Auto Review Content:
Toyota is probably one of the first manufacturers that has been famous for its SUVs for many years, Land Cruiser, Rav4 are the most famous, Fortuner is considered one of these legends, in some countries it is also known as SW4.
Toyota Fortuner exterior upgrade
Looking at the Fortuner, you can immediately say that there is little left of the old outside. Let's go inspect the 2016 model in a circle and compare it with the 2015 model, as motorists say differently, new model this is a complete restyling from the previous one, or a new generation.
Front Fortuner has changed completely large grill radiator, replaced with a smaller one. Instead of three chrome-plated separating jumpers, only two were left, some believe that there is a third jumper, but judging by the photos, it serves more to emphasize the grille than as a jumper. The Toyota emblem in the previous model was located at the top of the grille, in the new model it was placed exactly in the middle. On the sides of the grille are two chrome inserts that run from the top of the bumper, along the side of the headlights and above the headlights and up to the hood. In the previous model, this was not the case, all this was compensated by a large grille. In all trim levels, the grille is chrome, Bi-Beam LED headlights, 2.4G 2WD MT are equipped with halogen headlights. Also in configuration Fortuner headlights are automatically adjusted.
Speaking of the bumper, the forms have definitely changed, but it still occupies - from the whole "face" of the Toyota Fortuner. The designers decided to keep the proportions of the lower bumper grille and left the same dimensions, but the bumper around the grille became more convex and streamlined. All equipment includes fog lamps with chrome rims all around. The color of the bumper, both front and rear, is matched to the color of the body.
The 2016 model will be available to customers in five trim levels, these are: 2.8V 4WD AT, 2.8V 2WD AT, 2.7V 2WD AT, 2.4V 2WD AT, 2.4G 2WD MT.
The side of the Toyota Fortuner has been redesigned, with a sharper curve at the bottom of the doors, which was smoother and rounder on the previous model. A small protrusion was made on the back door near the glass, which is emphasized by a chrome edging around the entire bottom of the glass. Such an unusual protrusion, at first glance, makes the Toyota Fortuner even more attractive and updated. Partition between back door and additional glass V old model made the design a little messed up. In the new model, this is fixed thanks to the large glass that covers the jumper. On the doors there are chrome handles, which are included in all configurations. Steps are located under the doors, or as they are called Side Steps, in all trim levels, without exception, they are black. Rear-view mirrors are painted to match the body color. In all Fortuner mirrors with turn signal and electrical adjustment.
The back of the Toyota Fortuner has completely changed its shape. The rear feet have become long from the side of the rear fender and almost to the middle of the tailgate. The possibility of electronic opening and closing of the tailgate is excluded only in 2.4G 2WD MT, it is available in other trim levels. However, some details have been left out. So, for example, they left a chrome jumper between rear lights with Fortuner lettering, rear window spoiler with stop repeater. The spare wheel still remained under the trunk and is attached from the outside under the bottom of the Toyota Fortuner. The exhaust is not particularly happy, many believe that it should be improved and made more attractive, stylish and aggressive, since a piece of pipe is clearly visible at high ground clearance, the feeling that it was taken from a cheap car. A janitor was placed on the glass itself rear window.
Mudguards have been added as an addition to protection and comfort. Roof bars are also fitted as a standard set, making the SUV even more attractive and convenient for transporting cargo on the roof.
According to the body color of the Toyota Fortuner, the following will be available on the market:

The minimum turning radius of Fortuner is 5.8 m, the tank is designed for 80 l. fuel.
Speaking about the body of the Fortuner, we can say that the changes in the design are dramatic, it would not be bad to make it wider, since at speed entering a sharp turn, there is a chance that the car may tip over on its side. Weight Fortuner 1720 - 1795 kg. and depends on the configuration.
Despite the performance of the speedometer in the maximum 200 km / h. The maximum that Fortuner can develop is 160 km / h.
New interior of Toyota Fortuner
Like the exterior Toyota interior Fortuner has undergone changes. Looking around the interior of any configuration, I would like to draw attention to the fact that all interior colors are made in black. Unlike other models, the Toyota Fortuner does not offer a choice of light upholstery, as in the previous model. But still, the seats do not come in the color of the upholstery, so in the configuration of the 2.8V 4WD AT the seats are cream, in other trim levels only brown, although they say that they can be black with a special order.
As for the material that the Fortuner seats are covered with, it is leather and leatherette, no matter how it sounds, but synthetic leather is really used, in the 2.4G 2WD MT configuration, fabric seat upholstery.
In the previous Fortuner model, the front seats were ordinary and did not stand out from other models of SUVs of this class, in new Fortuner designers decided to use sports seats in all configurations. Such a change not only adorned the interior, but also made it more comfortable for long distances. The front seats are adjusted and adjusted electronically, only in the 2.4G 2WD MT configuration, standard manual, mechanical adjustment. The second and third row of seats are ordinary, but just as comfortable and convenient.
Toyota Fortuner door trim, also black, with gray inserts and chrome handles, illuminated power window control buttons built near the door handle.
The front console is the first thing people notice when they get into a car. IN new Toyota Fortuner, she has completely changed. The entire console is upholstered in leatherette with gray inserts. On the top of the console and on the sides are holes for air supply.
The instrument panel of the Fortuner has also changed, the dial has become modern, and is well viewed, the backlight is pleasant to the eye, from which you do not get tired even after a long drive. In all trim levels, there is a speedometer on the right, a tachometer on the left, and an on-board computer display is located between them, which shows engine status, fuel consumption, distance traveled and other functions associated with Toyota Fortuner.
There is a steering wheel in front of the dashboard, all trim levels include multifunction steering wheel controls, covered in leather with gray stitching. You can adjust the steering wheel both in height and in depth.
Between the steering wheel and the instrument panel, there is a Start / Stop button for the engine, as well as levers for controlling cruise control functions, Eco mode, lights, and wipers.
In the middle of the Fortuner console, the designers placed a large TFT touchscreen display. Above the display, there are two air holes, between them there is an emergency stop button and an electronic clock. Under the display is a climate control panel. Cooling is designed for three rows of seats, that is, three-zone climate control, the Toyota Fortuner interior is cooled both from below and from above. An ashtray, two cup holders and chargers are located under the climate control panel. One for 12V DC, the second USB for charging various gadgets. For the second row of seats, charging is available at 220V AC, with the ability to connect larger devices, this is new for Fortuner, since you will not find an outlet in every SUV. A little lower is the gear lever and handbrake.
IN standard equipment Fortuner includes Smart Key, with remote control, central locking with feedback. Despite the off-road class, all control buttons and possible mechanisms are illuminated and are convenient to drive at night.
A new generation audio system, all configurations include touch displays with DVD support, only in the 2.4G 2WD MT configuration the display is not touch and for CD discs. Bluetooth is included in all configurations, to control the audio system, and hand-free. Navigation and voice recognition are available on all Fortuner trims except 2.4G 2WD MT. As standard, all models have six speakers, the radio antenna is made in the form of a shark's fin and is located on the roof, above the third row of seats. Two arcs were placed along the roof, thanks to which it is possible to transport oversized cargo or put an additional trunk.
Fortuner SUV Safety
As in any SUV, safety in the Toyota Fortuner takes no last place. An immobilizer is included as standard on all trim levels. front except for fog lights, arranged daytime running lights. On rear spoiler placed an additional stop repeater. So standard sets we can say about the heated rear window and seat belts in three rows, ABS systems and EBD.
Not least important for Fortuner is the vehicle control stabilization system, TRC and TSC. The rear view camera is available for 2.8V 4WD AT, 2.8V 2WD AT, 2.7V 2WD AT, 2.4V 2WD AT trim levels.
Pillows SRS security for the driver and passenger in all Fortuner trim levels, but the side ones are not available for the 2.4G 2WD MT configuration.
For the 2.8V 4WD AT, a DAC system is available to help the driver navigate and understand the Fortuner's condition when driving on steep slopes or inclines, shows body tilt and other information.
In a word, Fortuner developers did not skimp on auxiliary systems for the driver and safety for passengers in general. Although some critics say the Fortuner is tall relative to the width of the car, so it's easy to roll over on a sharp turn or on a good lean.
