Systematically evaluating Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLMs) is essential for advancing Artificial General Intelligence (AGI). Yet existing benchmarks remain inadequate for rigorously measuring their reasoning capabilities under multi-criteria constraints. To address this gap, we introduce MapTab, a multimodal benchmark designed to assess holistic multi-criteria reasoning in MLLMs through route-planning tasks. MapTab requires models to perceive and ground visual information from map images while integrating route attributes, such as Time and Price, from structured tables. It covers two scenarios: Metromap, spanning metro networks in 160 cities across 52 countries, and Travelmap, featuring 168 representative tourist attractions from 19 countries. Overall, MapTab includes 328 images, 196,800 route-planning queries, and 3,936 QA queries, incorporating four key criteria: Time, Price, Comfort, and Reliability. Extensive evaluations of 21 representative MLLMs show that current models still struggle with multicriteria multimodal reasoning. Notably, when visual perception is unreliable, multimodal reasoning can even underperform unimodal approaches. MapTab therefore offers a challenging and realistic testbed for systematically evaluating and advancing MLLMs across core perception, integration, numerical comparison, and route planning capabilities.
