Welcome to the 250 Series Toyota land Cruiser Prado Vs Ford Everest Comparison for 2025. As per usual we are doing a series of the new Landcruiser Prado vs the rest of the world comparisons. Hopefully it is give you some useful information on your research to find a new SUV for you garage or driveway. The two models are direct competitors due to size and spec and marketing so how do they compare and is the new Prado worth buying over the Ford Everest?
250 Series Toyota land Cruiser Prado Vs Ford Everest exterior design: Whilst the new Prado recalls heritage design clues from past models the Ranger doesn’t have any to recall. As a result the Ford Ranger is still the same 1st generation styling with a new front and modified rear end to match other Ford models from the North American market. It looks a like dated apart form the front end.
250 Series Toyota land Cruiser Prado Vs Ford Everest interior : Toyota often uses its individual interior design language. It rarely follows the latest design styling – which makes it easy to tell that you are probably in a Toyota. It’s all there just does it differently but it still looks and feels good and very solid. The Ford interior design is based on the Ford Ranger commercial and also the F series trucks which are decent places to be in. It looks a feels good to but overall not as nice as the new Prado. That said for the price the entry level trims on the Everest and Prado could look and feel better.
250 Series Toyota land Cruiser Prado Vs Ford Everest engines and technology : Simply put the Ford has the basic v6 turbo diesel that produced plenty of power and the tech spec is dependent on trim level. There are no features worth highlighting that we haven’t seen before. In comparison the Prado has the unusual sort of hybrid system which no doubt is the future of all Toyota 4×4 of the mostly mainstream consumer. Those who have or had a Prado for any length of time will understand why but to noobs only small minded complaints. Lets face it this class is not for serious off road buyers but for semi-challenging and long distance cruising.
The conclusion and winner of the 250 Series Toyota land Cruiser Prado Vs Ford Everest is the new Prado as it is a completely expected evolution of the last model. It is also very clear that almost all the complainers still don’t understand and get caught up the reputational hype. With so many click bait stories and nonsensical conclusions we are a little concerned with the state of objectivity, truthfulness vs entertainment, especially when entertainment is repeated as truth. So we ignore them now especially when same formula is repeated thanks to the algorithm. Things needs to change!
