The Fortuner offers fewer features when compared to its competitors. However, that is compensated by its rugged looks, solid performance, and the brand’s reliability. Under the hood, the SUV comes equipped with a 2.7-litre petrol and a 2.8-litre diesel engine. The former is tuned to develop 164bhp and 245Nm of torque. On the other hand, the diesel engine is capable of producing 201bhp and 500Nm of peak torque. The transmission options include a six-speed manual gearbox and an automatic unit. Moreover, depending on the variant one chooses, the Fortuner is bundled with 4x2 and 4x4 configurations.
