space
other: Savings in SRP can be used for fuel but I think space will be compromised as we have a 3 months old baby and when traveling car will be occupied by me, wife, yaya, baby in car seat, mother in law, stroller and diaper bag.

Innova - considering the E variant or should I go G (PPV price point)
pros: diesel, space, based on what I read more comfortable than PPVs, easier to drive compared to PPVs? Toyota reliability? Toyota has cheapest maintenance cost among diesels?
cons: maintenance cost of diesel engine (but savings in fuel can help), wifey is not sold on the looks, less features, no stability control (do we really need this for tall cars?)
other: Is the issue regarding jerking already fixed on newer batches? Will I have a big adjustment coming from sedan?

Fortuner - considering the G variant
pros: diesel; for me has the best looks, wifey also likes the looks, Toyota reliability? Toyota has cheapest maintenance cost among diesels?
cons: matagtag (is this really night and day compared to city? or is it overrated?), maintenance cost of diesel engine (but savings in fuel can help), less features, no stability control (do we really need this for tall cars?), tires are more enpensive
other: Is the issue regarding jerking already fixed on newer batches? Will I have a big adjustment coming from sedan?

Montero - considering the GLS variant
pros: best speced engine, more features than Innova and Fortuner, from what I read it is the most comfortable PPV, easiest to drive among PPVs?
cons: maintenance maybe is more expensive than toyota, rear and rear quater is not that appealing, no stability control (do we really need this for tall cars?), tires are more enpensive, reliability?
other: is it reliable? family had the previous montero it seems that maintenance is expensive and after 5 yrs they sold it because of emerging issues, they had the GLS SE variant. Will I have a big adjustment coming from sedan?

Everest - considering the Trend variant
pros: also has the most comfortable ride, best speced among the choices, has almost complete safety features, we like the looks
cons: maintenance maybe is more expensive than toyota, tires are more expensive, reliability
others: still not sold of having a Ford for long term ownership, my brother already have the same variant. Will I have a big adjustment coming from sedan?

Should I also consider CUVs or other PPVs? Max budget is 1.5M.

Thanks in advance for the input.
