Upcoming Toyota Fortuner Legender
Toyota Fortuner is one of the few full-size seven-seater car present in the Indian car market. Two full-size adults can comfortably sit in the 6th and 7th seat of the Toyota Fortuner. As of now, the new Fortuner has been unveiled in Thailand and we have got a lot of information from it. Do you know everything about the Upcoming Toyota Fortuner Legender?
Engine and Transmission
Powering the Fortuner 2021 will be a 2.7L petrol engine that can generate up to 163bhp of power and 245Nm of torque. There is also a 2.8L diesel engine option that is set to produce up to 201bhp of power and 500Nm of torque. Both engine options will be mated to either a 6-speed manual gearbox or a 6-speed automatic transmission. They will also come with rear-wheel-drive and four-wheel-drive options.
Price and Rivals
Top-of-the-line Fortuner retails for around Rs 34.43 lakh, prices for the new Fortuner Legender are expected to start at around Rs 43 lakh. This will place it at a considerable premium over other large body-on-frame SUVs in its class. When launched, it will compete against the Ford Endeavour, MG Gloster, Mahindra Alturas G4 and Honda CR-V. The Toyota Fortuner Legender SUV will go on sale in India sometime in early-2021.
Different Looks
Starting from the front, the Legender has a much sharper set of LED headlamps with individual elements and dual projector setup and integrated LED DRLs. There are also dynamic LED turn indicator strips lower down on the bumper.
Other changes also include a new front grille with the ‘Toyota’ badging at the centre. There is also a brand new front bumper with sharp creases and LED fog lamps on either side of the large air intake. The SUV also features a new set of 20-inch alloy wheels, along with some additional design revisions at the rear of the SUV.
Will the Legender replace the old Fortuner?
Toyota’s Fortuner Legender is a more premium version of Toyota’s Fortuner. It gets more equipment, as facelifts generally do, and also has an all-new look. The nose is in fact completely different, and the SUV looks a bit modified from the rear too. The Legender, however, won’t replace the Fortuner. To be sold side by side, but at a premium, the Legender will sit above the regular Fortuner. The current generation Honda city is being sold in the same way in the Indian car market.
