By Toyota Fortuner is one of the most popular premium SUV in its segment. We have seen several modified Fortuner examples over the years but we are yet to see the modified version of the new model. The first pictures of all-black Fortuner have hit the internet and it certainly looks badass. The changes start with the front as the grille has been de-chromed to give a black finish along with the same finish for the front and rear skid plates.
The silver finish for the alloy wheels gets a black finish and the standard tyres have been replaced by BFGoodrich all-terrain tyres. The rear gets a black finish for the silver cladding on the rear door. The only chrome finish on the all-black version is the chrome on the door handles, which works well with the all-black finish. The all-black Fortuner is the regular variant instead of the Legender as we have seen only a handful of examples on the road.
The new Fortuner is available in a 2.8 L Diesel Engine with 6-Speed Automatic and 6-Speed Manual Transmission with Intelligent Manual Transmission options and a 2.7 L Petrol Engine in 6-Speed Automatic and 5-Speed Manual Transmission. The Fortuner Automatic Transmission variants provide best-in-class torque of 500 Nm and 204 PS of Power while Manual Transmission variants generate 204 PS of power and 420 Nm Torque.
For the interior, Superior Suction based Seat ventilation system (Front Row) and a larger Smart Playcast Touchscreen Audio with Android Auto/Apple Carplay and a JBL 11 speaker w/ subwoofer system [4X4 variants only] are some of the key changes. For added driving comfort and convenience, the new Fortuner comes with Auto Limited Slip Differential (Auto-LSD) that enables maximum power without breaking traction, Variable Flow Control (VFC) Power Steering that allows customers to dynamically change steering dynamics with drive modes [Eco, Normal, Sport] and Front Clearance Sonar to safely navigate when parking in tight spaces.
