Toyota Fortuner LTD 4x4 vs Nissan Terra VL 4x4 Review | AutoDeal Comparo 

In a nutshell... The Fortuner looks aggressive with a tougher ride, while the Terra looks on the matured side and having a relaxed ride. Moreover, I think I'm more interested about the location of this shoot...🤔

Blessed enough to have both, I would say it has its own pros and cons. For the Nissan Terra, it is best in the class for ride comfort with its suspension and anti-gravity seats. It also has a more luxurious interior thanks to that HUD in the dashboard, e-brake, and red leather interior. The tech on this SUV is also crazy loaded. The least likeable thing from the Terra for me is the engine. It feels underpowered, especially in the lower gear. I feel like the pairing of the engine and transmission is not seamless. For the Toyota Fortuner, you would feel that the ride comfort is a bit stiffer compared to the former. But it has drastically improved from its previous models. I love that it also has a red leather interior accent, cooling seats, and accents lights all over. It sure feels loaded as well and everything feels durable yet comfortable. ALSO, THE ENGINE FOR THE LTD IS POWERFUL. The best reason to purchase this SUV, however, is its resale value and practicality. As we all know, Toyota is the king of resale value, so this is a big consideration especially if you're the type of person who would buy a car and sell it after five years or so (especially because of the fact that cars right now are only built to have a shorter lifespan). Overall, I say go for Nissan Terra if you prefer comfort, tech and space. But if you prefer practicality and reliability, go for the Toyota Fortuner.

Caco is the only car review specialist who does not make me sleep during the video! In fact, he clears my mind about car options.

I love watching reviews of cars I can't afford 😜

Great addition to a comparo - a sound test 👍 Power is good but not all the time. For someone who loves to drive long distances for therapeutic purposes & does not speed up like a race car driver (I live in Negros Occ.), comfort will really matter. I guess I'm partial to the Terra. I now realized I got the wrong SUV for me 😆 Got swayed by the fam. No wonder I feel enervated after a long drive. Resale value 😅😂🤣 Tnx Autodeal Team. Your videos are always informative 👋👋👋 Pls. do add an engine sound test too. Tnx much.

Man, 4 aircon vents for the second row just solidifies Nissan's reputation for air conditioning.

Autodeal review getting better and better, any addition of information to help viewers gain more knowledge is always accepted, thank you team for always trying to make it better. If I could have the power to suggest thou, I have been a long long time viewer of the channel, and been suggesting ever since to include the weight of the vehicles as it affects ALL of the important aspects of the vehicle, acceleration, power to weight, agility, ride aspects and fuel consumption.

Nicely done Sir Caco. I would love to see a comparo like this between the Honda BR-V VX and the Mitsubishi Xpander Cross.

In the audiophile hobby, it's simply called a "blind test". It is used to avoid biases towards looks and brands, and focus solely on the sound to gauge which one is better. And I was almost expecting this, where a JBL system will sound "warmer" and "fuller" (also bassier), and a Bose system, while also mostly tuned "V" (thus the monicker, "highs and lows...Bose"), will sound a touch "thinner" and a touch more treble-ish. Anyway, for the actual comparo, Terra for me. I am not an SUV fan. What I love is MPVs. And yet on the space test, the cargo space configuration on the Terra is much like a flat-folding MPV (e.g. an Xpander or an Ertiga, where you also fit "6" balikbayan boxes). Power, the Fortuner. Tech, I think they are neck and neck. But ride comfort? I feel like that's a no-contest as even Fortuner owners admit that the ride is quite "robust". It's an SUV though so I don't think that's a detriment. It's more of a personal preference towards a more comfortable ride for me. Great comparo as always, Caco and team! Keep 'em coming!

I was literally just watching your guys shorts about this upcoming battle no longer than 3 mins ago. The universe has spoken to me 😂

Both cars really are great, it just comes down to buyers preference. For more mature and to those who always travel terra is the go to car, but to youngsters like me i would go for fortuner since power and looks are really meant for younger people.

Terra all the way but we must remember this fortuner is basically the same as 7 years ago. Can't wait for the next generation of the fortuner😢

Terra all day! Comfort is everything for an SUV. It must not feel like you’re driving a truck.

When it comes to comfort and sapce go with Terra. When it comes to resale value and practicality of parts go for Fortuner. Nissan Terra has also the lane keep assist,and adaptive cruise control. Also don't forget the Terra's sudden collision system :D

Been waiting for this review comparo! Thanks Sir Caco and Autodeal! God Bless always!!!

Cargo space, Convenience, Looks (almost equal to the other one), Power = Terra has it all. But it will be still depends on you. Good job for the review.

This is the sign I have been waiting for to get the Terra. I’ve been going back and forth between these two 😅

Don’t forget those zero gravity seats 👌 it doesn’t throw you off side to side and that is comfort! Terra it is for me

Terra for the win! And oh by the way, I love the sound test segment too 🔈 🔊 I hope you do it more often 🥂

That "T" badge means something to many people including price difference. It also doesn't matter if they've only owned and driven Toyota's. However, that "T" badge also means sacrificing ride and drive comfort/quality and passenger/cargo volume and that's many many kilometers of bouncing around and not being able to take that extra "balikbayan box" or 2! Good comparison!

For a person driving both my Terra (Just purchased last quarter, from my previous Subaru XV) and my Dads New Fortuner (Sobrang haba ng pila sa pilipinas, to have the top of the line, tagal ng hinintay namin since months lang naman yung agwat ng sasakyan), I must say, kung comfort hinahanap mo go for terra pero kung hatak lalo na pagakyatan (especially nasa province kami and may zigzag) go for fortuner pero hindi naman nagkakalayo. Lalo na pag drive ko is from Batangas to Bicol. Medyo may pagod factor si Fortuner (pero kanya kanya naman yun) compare nung dinala ko si Terra same route.

Very well reviewed! Now do a terra vs everest comparo please!

It's about the composure and not about showing off the macho side that makes the Terra outstanding in any given day...good choice sir...

The one thing missing here since you are comparing the 4x4 variant is the ACTUAL use of the 4x4.

Nice idea to add the meow meow test and hill test..keep it up AD!

Terra, my TOTGA hahaha. Actually torned between these two also. But sadly, Nissan wasn’t able to provide one that time. Took 3 months of waiting then we finally decided to get the Fortuner. Driving it for 6 months now. No regrets at all. I love how the 3 driving modes work. This is such a nice review tho. Commendable work Autodeal!

that blind test won't really be blind considering that caco can distinguish basing on the seat feel.

Engine sound check would be a nice addition to these reviews. anyway, great video as always.

Nice video! Please have a comparo too on Toyota Fortuner and the latest Ford Everest.

Actually torned between these two! I was glad you made a comparo. Although i have DART my 2007 fortuner. I love the 3rd row seats of terra and montero. Not a fan with 3rd row seats of fortuner. still given a chance ill go with TERRA because we use it as a family car. Unfortunately the parts of nissan is a bit rare and damn expensive. Im in my 30s practicality wise fortuner is the go to..

Nissan Terra all day everyday, damn if i have the money i would buy one immediatly

I like the way toyota designed the exterior of the fortuner. But I prefer the interior of Terra. But I guess you cant go wrong with either of these two. By the way, I love the blindfolded segment!

when the boxes were loaded, you can see that the top clearance is way much higher on the fortuner. I think if you just lay down the 3rd row seat of the fortuner flat, without pulling it on the sides, capacity will be much the same, more or less and fortuner will have the same horizontal clearance as its competitor

Great review!, as always.

for a 65 yr old I would go for the TERRA where I can sleep soundly on long trips as a passenger

Majority ng mga nag cocomment dito pinipili terra compared sa fortuner. Pero in reality, pipiliin ng mga BUYER si toyota pa rin kahit pa mas mahal ang fortuner.

That Terra colour is called maroon Caco. Just fyi. In my opinion, when you keep saying more “matured” ride, I see it as closer to luxurious ride. I would also prefer a luxurious feel when driving or riding. It probably does come with age, but can’t go wrong with comfort.

The sound system test part cracks me up 🤣

I'll give up the power rear door if i have to give up my cargo 😁..but with respect with both suv they both have their own quirks it boils down to your preference...😄

Gotta go with the Terra!

Cant wait for a Comparo between Fortuner LTD 4x4 vs Everest Titaniun+ 4x4

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Isn't it Terra probably arguably one of the most beautiful SUV in the market right now compare to the Fortuner. The amenities are paramount especially the comfort and the technology they offer. But, for some reason when it comes to reliability, the resale value and the ease of parts availability, Toyota always win it. When you go back to the 1st generation of both this vehicle you could see the differences between the style, the resale value which the Fortuner is still relevant and more buck's for your money. Now, if you think you are not going to own the SUV for a long time then I will go for the Terra. Overall, I think you won't regret owning either one of them.

I guess you meant affordability at the start-in line with practicality and utility. Hehe. Nice comparo!

I always watch your reviews, regardless of brand and model it is. It just feels like home. If I were to buy one, I'm picking the Terra between the two. Hopefully I can make enough dough this year so I can afford the BRV (more reviews on it please) this Christmas or next year. Claiming it!

me too, we preferred the terra

Thank you sir Caco its a nice Comparo review excellent, now i decided I'll go for Terra,tnx😊..

Thanks for the review. Finally our decision is fix. Will go with Ford Everest.

Fortuner LTD 4x4 always, no contest 2.8-litre Toyota 1GD-FTV is the best engine there is in this category, including the local pickup segment, where the Hilux is mated with the same engine (and the 2GD-FTV of course)

Very good review LITTLE MAN. 😉

You can adjust the bose sound system in Terra to feel more base. The default mode doesnt give justice to base tho :)

Nice comparison sir!

Sana macomparo din ung bigger brother nila! Toyota Land Cruiser 300 vs Nissan Patrol Royale!!

We love our Terra VL 4X4!!!

Nissan Terra seems to favor a majority of comments here....now, add me to that as well! :)

Thanks. This actually helps. I am getting the updated Terra Sport.❤

Nissan Terra, my [current] dream car huhu 😭 Edit: Amazing work, AutoDeal Team! Thank you for producing this comparo!

Waiting for pickup trucks comparo, Mr. Caco

Very nice "Comparo" Caco, I've been waiting for this , yes your so right, i would prefer the Terra VL due to its interior, softer ride and of course its hanging LCD monitor hahaha, no, not a fan of adaptive cruise control which Fortuner have, still, comfort ride is a must for me. But how i wish i could have both! 😉Thanks boss Caco.

TERRA of course, space & comfort 💯⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It will be awesome if you guys can provide the same auto deal polo shirt for Jack. 😅. Ohh Everest Titanium is just newer with more tech than the older terra and fortuner. If you’re after reliability then go for any of the Japanese SUV. They’re both great anyway.

I have the same preference. Terra here! ☺️😍

Both vehicles, are very good I go for the Terra but what would you recommend if don't need 4 wheel drive have no intention going off road but like the space and the toys and not a diesel.

I go for the Nissan Terra❤️

I prefer comfort for long rides and rough terrain. I prefer torquier engine in city.

Jan 2020, desperately need a transportation. I called the nearby Toyota dealer and agreed to purchase a Fortuner. During the process, I discovered that the Fortuner at that time, doesn't have a bkup camera and so discouraged of the side fold up rear seats. I was attracted and switched to much cheaper Rush. It has the bkup camera. Other than looks nice, small and good transportation around town. I regret, Rush is very basic. Lack of power, loud and bumpy. Should have bought Everest at that time but no dealer nearby. After just 3 months of usage, Looking forward into getting rid of this Rush. I was Rushed into buying the Rush😂😊. Now eyeing on the Zenix, Terra or Everest. Thanks

nice comparo! LTD user here

More comparison videos please. But for crossovers.

Thanks! I have terra 2023

i'm in the middle of choosing between the Fortuner and the Terra and I guess the answer I am looking for is is 24:20 mark. I guess its Nissan Terra for me then. 👍

For my first car, I had choices like the Fortuner, Everest, Terra, and Montero. I ended up with the LTD 4x4 2022, but I've regretted it due to the bumpy ride and stiff steering of the Fortuner. I even thought about selling it and going for an Everest instead. However, I'm sticking with it for now and saving up for an LC upgrade down the road!

now we need the latest everest and fortuner/terra comparo please.

Thank you sir for video. Now, i have the choice! Terra is best for me. Tnx for d wonderful review...😊

I own and drive both, and based on my experience, easy driving ang fortuner mababa ang hood for vidibility at mas powerful ang engine plus the drive mode makes fortuner more fun and sporty to drive. Terra is more comfortable to ride. It is more specious more luxurious feel. ang downside ng terra has no grab handle on the driver's side, and there is no automatic lift gate. for me, driving experience go for Fortuner Riding experience go for Terra gone past the days to talk about parts and resale value depende lagi yan sa maintenance at pano mo gamitin ang sasakyan.

Ang lamig sa tenga pag nag sasalita si sir nakaka inganyo na pakinggan ang mga review nya sa mga sasakyan

Mas solid sara ng pinto nung Terra, based sa video. More comfy suspension and seats too.

Why not have an updated comparo of all the new 2023 models of mid-size SUV's?

Its a better view when you review with a white terra also

@5:25 😅😅😅 Cargo space... Yeah its a tesla.. Sa mga di naka gets "Car go space" Meron sasakyang pinadala sa space and its a tesla roadster owned by elon.. Sent to test the cargo capability ng falcon heavy rocket..😁

terra my men! everest and terra is the new best rival as of now.

The new Everest should have a Comparo as well.

Always onitsuka tiger hehehe.... Nice review

Question, why don't you guys record using 60fps. Your shots are amazing and it would look even better (and smoother) at 60fps

Your also colorblind? I feel you man 👀

Dapat palakihan pa ang singal light ng terra, kasi pag sa highway mostly mga high speed d masyado visible ang Signal light ng terra.

My choice is Nissan because their Aircon system is more reliable when it comes to coldness. They're renowned for that for more than 3 decades nothing can match.

If you live in the far provinces, fortuner is king as casa and parts will be plentiful.. terra is perfect for people living near the metro , parts are available in banawe plus the comfort in edsa bumpy roads is to die for

Majority of the comments are voting for Terra, however in reality Majority are buying the Fortuner 😂

How about the steering feels? Which has more heft wich is ligther

where is the location of the two cars shot side by side at the end? the scene looks great

Definitely the Terra for me Caco, lovely review as ever.

In india the whole market of seven seater is occupied by fortuner. In india it's become the symbol of Power because vvip in india love fortuner. But it quite costly in india in compare with other countries.😎🇮🇳

Thanks for the information sir , i ‘ll go for Nissan TERRA 🙏🙏🙏

Sir Caco, saw you driving the Fortuner last week sa may Shaw Blvd sa may Starbucks. Haha.

Good looking pick up .

I see more fortuner ltd on the roads than the terra vl. I still go for fortuner btw all the way!

will consider Nissan Tierra. Thank you! Nissan T has more space right?

If you stare at the leather pattern of the Terra, you can see a bunch of Mitsubishi Logos.

Next Gen Everest Titanium+ 4x4. All day everyday and twice on Sundays 😉✌️

Caco whats the difference of the exterior of LTD 4X2 AND 4X4? I don't think there is a difference between them

tama talaga ako sa sound test na caco is more of a Bose kind of guy 😄
