Fortuner V6 2023

Knowing the fierce competition in the mid-sized SUV segment, Toyota has decided to give its Fortuner a nip-and-tuck for the 2023 model year.

First unveiled for the Thai market, the 2023 Fortuner drops the approach of offering two different facias for its entry-level and top-trim models. Instead, the Legender (Philippine market LTD) face is now standard even on the entry-level model. In Thailand, it also gains a new variant name: Fortuner Leader.

The Fortuner Leader 2.4 G and Fortuner 2.4 V gets features that used to be exclusive to the Legender/LTD such as the LED headlights, unique grille, bumpers, and two-tone 18-inch wheels. Inside, it also adds an auto-dimming rear view mirror, dual climate control, Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, a powered driver’s seat, and leather upholstery.

The safety system has also been upgraded thanks to the addition of blind spot indicators with rear cross traffic alert, stability control, traction control, and hill start assist.

Meanwhile, the Legender/LTD continues unchanged for 2023. This variant, along with the sportier GR Sport gets a unique headlight treatment, sequential turn signal indicators, and 20-inch alloy wheels. Inside, it has a 9-inch infotainment touchscreen, wireless charging, and ambient interior lighting. It also adds the rest of the Toyota Safety Sense (TSS) system adding pre-collision braking, lane departure alert, and adaptive cruise control to its list of safety features.

Still no word at this point if Toyota Indonesia (where the Philippines sources its Fortuner SUVs) will follow suit, but at this point, it’s very likely. Expect it to make an appearance likely towards the end of the year, or early next year if ever.

Japanese automaker, Toyota is preparing a wide range of new model for the South Asian markets. The company will introduce the new Innova HyCross, a new mid-sized SUV and the next-gen Fortuner SUV. A new media report claims that the all-new Toyota Fortuner will be launched in Thailand in 2023.

The all-new Toyota Fortuner will receive significant changes in terms of mechanics. The report claims that the next-gen Fortuner will be based on the Toyota’s TNGA-F platform, which underpins the brand’s big body-on-Frame SUVs & full-size pickup trucks. The platform supports a wheelbase length of 2,850-4,180mm. This architecture currently underpins the Land Cruise J300, Lexus LX, Toyota Sequoia and Toyota Tundra.

The next-gen Toyota Fortuner will come with a new diesel engine with mild-hybrid system. The SUV will receive the 1GD-FTV 2.8-litre diesel engine. Similar to the Suzuki’s mild-hybrid system, the new Fortuner mild hybrid diesel version will come with an integrated starter generator (ISG).

Previous reports suggest that the Toyota’s new mild-hybrid diesel engine could be called the GD Hybrid. The all-new Toyota Fortuner mild-hybrid version is likely to offer higher fuel efficiency and added torque on demand. It will come with engine start/stop system.  With the mild-hybrid system, the new Fortuner can collect kinetic energy during braking or deceleration that can provide an additional torque under acceleration. The new model is expected to offer improved power and torque along with higher fuel efficiency.

Upcoming Toyota Cars

Japanese automaker, Toyota will launch the new Innova HyCross and the Hyryder mid-sized SUV in the Indian market this year. Moreover, the company will introduce the new Land Cruiser and the new Urban Cruiser in the next couple of months. The new Urban Cruiser will receive new design and all-new interior with several segment-leading features. It will also get the Suzuki’s new 1.5L K15C dual-jet petrol engine with manual and 6-speed automatic gearbox.
