The Ford Explorer is the clear winner here, offering superior horsepower (up to 400 hp), faster acceleration (as low as 5.5s), and a modern 10-speed automatic transmission for a more dynamic drive.
The Mitsubishi Pajero stands out for its affordability, with a significantly lower starting price of 126,500 SAR, making it a more accessible SUV for budget-conscious buyers.
The Ford Explorer provides a more comfortable ride for families with its longer wheelbase (3.0m) and consistent 515L trunk capacity, ensuring ample space for seven passengers and their luggage.
Despite its power, the Ford Explorer is more fuel-efficient, achieving as low as 7.8 L/100km, which is considerably better than the Mitsubishi Pajero's 13 L/100km.
