GAC GS4 vs Toyota Fortuner Comparison

My GAC GS4 ownership journey has been a memorable one. The vehicle's exterior design captivates the eye. At the same time, its roomy interior comfortably accommodates a family of four and their weekend essentials. Under the hood, a robust 1.5L turbocharged engine delivers ample power for effortless navigation through the bustling streets of Dubai. Additionally, the GS4 has some industry-first safety features such as auto emergency braking, lane departure warning, and blind spot monitoring, which helps a lot while I drive in and around the heavy traffic of Abu Dhabi.

The Fortuner is a very popular sight here in the UAE, and I can see why. I bought it because I needed a proper SUV with 7 seats. It definitely feels tough and capable, especially if you take it to the desert or drive in rougher roads. The 2.7L feels okay, but the 4.0L option is a beast if you want raw power. The seating position is high, giving a strong road presence. Inside, it’s very spacious, and my family loves the comfort while traveling. Of course, fuel economy isn’t the best, but that’s expected with a big SUV.The third row is a bit tight for adults but works fine for kids. The boot has fair space when seats are folded. The A/C is excellent and reaches the back quickly.
