i'm indonesian and already upgrading to this latest 2016 fortuner since february, replacing my old 2009 fortuner (2.5 diesel). here several points that i can mention to you : (+) improvement : - design (but this really depends on the personal taste, beauty is in the eye of the beholder) but for me the rear and side of this latest fortuner are really georgeous... -much better refinement (NVH overall much better, the interior is now whisper-quite compared to previous gen rugged,harsh and noisy fortuner interior. The engine when idle is also very silent from interior it's even hard to tell that it's a diesel from inside when idle.. different story when you pushed it hard from the stop, cruising in the highway at 100-140km/h is relaxing and quite though ) -better ride comfort (still not as plush as a Camry or even a Prado) but to me, overall it feels like the new fortuner has 40% softer ride than previous car (no more bone-jarring at low speed) yet it still felt very stable at 180km/h speed just like its predecessor -much better interior (more plush/luxury feel) the seats are now much much much better cushioned and has better support too.. feels like a bargain land-cruiser...kudo to toyota for the interior job.. since they also adding real leather ornaments onto several parts of the interior (particulary the dashboard and center console) - better "gimmick". Now the new Fortuner has some "fancy-toys" like a luxury suv... such as power back door, alphard-like speedometer and MID cluster design, all-Led interior lights, cooler box for drinks, digital rear ac, welcome-light under doors mirros,etc. (-) drawback : - engine power (while the 2.4 new diesel offers 150hp, 400Nm figure compared to the previous gen's 2.5 diesel 144 hp, 350nm) but the increased extra power doesnt felt really noticeable since the new fortuner is also significantly bigger and heavier than its predecessor, eventhough never felt underpowered or lack of power in most situation ... - significantly more expensive.. (maybe due to the extra gimmick, better NVH, etc) and now is the worst drawback compared to the previous gen fortuner! - LACK OF CABIN SPACE! due to more comfortable,bolder cushioned & bigger seats, now the interior space is never felt as vast or spacious as my old foruner.. and what makes it even worse is the fact that now the interior is offered in black-only color which makes you feel even more cramped inside (it used to be offered in beige color which makes the interior felt airy and more spacious)... and now the 3rd no longer comfortable for adults more than 165cm height.. (i really remember the previous gen fortuner 3rd row is spacious enough to fit 173-175cm adults)
sorry maybe too long. but the conclusion is that i've never regret my decision to replacing my old fortuner with this 2016 fortuner model, a much better (and more premium) suv over-all compared to my previous Fortuner.
+Kelvin i considered it once but the resale value of fortuner is much better than pajero sport, here in my country... after 5 years of use, i can still get 50% the price of new price (for example, buying fortuner in 2009 for 38.000$, and sell it in 2014 for 19.000$), different story with pajero sport, i can only get 35-40% of the new car price after 5 years.. regardless the resale value, i personally think new pajero sport is better all-rounder compared to new fortuner (specially in term of driving dynamic, seating position (much more ergonomic for driving position compared to fortuner), ride quality and perfomance) but in term of luxury-feels (interior material & build quality) and gadget-gimmick fortuner win hands down.. it has several fancy-suv-ish gimmick such as power back door, leather covered dashboard, dashboard cool box and digital climate control AC for the rear passangers (oh yeah, and better design too specially for the rear)
Ford Endeavour seems to be a much better choice as the 2200cc version of the endeavour seems a much spirited car than the fortuner .However Toyota has legendary reliability which Ford can never match .
Rajat Jain Its not a big issue as some have been claiming to be, I own a Ford and its been fantastic experience far better than Maruti experience So its not like its bad to be avoided,its as good or better than Hyundai,but not as good as Honda,Toyota,Maruti overall, Still the superiority of the product cannot be completely avoided due to weaker after sales I guess.
Ponygt 662 After Sales & Service can kill a very good product . Volkswagen Polo is a solidly built car but extremely poor After Sales & Service killed it . If something breaks down in your mechanical masterpiece the service centre should be able to fix it , that's not the case with FORD . Also the spares are very hard to come by & extremely costly .
Rajat Jain Again that used to be the case with older Fords, now the newer Fords post 2010 is way better than what it used to be, Ford also has 25 retail spares and parts seller other than service centres in India, so one can always check price of parts as well, Also service costs and time has significantly reduced since 2010, The brand is haunted by its past horror stories, Thats Y I wrote b4, lets give em a chance, because as of now they ve changed a lot and we Indians dont give em a chance to prove them
Would be good to have a head-to-head between the new Fortuner & Endeavor! Its out there is all foreign channels, please have it done for Indian versions as well!
I think, Toyota should reconsider their policy of only offering the 2,8 liter engine in the 4WD model. Several motoring journalists have already complained, that the 2,4 liter feel a bit sluggish when mated to the automatic gearbox. The 2,8 liter engine would likely solve that problem and bring the power for the 2WD models in line with competitors like the Pajero Sport.
while people buy the fortuner mostly for its rugged & built looks, I don't think it has enough going in terms of performance & power to justify its higher 5-6 lakhs price point over the Innova.
Ford Endeavour seems more promising - Better interiors - Easy fold power seats third row - More power - All terrain modes - Wider power band - Better vehicle dynamics, especially around corners But a head to head will settle the battle On the other hand, no wonder this will more based on the trend it has set in the market :)
How is the Fortuner 2.8 4x2 MT? It does not even have ESP and Brake assist. Also I want to know wether the 4X2 Manual Diesel Fortuner has ATRAC, i.e. Active Traction control? Kindly guide me and give your views on wether buying a 2.8 4X2 Manual Fortuner without ESP and Brake assist will be OK and safe. Thank you Awaiting for your response Regards
it wouldnt be just to root one's opinion about the vehicle on interiors or ride quality based on an SE Asia launch (much like what you did with the crysta); through kirloskar, toyota does seem determined to open its doors to customers in india who are seeking a vehicle with global standards or shall i say the toyota standard. cheers.
fortuner 2016 : ugly front-end, beautiful rear-end pajero sport 2016 : handsome front-end, ugly rear-end everest (or Endeavour in India) : average front-end, average rear-end > but i think it's safer to be this way
rajat singh Clearly, but the ban could extend to other states in near future. The future of diesel vehicles looks bleak in India, better switch to petrol/ hybrid/ electric/ CNG.
this is review by Autocar India. .... BUt why the car's registration number is B 1400 UJW, which is from Jakarta Indonesia ? Did you come all the way from India to Jakarta for this video ?
No matter how good endeavour is,
Fortuner has gained a huge name
It is my dream car in future

never consider the pajero sport?
cabin space. if its everything in a car for me. its cabin space. if what you say is true. then im off for the everest. thanks for your opinion.

give me date of its launch
Anyone else got this recommended again in 2021?
when is it coming in India ?
2017
No matter however it is, it will continue to sell more than the Ford Endeavour!
+Aditya Sawant How can you say that?!
How do you know?
I am talking about India
Well time will tell!
+Aviral Pandey ford endeavour has took over fortuner on it's horn , and this new one is much ugly than old one
My dad was planning to take this car....but this not yet released in India...I loved this car
when it is launching in india ??
Should be here by 2017 because Toyota is dumping old stocks here.
excellent car, Model, look drive nice,
Dream car , with all new features.
Kamal keer
Hii
AUTO CAR introduction is nice
I am seriously reconsidering getting the 4runner. I love this
Fortuner is better than endeavour in the long run, just can't wait for this car to launch in india!
Adnan Mohammed Sales Toyota
Adnan Mohammed
it has realise in india it's a good suv car👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👌👌👌👌☺😊😊😋😮
But sunroof is drawback
This is my dream car but I can't buy it right now. ...pray for me so that I can buy it soon😍😍😍😄
You will bro
Sujjad Meer best of luck
U don't need prays u need hard work.
It's been three years, how close are you to buying one? 😁
Im in love with this beast
luxurious exterior n interior.. in my opinion fortuner is the best big suv
Check the New Ford Endeavor first...
+kingfisher111 yes i already saw it but i am still say that fortuner is really better
Ford Endeavour seems to be a much better choice as the 2200cc version of the endeavour seems a much spirited car than the fortuner .However Toyota has legendary reliability which Ford can never match .
+Rajat Jain
Well the new Endevour is now in market and I hope we all must give ita chance before finalizing on reliability of Ford
Ponygt 662 Ford cars are awesome but After Sales & service is a big issue in India
Rajat Jain
Its not a big issue as some have been claiming to be,
I own a Ford and its been fantastic experience far better than Maruti experience
So its not like its bad to be avoided,its as good or better than Hyundai,but not as good as Honda,Toyota,Maruti overall,
Still the superiority of the product cannot be completely avoided due to weaker after sales I guess.

Again that used to be the case with older Fords, now the newer Fords post 2010 is way better than what it used to be,
Ford also has 25 retail spares and parts seller other than service centres in India, so one can always check price of parts as well,
Also service costs and time has significantly reduced since 2010,
The brand is haunted by its past horror stories,
Thats Y I wrote b4, lets give em a chance, because as of now they ve changed a lot and we Indians dont give em a chance to prove them
I just bought the 2018 verison of the Fortuner..pretty cool but I dont like the seats, the very back seats that fold up
Would be good to have a head-to-head between the new Fortuner & Endeavor! Its out there is all foreign channels, please have it done for Indian versions as well!
Man do I wish Toyota made this car available in the US. It looks fantastic! ☺
+Armaan Tondon for real dude !? we have far better looking highlander and 4runner! but i respect your opinion though! have a good one!
That car is not safe, not safe enough for US standards.
Now this looks top class
Best in class....Best SUV, Best brand name
Alreeady loosing to Endeavor and in karnataka it will be priced at around 39 pluse !! is it worth it !!!
2:44 no two knobs anymore ?
Excellent review!, insightful and well scripted, good job!
while turning in curves...... stability seems vibrating and zigzagging.....
Which is better looking colour on the fortuner, *freedom white* or *pearl white*? Correct me if im wrong but why is the pearl white more expensive?
I'm waiting for launch in India...I want to buy this SUV as Soon as possible
Is it in indonesia??😃
Can you guys do a comparison test of the 2016 Endeavour and 2016 Fortuner
When is this car launching in india?
TRUE..this is extremely an under-powered SUV.
New Fortuner is nice but first model was awesome
Welcome to Indonesia !
Lol
Nurzaman Faiq Hahaha, iya juga sih. Mending versi Thailand
Arya Pradhana D dan penyematan krom krom norak nya 😂😂
Waiting for the launch.Advanced move by Autocar India

is it confirmed it is coming this diwali....heard it got postponed...any firm reports on the launch date....thx
when it is going to be launch in india.
Eagerly waiting for fortune vs endeavour india
i think after watching ford endeavour review & new fotruner... it seems endeavour is better in all aspects
Well said
Maybe. Except that the Endeavour is drop dead ugly and will not be as reliable as Toyota. The boxy and unrefine physical appearance is a pity.
Ford cars are unreliable...And toyota has set a benchmark in reliability
fortuner is a beautyl..
while people buy the fortuner mostly for its rugged & built looks, I don't think it has enough going in terms of performance & power to justify its higher 5-6 lakhs price point over the Innova.
When is it coming to india ??
great
Ford Endeavour seems more promising
- Better interiors
- Easy fold power seats third row
- More power
- All terrain modes
- Wider power band
- Better vehicle dynamics, especially around corners
But a head to head will settle the battle
On the other hand, no wonder this will more based on the trend it has set in the market :)
OMG Finally reach
welcome to INDONESIA !
When to expect bsv1 compliant fortuner?
Endeavour must be good in terms of features but fortuned is hard core suv
nice and exilent bring fortune is fortuner cars
When will 2018 model will be released??
And what would be the difference and new things??
How is the Fortuner 2.8 4x2 MT?
It does not even have ESP and Brake assist.
Also I want to know wether the 4X2 Manual Diesel Fortuner has ATRAC, i.e. Active Traction control?
Kindly guide me and give your views on wether buying a 2.8 4X2 Manual Fortuner without ESP and Brake assist will be OK and safe.
Thank you
Awaiting for your response
Regards
when this car is going to release in india
This car is also attractive and Stupendous.
when it will launch in India..eagerly waiting to drive..I saw that in Bangkok,Kuala Lumpur and Singapore too..
good choice..instrument interior looks luxurious....all newfortuner is the prominet leader
Ford Endeavour is d prominent leader..Rofl
please do a comparison between new fortuner, new endeavour and trialblazer
Looks like accura mdx from outside.. good value for money!
It looks very good
looks good but can it beat the ford endeavour it is a question but it has improved in all the ways but i think it is better to own a ford
My dad should get this , he has the first fortune model !
The Beast In Its All New Avtaar
Is it pearl white Crystal colour
its launched in south eastern Asia, Australia and even middle eastern countries, so when it gonna launch in India
+ansari ansar sometime around diwali according to sources
still not yet launched
is there any latest update about this suv
ansari ansar 7th November launch
How heavy is it compared to the innova crysta
it wouldnt be just to root one's opinion about the vehicle on interiors or ride quality based on an SE Asia launch (much like what you did with the crysta);
through kirloskar, toyota does seem determined to open its doors to customers in india who are seeking a vehicle with global standards or shall i say the toyota standard.
cheers.
Watching this in 2022 lol😂 Now it’s priced at 45 lakhs on road
must watch all fortuner loverz
I love toyota fortuner nice look
How is the mileage of this car? I'm planning to buy one
another 10 lakh price increase lol
.
nope. its not... same price coming
mohd shakir hahaha bro just wait and see.. its coming for 30 lakh.. already launched in Singapore
Yeah! Absolutely true. When they can price innova crysta at 20L, this will for sure be priced at 30L.
+Aditya Sundar crysta is of 24
Sir does trd comes with 4x4 model
what is the price
My dream car. So great car
fortuner 2016 : ugly front-end, beautiful rear-end
pajero sport 2016 : handsome front-end, ugly rear-end
everest (or Endeavour in India) : average front-end, average rear-end > but i think it's safer to be this way
in 2022 the top spec fortuner is priced at 50 lakh indian rupees.
This car has paddle shifters?
this fortuner is amazing I like it very much
gangster car .. super
please revew land cruiser j200
I like the fortuner very much
The middle East version's PETROL engine kicks ass
In India, you can find Fortuner with every politician however small he/she is.
Guess it is the best car money can buy for Indian conditions...
Which is better,ford endeavor or new fortuner
Fk V obviously fortuner
do a comparison video of fortuner and innovative cryataa
Now its 45 lacks
With the 2000cc+ diesel vehicle ban in Delhi (a major market for luxury SUVs), what is the point of this launch?
to sell it in rest of the states :p
rajat singh Clearly, but the ban could extend to other states in near future. The future of diesel vehicles looks bleak in India, better switch to petrol/ hybrid/ electric/ CNG.
@@dontusehername how is diesel ban looking aftee two years!!?
Looks elegant and aggressive.
My favorite car.... I love
I though you shoot it in Thailand where the Fortuner originated.
this is review by Autocar India. .... BUt why the car's registration number is B 1400 UJW, which is from Jakarta Indonesia ? Did you come all the way from India to Jakarta for this video ?
aminta ginting.....at the beginning he mentioned it....its yet not released in india
Why did they remove the 3.0 litre option
+Devansh Vithlani because the new 2.8 litre engine is more powerful and much more efficient
Nah !! The interiors of the Ford Endeavor are richer.
Yeahhh
Maybe. Except that the Endeavour is drop dead ugly and will not be as reliable as Toyota. The boxy and unrefine physical appearance is a pity.
THE KING RELOADED
wow amazing car
how much this car in india
Will this thing get an automatic transmission on the 4x4 variant ?
toyota is a one of the best cars in world. ..
I must like fortuner nice car
Autocrat India: Please do the review of 2016 Pajero Sport.
What is a body on frame car?
the construction of the body is just like a truck. it was two parts , a body and a frame that joined . also called ladder frame
what's the price?
