Ford Everest 3.2 Titanium Premium 4×4 AT (2017) vs Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2.4L GLS 2WD 8AT (2020)

Ford Everest 3.2 Titanium Premium 4×4 AT (2017) vs Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2.4L GLS 2WD 8AT (2020): which should you buy?

For a Filipino buyer weighing cost against capability, the Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2.4L GLS 2WD (2020) is the more budget‑friendly option at ₱1,927,000, about ₱361,000 cheaper than the Ford Everest 3.2 Titanium Premium (2017). The Everest, however, offers a larger 3.2‑litre inline‑5 turbo diesel, delivering 200 PS and 470 Nm, which translates to stronger low‑end torque and higher peak power—useful for heavy loads, steep mountain roads, and off‑road excursions. It also comes with a 4WD system and a six‑speed automatic, whereas the Montero Sport is rear‑wheel drive with an eight‑speed automatic, making the Everest more capable on rough terrain. In terms of size, the Everest is longer (4,893 mm) and seats up to seven (2+3+2), providing extra passenger capacity compared to the Montero Sport’s unspecified seating but typical five‑door layout. Both share a body‑on‑frame construction and a three‑year/100,000 km warranty. If you need a rugged, higher‑powered family SUV for frequent off‑road use and can afford the premium, the Everest is the better fit. If daily commuting, city driving and a lower purchase price are priorities, the Montero Sport offers adequate power, a newer model year, and the benefit of an eight‑speed transmission for smoother fuel economy.
