    What's the story

    Toyota has officially launched the facelifted version of its premium SUV, the Fortuner, in Thailand.

    The 2021 model comes with an updated design, refreshed interiors with the latest technology, and a powerful diesel powertrain with greater power output as compared to previous models.

    In India, the heavy-duty SUV is expected to be launched next year.

    Here's our roundup.

    Exteriors

    2021 Toyota Fortuner: At a glance

    The 2021 Toyota Fortuner has an eye-catching look, featuring an updated mesh-pattern grille, refreshed bumpers, new LED headlamps with LED DRLs, sleeker LED tail-lights, and a muscular bonnet.

    There is also a top-spec 'Legender' variant which sports a split grille, sequential LED turn indicators, and dual-LED projector headlamps.

    On the sides, the SUV is flanked by roof rails, indicator-mounted ORVMs, and 18/20-inch alloy wheels.

    Interiors

    A peek inside the cabin

    The 2021 Fortuner offers a seven-seater cabin with ambient lighting, eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat, and a power steering wheel.

    For connectivity, the car packs a digital instrument cluster, an 8.0-inch (9.0-inch for Legender variant) touchscreen infotainment panel with Apple CarPlay support, a wireless phone charger, and a nine-speaker JBL audio system.

    For safety, it gets seven airbags, Toyota Safety Sense, and a 360-degree camera.

    Engine

    Power and performance

    The 2021 Fortuner comes with a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder diesel mill which generates 150hp/400Nm and an upgraded 2.8-liter diesel motor which makes 204hp of power and 500Nm of torque.

    In India, the company is expected to offer the new Fortuner with the existing 2.7-liter petrol engine and the aforementioned 2.8-liter diesel motor. Both units are likely to come with a 6-speed manual or automatic powertrain.

    Pricing

    What about the pricing?

    The facelifted Toyota Fortuner is expected to be launched in India in 2021 and is likely to carry a premium over the current model which is priced between Rs. 28.66-34.43 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

    Meanwhile, the price of the current model has been hiked by Rs. 48,000, and a limited-edition model of the SUV with new features is likely to arrive in the country soon.
