New 18 inch diamond cut alloy design with 12 spokes looks quite stylish. Side view no longer gives the look of a tall-boy design, instead the sleek headlamps merging into the shoulder lines make the new 2016 Toyota Fortuner look more aerodynamic. You also have fog-lights encased in inverted triangle whose all sides are made of chrome. Headlight unit consists of projector headlamps, turn indicators and LED DRLs. The other part of this chrome strip hovers on to the headlight cluster. These three thick chrome slats merge into an even thicker chrome strip, which is in the shape of inverted ‘L’ alphabet. The front grille gets three chrome slats with a huge Toyota logo in the centre.
In the front you get a more premium look, thanks to generous use of chrome. New Toyota Fortuner Designĭoing away with the muscular look, and going in for the chiseled sporty look, 2016 Toyota Fortuner does look attractive. The new Fortuner is essentially a completely new vehicle with better scores on probably all of its uses and abilities, some of which we have experienced first hand. The first car on this platform to be introduced in India was the new Innova Crysta which we tested earlier this year. This is the second model for India that is based on the new platform called the Toyota New-Generation Architecture (TNGA). The 2016 Fortuner has been introduced in India after its debut in its key markets in South-East Asia like Thailand, Indonesia and Philippines since last year. Fortuner’s ability to move people across latitudes, longitudes and altitudes, has been tremendously upgraded, with key importance to convenience to the passengers during the process of getting transported. The new generation Toyota Fortuner has been launched in India that is meant for elite and adventurous customers to move from geo-point A to B no matter what’s beneath or how they choose to cut across to the destination. This is a remarkable achievement for a brand. They are probably the only company for whom the image or purpose of one car has never affected the positioning or price of the other in the lineup.
In India we have been witnessing the Qualis, Innova, Etios and Corolla. This is purely our idea of the company and from the way we see it they have made vehicles with this philosophy in almost every segment (price and market positioning), for almost every terrain condition.īe it the Yaris, Etios, Vios, Altis, or the Calya, Sienta, Avanza and Innova, their denominator seems to be the same. This made us think about what Toyota has been doing (globally), in a different perspective, and it hit us – they haven’t built vehicles that were designed to sell well, their vehicles have been mostly about transporting people from point A to point B with utmost reliability and convenience.
