Pros and Cons

  • Positives
  • Negatives
Mahindra XUV500
  • All variants are feature rich. Thanks to its large dimensions and muscular design it has a lot of road presence.
Toyota Fortuner
  • Features like ventilated seats, new 8-inch touch screen, front parking sensors help the old dated features fist
  • The Legender is a stylish option for those happy with their urban roots
  • More power and torque and e-diff lock add to its already impressive 4×4 off-road cred
  • Multiple transmission and engine options still present give buyers a lot to choose from
Mahindra XUV500
  • Interior fit and finish isn’t the best. Third-row is cramped and with all seats up there is barely any luggage room left.
Toyota Fortuner
  • Price takes a big jump up
  • Still no sunroof
  • Legender misses 11 speaker JBL audio

Recently Asked User Questions

Q. Which is better, Toyota Fortuner, Jeep Meridian or Tata Safari?
  • All the cars are good in their forte. The Fortuner is capable, more powerful, can look both rugged or city-slicker, and promises to be more comfortable on the inside. It's that big jump up in price that is going to be a hard pill to swallow. On the other hand, Jeep Meridian isn't the most spacious vehicle, the cabin lacks the big SUV feel that you expect at this price point. But the interior quality is the best in the segment and the seating comfort in the front two rows is really good being a Jeep, its off-road ability is commendable for a monocoque SUV. In terms of features, the Meridian is well specced out. Whereas, Tata Safari is a well-balanced 7-seater SUV with a great balance of design, comfort, performance, safety, and practicality. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city and brand accordingly for dealership details.
Q. Which is the best car, Toyota Fortuner or MG Gloster?
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. The Fortuner is capable, more powerful, can look both rugged or city slicker and promises to be more comfortable on the inside. It's that big jump up in price that is going to be a hard pill to swallow. On the other hand, MG Gloster's interior quality is almost flawless and the comfortable seats and spacious cabin makes it a fantastic car to spend time in. Then there is its long convenience and safety features list which can put even some cars twice its price to shame. Even the engine and gearbox combo works really well, be it in the city or out on the highway, and the comfortable ride results in a car you can spend long hours in. What we expected to be better however is the fuel efficiency, which is disappointingly low compared to its rivals. Moreover, we would suggest you to take a test drive before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your city accordingly for dealership details.
Q. Which car to buy, Gloster or Fortuner?
  • Both the cars are good in their forte. MG Gloster got a lot going for it with a powerful motor, snappy 8-speed automatic and acres of space and presence. The standouts in the package are the safety package, 3rd-row space and a lengthy features list. If priced competitively we expect that MG could have a winner on their hands. On the other hand, The new Fortuner is more capable, more powerful, can look both rugged or city slicker and promises to be more comfortable on the inside. It's that big jump up in price that is going to be a hard pill to swallow. For a better understanding of compatibility and driving comfort, we would suggest you to take a test drive. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership.Read more -Toyota Fortuner Legender: Road Test Review.-MG Gloster Review: 10 Things You Must Know!.
