The diesel engine of the Fortuner may not have changed in terms of displacement, but don’t judge a book by its cover. The new engine now puts out 204PS and 500Nm, an extra punch of 27PS and up to 80Nm over the outgoing model. However, torque output for the manual variant is limited to 420Nm, which is the same as before. The increased grunt also takes it a notch above the Endeavour and Alturas G4, on paper. That being said, the Gloster’s twin-turbo unit is the most powerful, at 218PS.
In addition to the diesel motor, the facelifted Fortuner retains its 166PS 2.7-litre petrol engine which gets the option of a 5-speed manual and 6-speed automatic gearbox. This makes the Fortuner the only model in its segment to get a manual transmission option. These motors drive the rear wheels only. The diesel engine also gets a 6-speed MT and a four-wheel drivetrain option.
