Smart Summary for Car Selection
Why choose
- Four engine and drivetrain routes are offered against the Majestor's one, covering a 2.7-litre petrol, a 2.8-litre diesel in rear and four-wheel drive, and a 48-volt mild hybrid diesel making 500Nm, so there is a version to suit almost any use
- A manual gearbox is available on the diesel, and the Majestor is automatic only, so anyone who wants to choose their own gear has one option here
- The 500Nm mild hybrid diesel out-torques the standard diesel by 80Nm, and that is the version to have for towing or full-load highway work
- Toyota's service network reach and workshop competence at this price are the deepest in the segment, and for a vehicle bought to last a decade that matters more than any feature
- Resale values are the strongest in this class by a wide margin, and at this price the rupee difference on resale is larger than most cars cost outright
- Six exterior colours are offered against the Majestor's narrower palette
Why not choose
- The Majestor is longer, wider and taller, so the Fortuner is the smaller vehicle inside despite competing at similar money
- The 2.7-litre petrol makes 164bhp and 245Nm and comes in rear-wheel drive only, so the cheapest Fortuner is both the least powerful and the least capable
- Its 2.8-litre diesel's 201bhp trails the Majestor's 213bhp, and 420Nm trails the Majestor's 478.5Nm
- Petrol economy of around 10.3kmpl is poor for a vehicle that will cover long distances
- Feature content sits well behind the Majestor at comparable money, with no panoramic sunroof, no massage seats and no triple differential lock
Why choose
- The 2.0-litre twin-turbo diesel makes 213bhp and 478.5Nm, so it out-powers and out-torques the standard Fortuner diesel from a smaller engine
- Front, centre and rear locking differentials are all fitted on the four-wheel drive version, which is hardware normally found on purpose-built off-roaders rather than family SUVs
- Ground clearance of 219mm and a wading depth of 810mm are both well beyond what the Fortuner claims
- At 5,046mm long, 2,016mm wide and 1,870mm tall on a 2,950mm wheelbase it is the largest vehicle in this comparison in every direction, and that shows across all three rows
- Ten off-road modes and Crawl Control are included on the four-wheel drive version
- A panoramic sunroof, eight-level massage on powered ventilated front seats, three-zone climate control, a 12-speaker audio system and dual wireless chargers are all fitted, and the Fortuner has none of them
- The 343-litre boot expands to 1,250 litres with the third row folded
Why not choose
- Diesel is the only fuel and an eight-speed automatic the only gearbox, so there is no petrol option and no manual anywhere in the range
- It is not engaging to drive quickly, so the extra power does not translate into a car that rewards a keen driver
- MG's service network at this price point is far thinner than Toyota's, and for a vehicle meant to last a decade that is a real risk rather than an inconvenience
- Resale values have no established record for a vehicle this expensive from this brand in India, and on this sum depreciation is a large unknown
- Only 6 airbags are fitted, which is modest for a flagship at this money
Fortuner
The Fortuner's case is not specification, because on paper it loses. It is the smaller vehicle, down on power and torque against the Majestor, and its feature list is a generation behind. What it sells instead is certainty. Toyota's workshops know this vehicle, parts are everywhere, and resale is the strongest in the class by enough that the rupee gap often exceeds the price difference at purchase.
It also offers four powertrain routes against the Majestor's one, including a manual and a 500Nm mild hybrid diesel the MG cannot match. Avoid the 2.7-litre petrol, because at 164bhp in rear-wheel drive only and around 10.3kmpl, it gives you the badge without the capability or the economy.
Majestor
On what you get for the money, the Majestor wins comfortably. It is larger than the Fortuner in every dimension, makes more power and torque from a smaller engine, and adds triple locking differentials, Crawl Control, 219mm of clearance and 810mm of wading depth that the Toyota does not offer. Massage seats, three-zone climate and a panoramic sunroof are equipment the Fortuner has no answer to.
What you take on is the ownership unknown. MG's network at this price is not comparable to Toyota's, and resale has no history to point at. The single gearbox and single fuel also mean no petrol and no manual, and it is not a vehicle that rewards being driven hard.
