Why is Toyota Fortuner missing in this list? Fortuner is one of the most value for money sports utility vehicle in India with four wheel drive. It has got the muscles. Wonder why Thar is here and no excellent offroader.

Where is Mitsubishi Pajero? I think, Pajero Sports should be the first one in the list.

And what about Rexton?
