Ford will be soon introducing the new generation of Everest for the Indian Market after it almost shut down its operations in India due to poor performance. This new SUV will compete against the Toyota Fortuner and so we thought of comparing it against the Fortuner’s Legender version to see how good both the SUVs are.

Ford Everest | Expected Rs. 35 – Rs. 45 L |
Toyota Fortuner Legender | Rs. 43.66 – Rs. 47.64 L |
Ford Everest was known before as Ford Endeavour and when it got discontinued, it was priced between Rs. 30 – Rs. 36.27 Lakh with 4 Trims – Titanium 4×2, Titanium+ 4×2, Titanium+ 4×4, and Sport Edition. However, the Everest could be priced between Rs. 35 Lakhs – Rs. 45 Lakhs for the 4 new trims – Trend 4×2, Limited 4×2, Sport 4×2, Titanium+ 4×2, and Titanium+ 4×4.
As for the warranty, Ford used to offers 2 years/1,00,000 km warranty period for the Endeavour that can be extended up to 6 Years / 1,50,000 KM and the Fortuner Legender has a warranty period of 3 years/1,00,000 KM that can be extended up to 5 Years / 2,20,000 KM.
In the end, the decision to buy which SUV depends totally on you, however, if you ask us, the Ford Everest definitely has more to offer than the Fortuner Legender and so if you’re willing to wait for its launch, it’ll be a worthy decision given its bigger in dimensions, powerful, tons of features over the Legender, and so much more. However, the Fortuner Legender also sports a good amount of features, space and comfort, and great performance but compared to all its rivals in the segment, it has an outdated design but still many people like crazy buy the SUV. An update for it is coming near the end of this year. So, the question is what are you going to do?
