Now that’s a understatment

At the outset, here’s what you can expect with this latest sensation from Toyota:

• Solid build quality and interiors
• Stunning looks and road presence
• Plush interiors and acres of in-cabin space
• powerful diesel engine with 169 BHP / 343 NM torque @ 3400 RPM
• All time 4 wheel drive

With the success of Toyota Innova, the company is all set to steal a bigger chunk of the SUV market in India with it’s latest offering – Toyota Fortuner.

The Fortuner was introduced in 2005 at the Jakarta International Motor Show. It is positioned below the Land Cruiser and above the RAV4.

It is sold in 2.7 G and 2.7 V. Later on, a 2.5 G version was added. The trim 3.0 diesel engine is not officially sold in Indonesia. It was imported specially for the Sumatra and Kalimantan markets, where it became a strong seller.

The 2009 model launched in India, a minor redesign of the Toyota Fortuner was launched in August 2008. It features new projector headlamps and fascia, new rear lights, DVD Navigation system, blue-tooth connectivity, new light sand interior, electronic adjustable driver seat in 4×4 V trim, rear cool air conditioning from ceiling for second and third row, newly developed Vehicle Stability Control, Traction Control and Electronic Brake Force Distribution, with Brake Assist replacing LSPV in some models only. It is also All Wheel Drive (AWD) for the first time. Its newly redesigned front grille and front lamps are in the style of the Toyota Landcruiser.
