Toyota Fortuner 2008 2009 Intro

Jim Motors' top four sellers are Toyota Hilux Vigo, Toyota Fortuner, Mitsubishi Triton and Nissan Navara but not necessarily in this order. Vigo is still the leader but Triton, Fortuner and Navara are vying for the second position. Some months Fortuner comes second, then a big order of Fortuner comes and Triton is catching up and then Navara fans place a huge order for Nissan Navara and Navara comes second. Please note that Toyota Fortuner is spelled Fortuner and not Toyota Fortuna as some have been known to spell it.

We are currently selling 2008 Toyota Fortuner but minor change 2009 Toyota Fortuner is in the offing. Here are some sneak Images (Pics) and information on upcoming 2009 model Toyota Fortuner. 2009 Toyota Hilux Vigo is also expected next month and we will be first one to report on it and the first one to export new minor change Toyota Hilux Vigo and Toyota Fortuner.

Just as Toyota Vigo took the world with storm, Vigo-based Toyota Fortuner's popularity continues to spread to the farthest shores. It has become so popular that the unthinkable has happened and people are buying it in preference to Toyota Landcruiser Prado and Toyota Landcruiser Cygnus - a feat unthinkable in the past.

The Toyota Fortuner is a luxury sports-utility vehicle (SUV) offering great value at slightly over one million baht. It comes with seven seats, top-notch quality, high performance engine and a fine balance between on- and off-roading capability. This popular SUV is based on wildly popular Hilux Vigo and on luxury Lexus. It comes either with a 2.7-liter petrol (118 bhp @5200 rpm, 241 Nm @ 3800 rpm) or a 3-liter D4D turbo-diesel engine (120 bhp @ 3400 rpm, 343 @ 1400 rpm). Four- or five-speed automatic gearboxes are available.

The all-new Toyota SUV completes the Innovative International Multipurpose Vehicle (IMV) line-up together with the Hilux pick-up, introduced in December 2004 and the Innova Multipurpose Vehicle launched last February.

Toyota's newest SUV is developed in line with the IMV project's global quality standards that aim to produce vehicles that appeal to various markets around the world transcending different regions.

It is a seamless fusion of seeming contradictions. Bold yet refined. Rugged yet stylish. Brimming with power, yet safe as home. A symbol of strength, yet a vision of beauty. Teeming with cutting-edge technology, yet interfaces effortlessly with its master. The new Toyota Fortuner is a luxury SUV unlike any other SUV.

Its uniquely powerful yet stylish look has made it such a hit that many Vigo users are banging on our doors to turn their Vigo G into a Vigo V where we add touches to the interior of the vehicle to add parts and accessories that make Fortuner V an envy of the neighborhood but also changing the front to make it look like a Fortuner. Find more about it in our Vigo page.

Fortuner comes in three models:

• Fortuner 2.7 V 4WD Petrol is available only in Automatic Transmission
• Fortuner 3.0 V 4WD Diesel in Automatic Transmission. It comes with 2 airbags, ABS, turbo intercooler, 7-seater with dual aircons, 6 cd mp3 player, leather seating and parking sensors
• Fortune 3.0 G 4WD Diesel in Manual Transmission. It has 2 airbags  and is a 7-seater but seating is not leather, and without steering controller and parking sensor

Although the car is based on a pick-up its styling is pure SUV with hints at the luxurious Lexus RX300. As mentioned earlier, it is a 7-seater just as its recently introduced local competitor, the Isuzu MU7. These seven seats with a wheelbase of 2750 mm, give us enough space to accommodate the tallest of passengers.

Fortuner replaces Toyota 4Runner (Fourrunner), which is known as Toyota Hilux Condor in some markets and as SportsRider in Thailand and Indonesia.

Like all modern day SUVs, the interiors are car-like, but unlike a car, the Toyota Fortuner is definitely able to handle most kinds of terrain you can throw at them. So you get the comfort of a car with off-road capabilities of a 4x4.

Toyota has decided to go the safe way - and so this will be a ladder-on chassis SUV with all its attendant benefits. The front suspension will have independent double wishbone suspension which should make for good control.

Fortuner has turned Thailand's SUV market upside down. According to Bangkok Post, it has grabbed a 70.4% share of the market by increasing its sales by a whopping 1,204%. The table on the left shows the vehicle sales figures for March 2005. This is what Bangkok Post had to say about these results:

"The Toyota Fortuner's rear coil-spring setup and performance-oriented oil-burner gave the sport-utility segment a much needed boost with first-quarter sales of 9,388 units for an unprecedented 111.4% increase over last year during the same period.

"More than 6,600 customer deliveries of the Fortuner SUV based on Toyota's Innovative International Multi-Purpose Vehicle (IMV) underpinned the performance, while the 1KD-FTV engine delivering 163hp and 363Nm of torque, has pumped new life into the once stagnant SUV segment which sold only 4,442 units in the first quarter last year.

"Toyota literally cornered the SUV market this year as seen by its 70.4% market share and an incredible 1,204.1% jump over last year's first quarter mark.

"This scenario is basically the same as when the previous Sport Rider caused a major stir in SUV sales before the turn of the century."
 

Fortuner has caused a similar stir in the Philippines. According to the Manila Times ABS-CBN:

"We have an average of 100 reservations per dealership," boasted Toyota Motor Philippines PR officer Ariel de Jesus. "We’re already talking 1,300 units here for our Metro Manila dealers alone. Even the Innova didn’t get this kind of response," he added.

"De Jesus was referring to Toyota’s latest product in the market, the Fortuner SUV, and his enthusiasm was based on the fact that the Fortuner was formally launched only last week."

Fortuner's runaway popularity is not surprising. It is an explosive combination of Lexus stylishness and luxury with Hilux Vigo's performance and off-road prowess. Its cutting edge design and sport utility functionality has made a convert of SUV aficionados everywhere. With its overall dimensions of 4,695 millimeter (mm) by 1,840mm by 1,795mm, this SUV is not just the best vehicles in its class but also its biggest member.

Its aerodynamic exterior design incorporates a color-keyed, chrome-accented front grille. The Fortuner’s multi-reflector quad headlamps are not just for aesthetics but for functionality as well, as it enhances night-driving visibility.

Chrome side-view mirrors and door handles emphasize the Fortuner’s touch of class, while the roof rails make it ready for weekend warriors with huge load needs. Black side steps, a higher door frame height (1,105mm), a wider door opening (1,030mm), a lower entry height from ground (360mm) all add convenience in passenger entry and exit.

The Fortuner’s over fenders match well with its 16-inch alloy wheels mounted on all-terrain 265/70R16 tires. The rear spoiler with integrated LED high-mount stop lamps is a handsome and aerodynamic safety feature. Multi-reflector rear combination lamps contribute to the Fortuner’s cohesive rear-end design.

The new Fortuner boasts of a bold exterior design, plush interior, optimum safety features and cutting-edge technology.

The Fortuner's superior packaging combines both the function of an SUV and its cutting-edge design that makes it look great anywhere. With its overall dimensions of 4,695mm by 1,840mm by 1,795mm, it is not just the biggest vehicle in its class, but the most stylish as well.

From this large exterior design comes the Fortuner's spacious interior which gives seven passengers superior comfort, ample leg room space and high quality amenities as reflected by its interior dimensions of 2,880mm (length) by 1,475mm (width) and 1,120mm (1st row to 2nd row maximum distance) and 840mm (2nd row to 3rd raw maximum distance).

Passengers of the new Fortuner will be treated to a comfortable ride with its the plush Moquette-covered seats. Second row seats are capable of 60-40 split, while third row seats are capable of 50-50 split to maximize space for cargo. The driver's seat of the Fortuner has a sporty four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel, a gate-type automatic transmission, and an instrument metal panel center cluster.

The Fortuner is equipped with Optitron meter gauges that are designed for better readability. Other amenities include a 2-din single CD/ MP3-capable head-unit with a six-speaker system that provides state-of-the art audio entertainment and an information display console that updates time, direction, outside temperature and other important functions.

A dual air conditioning system with automatic climate control provides good weather at all times. Accessory power outlets located at the front and rear makes the Fortuner ready for work, play, and even emergencies. The SUV has handy map lights, ample cup and bottle holders and 21 convenience pockets.

Power and Performance

Toyota's incomparable reputation in engineering and technology lies deep within the potent source of the vehicle's power.Perfected by Toyota, the advanced Variable Valve Timing-intelligent (VVT-i) technology provides superior engine power with minimal fuel wastage. That's more than enough for a spirited highway sprint or a treacherous rough road ascent.

The Fortuner 4x2 variant is powered by a 2.7-liter four-cylinder engine that features Toyota’s variable valve timing system called the VVT-i (the "i" stands for intelligent). What VVT-i does, according to Toyota, is it automatically regulates the intake of air and fuel to achieve the optimum ratio according to requirements, thereby providing maximum power combined with maximum fuel efficiency. The entire vehicle may not qualify as tech-savvy but its engine will. It’s rated at 158 horsepower and produces 241 Nm of torque.

Meanwhile, the top-model Fortuner 4x4 packs a 3.0-liter direct-injection, common rail diesel engine called the D-4D. Also an advanced engine, the D-4D features a variable nozzle turbocharger with intercooler, and this boost of fresh air forced to the engine allows it a 161-horsepower rating and a robust 343 Nm of torque all throughout the 1,400-to-3,200-rpm range. Bolt the D-4D to an electronically controlled four-speed automatic transmission and combine it with a full-time four-wheel-drive system and the Fortuner should provide an entertaining ride. (The 4x2 gets the same transmission as the 4x4.)

The Toyota Outstanding Platform (TOP) provides rigidity and control for a more superb driving experience. Equipped with front independent Double-Wishbone Suspension with Coil Springs and Stabilizers plus a rear 4-Link Suspension with Coil Springs and Lateral Rod, the Fortuner grants optimized vehicle stability for a guaranteed comfortable ride.

Styling

Comfort and Luxury

The interior is an excellent study in beauty and subtlety, with ivory hues that soothe the eyes and contours on the dashboard that make perfect design sense. The Fortuner flaunts a deeply recessed instrument gauge cluster, an elegant ergonomic interface and sumptuous cabin with 21 compartments to provide for a unique tactile  experience of luxury and control.

Some of the Fortuner’s luxury car touches are the Toyota-standard Optitron gauges, a device that illuminates the meters whether in day- or nighttime driving, an in-dash CD/MP3 player with six speakers placed around the cabin for maximum acoustics, an information console (a digital clock, compass and thermometer rolled into one), and a dual zone air conditioner. Handy gadgets include power outlets useful for laptops, cell phones and the like, map lights and the requisite bottle and cup holders. Toyota boasts it has designed into the Fortuner’s interior no less than 21 convenience storage bins. Count them—that’s twenty-one.

Safety

Toyota strives to ensure the protection of passengers with a showcase of state-of-the-art active and passive safety features in this urban masterpiece.

The Fortuner is designed with various safety features inside and out. The Anti-lock Braking System or ABS enables the driver to steer the Fortuner to avoid collision, even during hard braking. Life-saving dual SRS Airbags for the driver and passenger reduce the chances of serious injury especially from major frontal collisions. Toyota's Global Outstanding Assessment or GOA puts a premium on passenger on protection and this enables the Fortuner to have a reinforced cabin, side impact beams, head impact protection, special crumple zones, collapsible steering column, and an anti-intrusion brake pedal.

Spacious Interior

The Fortuner’s interior gives seven passengers comfort and ample leg room space as reflected by its interior dimensions of 2,880mm (length) by 1,475mm (width) and 1,120mm (first row to second row maximum distance) and 840mm (second row to third row maximum distance). Ivory hues, sleek contours on its dashboard and an ergonomic interface gives the driver an experience of luxury and control.

Moquette-covered second row seats are capable of 60-40 split, while third row seats are capable of 50-50 split to maximize space for cargo. Its sporty four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel, a gate-type automatic transmission and an instrument metal panel center cluster maximize the driving pleasure.

The Fortuner is equipped with optitron meter gauges. A two-din single CD/MP3-capable head-unit with a six-speaker system provide state-of-the art audio entertainment while a multi-information display console that updates time, direction, outside temperature and other important functions bring convenience to the driver.

Dual air conditioning system with automatic climate control provides good weather at all times. Accessory power outlets located at the front and rear makes the Fortuner ready for work, play and even emergencies. Handy map lights, ample cup and bottle holders and twenty-one convenience pockets reveals practicality.

The true measure of the Fortuner’s power is found in the heart of this vehicle -- either a 3.0-liter Toyota D4D Diesel Engine or a 2.7-liter VVT-i engine. It generates the highest horse power of 120 kilowatt/3400 rpm.

The 3.0 Liter DOHC 16 valves Direct Injection Common Rail Diesel Engine, with a full-time 4X4 Drive-Train is equipped with a variable nozzle turbo-intercooler maximized with 163 PS through 343 Newton-meter of torque at 1,400 to 3,200 rpm, the highest in its class.

Meanwhile, a responsive and smoother show of power is provided by the 2.7-liter DOHC four-cylinder 16-valves Variable Valve Timing Intelligent (VVT-i) 4X2 gasoline (petrol) engine. The VVT-i engine is capable of 160 PS and a respectable 241 Newton-meter of torque at 3800 rpm that delivers great power but can accelerate quickly with minimum of noise. It generates maximum horse power of 118 kilowatt/5200 rpm.

Enhancing the Fortuner’s strength is its Toyota Outstanding Platform or TOP, coupled with a solid but pliant suspension and advanced noise vibration and harshness reduction materials to significantly reduce noise, vibration and harshness level inside the cabin.

Passengers in the backseat are expected to have a comfortable ride because the Fortuner is equipped with an independent double-wishbone with coil spring and stabilizer at the front, and a four-link suspension with coil spring and lateral rod at the rear.

The Fortuner is designed with safety features inside and out. The Anti-lock Braking System or ABS enables the driver to steer the Fortuner to avoid collision, even during hard braking. Also it has dual SRS airbags, a reinforced cabin, side impact beams, a head impact protection, special crumple zones, a collapsible steering column and an anti-intrusion brake pedal.

The following optional accessories are also available: bumper corner protector, front sunshade, hood protector, gear shift lock, scuff plate, luggage tray, muffler cutter and spare wheel lock.

The following colors are available: Super White II, Silver Metallic, Grayish Brown Metallic, Black Mica and Dark Gray Mica Metallic.

Here are some other features:-
Front and rear suspension
Front suspension is double wishbone with coil spring and stabilizer bar. Rear suspension is 4-link coil spring for smoothness and balance on highway and off road.

Full time 4-wheel drive
High and low gear can be shifted according to road conditions. Moreover, Torsen-type limited slip at differential gear supports the power transferring between front and rear wheels so the balancing and controlling are better and more precise on the curve.

Lineage

Sports utility vehicles have evolved from the 1970’s cross-country vehicles to the 1990s, where the term “SUV�� became best known for a vehicle that can serve a dual purpose of urbaniness and utility. As the global leader in the SUV category with models like the Land Cruiser 100, Prado, and Sequoia, the new Fortuner carries the same soul but with its own distinct character reflecting the 21st century urban lifestyle. The Fortuner is set to lead the SUV market with the best balance of an urban image complemented by its rugged and tough features.

Inside and Outside

The new Fortuner’s superior packaging combines both the function of an SUV and its cutting-edge design that makes it look great anywhere the driver takes it. With its overall dimensions of 4,695mm by 1,840mm by 1,795mm, it is not just the biggest vehicle in its class, but the most stylish as well. Its eye-catching, aerodynamic exterior design incorporates a color-keyed, chrome-accented front grille that gleams with sophistication. The Fortuner’s multi-reflector quad headlamps are not just for aesthetics but for functionality as well, that also features enhanced night-driving visibility. Multi-reflector fog lamps beautifully integrated to its wrap-around bumper, prepare the driver for vision-hampering challenges ahead.

Chrome side-view mirrors and door handles emphasize a touch of class, while the sporty roof rails make it ready for weekend warriors who require huge load requirements. Black side steps, a high door frame height (1,105mm), a wide door opening (1,030mm), a low entry height from the ground (360mm) all add convenience in passenger entry and exit. The Fortuner’s over fenders are a perfect match to its 16-inch alloy wheels, mounted on high-profile all-terrain 265/70R16 tires that exude a rugged symmetry. The rear spoiler comes standard with integrated LED high-mount stop lamp as an aerodynamic safety feature. Multi-reflector rear combination lamps are highly visible and effective and contribute to the cohesive rear design.

From this large exterior design comes the Fortuner’s spacious interior which gives seven passengers superior comfort, ample leg room space and high quality amenities as reflected by its interior dimensions of 2,880mm (length) by 1,475mm (width) and 1,120mm (maximum distance from first row to second row) and 840mm (maximum distance from second row to third row).

Plush moquette comfortably seats seven adult passengers. Second row seats are capable of 60-40 split, while third row seats are capable of 50-50 split to maximize space for cargo. The driver’s seat of the Fortuner has a feel of commanding pleasure that is further emphasized by its sporty four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel, a gate-type automatic transmission and optitron gauges with instrument metal panel center cluster.

Other special amenities found in this new SUV include a 2-DIN single CD/MP3-capable head-unit with a six-speaker system that provide audio entertainment and a multi-information display console that updates time, direction, outside temperature and other important functions. Also, dual air conditioning system with automatic climate control provides good weather at all times. Accessory power outlets located at the front and rear makes the Fortuner ready for work, play and emergencies. Handy map lights, ample cup and bottle holders, and twenty-one convenience pockets within the interior provide occupants with more than ample places for all kinds of bric-a-brac.

The Fortuner’s grunt and (lateral) grace

The Fortuner’s outstanding qualities are glaring in its exterior and interior features, but the true measure of its power is found in the heart of this vehicle – either a three-liter D4-D Diesel Engine or a 2.7-liter VVT-i engine.

The three-liter Direct Injection Common Rail Diesel Engine, with a full-time 4X4 drivetrain, is perfectly complemented with an electronically-controlled automatic transmission system. Equipped with a variable nozzle turbo-intercooler, its inherent power is thoroughly maximized with 161 hp and a whopping 253 lbs ft of torque at 1,400-3,200RPM. Toyota’s common rail technology equips the engine with a computer-controlled central fuel injector, which enables the engine to burn fuel at the highest degree of consistency, accuracy and efficiency, resulting to better fuel consumption, and a cleaner exhaust emissions.

A responsive and smoother show of power, on the other hand, is provided by the 2.7-liter, four-cylinder Variable Valve Timing with intelligence (VVT-i) 4X2 gas engine. The VVT-i engine automatically regulates the intake of air and fuel to achieve the optimum maximum ratio in response to the driver’s requirements, thus providing maximum delivery of power with zero fuel wastage, all in a powerful 158 hp and a respectable 178 lbs ft of torque.

Enhancing the Fortuner’s strength is its Toyota Outstanding Platform or TOP, coupled with a solid but pliant suspension and advanced noise vibration and harshness reduction materials to significantly reduce noise, vibration, and harshness level inside the cabin.

Passengers in the in the back seat are expected to have a comfortable ride because the Fortuner is equipped with an independent double-wishbone with coil spring and stabilizer at the front and a four-link suspension with coil spring and lateral rod at the rear. With all these combined together, the Fortuner’s suspension system reward its occupants the benefits of a solid, stable ride no matter how rough the roads get.

This automotive juggernaut not only has taken the coveted triple crown of automobile sales (biggest overall, passenger car and commercial vehicle market share) for the past three years, but has also taken 2005’s first quarter auto sales triple crown.
