Toyota Fortuner vs Jeep Commander
Jeep Commander
Our verdict
Choose the Jeep Commander if you want more power and equipment. It has a 272 hp 2.0L turbo, 7 seats, 7 airbags, a 10.1-inch touchscreen, 19-inch wheels, powered front seats and blind spot detection, from AED 149,900. The Toyota Fortuner suits buyers who want a lower entry price and a choice of engines. The 2.7L (164 hp) starts at AED 128,900, which is AED 21,000 less than the Jeep, and the 4.0L V6 (235 hp) costs AED 154,900. Both Fortuner trims are 4x4 with a 6-speed automatic and seat 7. The base Fortuner is simpler, with an 8-inch screen, 17-inch wheels and rear parking sensors only. Against the V6, the Jeep is AED 5,000 cheaper and more powerful. Neither page states warranty or fuel economy, so confirm both with the dealer. Our pick: the Commander for features and performance, the 2.7L Fortuner for budget.
