The Fortuner is offered with two engine options: a 2.7-litre petrol and a 2.8-litre diesel. The petrol engine churns out 166PS/245Nm while mated to a 5-speed manual and the diesel unit produces 177PS/420Nm mated to a 6-speed manual transmission. Both engines are available with a 6-speed automatic option as well. The diesel engine gets a 30Nm bump in torque with the automatic transmission. Toyota offers the Fortuner’s 4x4 drivetrain with the diesel engine only, with both manual and automatic gearboxes.
The Japanese SUV did not get any new features with the BS6 update. It continues to be a well-equipped model with features like leather upholstery, powered tailgate, seven airbags, and cruise control. The facelifted Fortuner will be making its global debut on June 4 with a revised front fascia and possibly some new features too.
The Fortuner was the first in its segment to offer BS6 powertrains but rivals like the Ford Endeavour and Mahindra Alturas G4 have since been launched with BS6 engines as well.
