Toyota has introduced 2022 updates for the popular Fortuner, which commands a 45% market share in the PPV (Pickup Passenger Vehicle) segment.
Cosmetic upgrades for the Fortuner Leader series include changes to the new radiator grille, front and rear bumpers, 18in alloy wheels, black rear door garnish and black side steps.
Dual-zone air-conditioning is also offered for the 2022 model, including retuned suspension for better comfort and road-holding, as well as Toyota Safety Sense features such as Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert. The 2.4 G variant also gets a 6-point parking sensor. Meanwhile, the Legender trim also gets an additional Rear Cross Traffic Alert on top of the standard Pre-Collision System, Lane Departure Alert and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control.
There is also a special 60th Anniversary Edition, with 520 units to be offered featuring a black roof, 20in alloy wheels and a two-tone interior with red/grey stitching.
There are two engine choices -- a 2.4-litre turbo diesel developing 150hp at 3,400rpm and 400Nm from 1,600-2,000rpm and a 2.8-litre turbo diesel capable of pumping out 204hp at 3,400rpm and 500Nm from 1,600-2,800rpm.
