Fortuner 2010 Price In Uae

[Breanna Mangels]

Toyotas tough Fortuner is a seven seat family hauler based heavily on the brand's top-selling HiLux ute. There's a distinctly local flavour to the Fortuner, too, with the frame, engine, suspension all tough-tested in Australia, while also Aussies designed parts of the body and underpinnings. There's a single turbo-diesel engine on offer, ensuing the four-wheel drive Fortuner performs as a better-than-average tow vehicle. It's a vehicle at home off the tarmac, too, with a well-deserved reputation for go-anywhere toughness missing from some road-biased SUVs, and as such arrives with four-wheel drive, along with its seven seats, as standard kit.

The Mitsubishi is about $4000 cheaper based on RRP than the Toyota, but the final price can vary from dealer to dealer and what state you live in. The best advice is to try each one on for size and maybe even throw in contenders like the Ford Everest as a direct comparison. Show more

Meantime, it remains that unless your driving habits include a 30-minute drive at highway speeds every two or three weeks, a modern turbo-diesel with a DPF may not be the best choice. It is worth noting, though, that HiLuxes (and Prados and Fortuners) built after June 2018 have been fitted with a manual regeneration function for the DPF which means the driver can manually force a DPF burn-off without waiting for the car to do so itself. Toyota has also announced that the worst affected versions of the HiLux will now be covered by an extended, 10-year warranty on any DPF issues going forward. More information can be found here.

As far as we know, the V6 turbo-diesel widely tipped to power the next LandCruiser (the 300 Series) is still just a maybe for the HiLux range. And even if it did make it into the HiLux, it would almost certainly be restricted to a sporty GR badged version as Toyota leverages its Dakar rally experience into a marketing role. With that in mind, the V6 would be an unlikely starter for the Fortuner which is aimed much more closely at families and, for whom, seating capacity and running costs are far more important than the ability to get to 100km/h in a hurry.

Big, burly, and road presence by the bucket load. No wonder it sells so well in India. But is that really all the reason behind its success? In this video, Vikrant Singh tells you more about this SUV than what meets the eye.

Soldiering on with its iconic styling, the Fortuner has established itself in the Indian market. With the last facelift it received, the changes on the inside that were predominantly updated include a sleeker grille, LED headlamp units with integrated DRLs, reworked styling on the bumper along with a revised LED taillight signature, and, of course, stylish-looking 18-inch alloy wheels.

When it comes to exterior colours, the Toyota Fortuner is available in nine colour options, which include Sparkling Black Crystal Shine, Phantom Brown, Super White, Attitude Black, Avant-Garde Bronze, Grey Metallic, White Pearl Crystal Shine, Silver Metallic, and White Pearl Crystal Shine with a black roof. Some of these options are only available to the Legender buyer.

The Legender version offers a more upmarket cabin with dual-tone black and maroon colour leather upholstery, wireless charging, ambient lighting, and black dials with white illumination for the instrument console.

The Toyota Fortuner has scored a five-star rating in the NCAP crash test. It comes with seven airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, seat-belt reminder system, speed alert system, VSC with brake assist, traction control, and a park assist function.

While the Ford Endeavour has been discontinued, the Toyota Fortuner now finds rivals in the form of the MG Gloster and the Isuzu MU-X apart from premium soft-roaders like the Volkswagen Tiguan AllSpace and the Skoda Kodiaq.

The Fortuner is that seven-seater SUV that does everything. It now looks even more upmarket and imposing with the updates. And with a proven track record and dependability the Toyota brand offers, customers only have more reasons to buy it than otherwise.

And whichever driving mode (Normal, Eco, Sport) you select from the buttons on the centre console, there's good enough differentiation in performance. You might want to stick to Eco mode, when you're inching forward in traffic, where a subdued throttle response is fine for a smoother driving experience. It still does keep up with traffic as there's adequate power delivery. Meanwhile, selecting 'Normal' mode ensures there's a good balance of both power and economy. However, you'd forget these two modes once you click on Sport and feel the immediacy with the surge in power. The sharp throttle response is impressive and it's not just all show and no go, as you can quickly feel the sprint times to be faster as well.

Thankfully, the six-speed torque converter gearbox complements the engine well. Sure, it isn't as quick as the new DCTs but offers very smooth shifts. It helps the SUV move ahead without any jerks and continues to creep ahead in traffic. This becomes quite helpful in bumper-to-bumper traffic when you can just brake without having to modulate the accelerator pedal at all. On the go, keep the throttle inputs gentle and it will continue making progress with the revs as low as 1,600rpm. The engine continues to remain fairly silent till 2,000rpm and thanks to a strong mid-range makes quicker progress. It's only post 2,500rpm when you can start to hear the engine buzz and it gets more audible as the revs build.

Floor the gas pedal and you'll feel a slight, one second or so, lag before the gearbox downshifts. Even in Sport mode, it's not very aggressive, though it holds on to the gear allowing it to rev till 4,000rpm before upshifting. You still have the option of using the paddle-shifters and taking control, especially while making a quick overtake. It does help pack a punch but it's still better to plan this move as it's a heavy and huge vehicle. Otherwise, it will continue to cruise comfortably at low revs at triple-digit speeds and keep munching miles and miles. The engine never feels strained even with a full load and all passengers on-board along with their luggage. With the abundance of torque, it continues to cruise with light or moderate throttle inputs while being in the highest gear possible.

A de-chromed look in the front and back, new quad-lamps with a different fascia, striking new 18-inch alloys, and different upholstery inside helps the Legender differentiate itself from the standard Fortuner. Yet, limited colour options, absence of new-age features, no 4x4 system or even a manual version, and still at a price of Rs 45 lakh on-road might make one re-think his/her choices. However, it's still backed by Toyota's outstanding after-sales service, low service costs, prolonged warranty coverage, long-term reliability, and even good resale value, adding to a hassle-free ownership experience. So, all of this with a little exclusivity thanks to this Legender version, prospective buyers might not hesitate in paying that premium.

For the standard variant, the fascia has received an evolutionary change with changes including new LED projector headlamps, a redesigned grille which loses its three chrome slat design and a completely new bumper with a more prominent front bash plate, larger faux side-intakes and repositioned LED indicator strip. The Legender variant has a completely different fascia with a much slimmer grille, all-LED headlamps, larger lower air dam and unique dual-tone paint schemes. The side design has not changed from the pre-facelift version, with the two variants differentiated by the larger 18-inch wheels. Changes at the rear are much less noticeable, the biggest one being the new LED elements in the taillights which now mimic those on the Camry sedan.

The Toyota Fortuner facelift continues to be powered by the same 2.8-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged diesel and 2.7-litre, naturally-aspirated, four-cylinder engine. The diesel engine, when paired with the manual gearbox, develops 201bhp / 420Nm but gets a torque boost to 500Nm when paired to the 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission. The diesel powertrain can be had with either a 4x2 or a 4x4 drivetrain. The petrol engine, which develops 164bhp / 245Nm can be had with both manual and automatic transmission but is only available with 4x2 drivetrain.

Fortuner car comes in 2 petrol variants and 5 diesel variants. The Fortuner petrol variant comes with a 2694cc engine capacity and Manual or Automatic (TC) transmission modes. It generates 164 bhp @ 5200 rpm. The Fortuner diesel variant comes with a 2755cc engine capacity and Manual or Automatic (TC) transmission modes. It generates 201 bhp @ 3400 rpm.

Those big 17 inches alloy wheelsHigh seating positionLow cost maintenanceVery direct steering wheelPower is delivered right from the 1400 RPM mark up to the 3400 RPM mark.The D-4D 3.0 litre engine has been the best from Toyota which gives about 171 Bhp of power and 343 Nm of torque.Like it is said, you can have a Fortuner in any colour as long as its White.

The glove compartment is really small and needs attention by the manufacturers.The same old climate control buttons look a bit old now and needs a change.The large turning radius of this SUV makes it extremely difficult while taking u-turns.The rising prices of the fortuner can be a issue. Initially it was launched at about 21 lacs and now after 5 years the cost has gone to up to 30 lacs with no such big changes in the SUV.It should definitely be equipped with more features like rain sensing wipers, hill assist, telescopic steering wheel, etc.Since 2010, its always been way ahead of its competitors but now it lacks many features and its time it should get a makeover.
