All-new Toyota Fortuner revealed in first photos

July 11,2015

toyota-fortunerThe all-new Toyota Fortuner, one of the most anticipated vehicles in the Asean region, has just been photographed without camouflage. Renderings of the new Fortuner have been circulating in recent months, but these are the first photos purportedly showing the actual car without any disguise.

 

The front shows smaller, slit-like headlamps with what look like daytime running lights and LED main units. There’s a generous helping of chrome, with two vertical strips and three bars across the grille. Even the foglamp surrounds get some chrome surrounds.

The rear lamps are also wide and low, flanking a chrome bar stretching across the tailgate. There’s a conspicuous kink that rises aft of the rear doors. The instrument panel looks different from the new Hilux’s, with two big vertical bars flanking the center panel.

The new Fortuner is expected to carry a 2.8-liter diesel engine with 177ps and 450Nm, with a promised improvement in fuel efficiency and reduced engine noise.

The all-new Fortuner is being assembled in Thailand and is scheduled be launched on July 17.
