Overview and Variants
The 2025 model Fortuner is offered in two primary versions: the Standard Fortuner and the premium Legender, now enhanced with Neo Drive 48V mild-hybrid technology for improved fuel efficiency and driving refinement. These versions span multiple drivetrain and transmission choices: 4×2 and 4×4, manual and automatic transmissions, and petrol alongside the robust 2.8-liter turbo diesel engine.
Engine and Performance
At the heart of the Fortuner is a 2.8L turbo diesel engine delivering 204 PS of power and 500 Nm of torque—offering robust pull for highway cruising or tough terrain maneuvers. The vehicle features a 6-speed manual or automatic transmission. The Neo Drive variants add a 48V mild hybrid system for better fuel economy and smoother start-stop operation, making city driving less taxing on the engine. The Fortuner also supports multiple drive modes (Eco, Normal, Power) and advanced assist systems like Hill Assist and Downhill Assist Control to enhance safety on steep roads.
Design and Interior
Exterior enhancements include a new multi-slat chrome front grille, LED projector headlamps with daytime running lights, 18-inch alloy wheels, power-adjustable and auto-folding outside mirrors, and LED rear combination lamps. Interior luxury rises with dual-tone leather upholstery (variant-specific), an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, 11-speaker JBL premium audio, connected car tech including geo-fencing and real-time vehicle tracking, and convenience features such as wireless charging and powered front seats.
Safety and Technology
The Fortuner upholds Toyota’s commitment to safety with seven airbags, Vehicle Stability Control, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors with camera, ISOFIX child seat mounts, and advanced traction control. The vehicle also includes driver aids like electronic drive control for the 4×4 models and an optional 360-degree camera for enhanced parking assistance.
