The Toyota Fortuner 2025 comes back stronger with a striking design evolution that maintains its signature road presence. The updated styling includes a more aggressive front fascia with a new hexagonal grille, sharper LED projector headlamps, and redesigned DRLs. Its sculpted bumper, beefed-up wheel arches, and fresh dual-tone alloy wheels further add to its muscular appeal. At the rear, updated LED tail lamps and a broader stance give the Fortuner a more premium SUV vibe while retaining its off-road DNA. The 2025 version balances toughness with luxury like never before.
Spacious, Tech-Loaded and Premium Inside
Inside the new Fortuner, Toyota has given the cabin a much-needed tech refresh. The dashboard now features a larger 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. Premium leather upholstery, ambient lighting, a panoramic sunroof (in select trims), and connected car tech give the SUV a luxurious edge. The seats remain wide and supportive, offering top-tier comfort in all three rows. Enhanced NVH insulation and soft-touch surfaces elevate the overall in-cabin experience. The second-row recline and air vents for all rows make it ideal for long-distance family travel.
Diesel Dominance with a Potential Hybrid Twist
Under the hood, the Fortuner 2025 retains the trusted 2.8L turbo diesel engine, delivering 204 PS and 500 Nm of torque, paired with either a 6-speed manual or 6-speed automatic gearbox. Toyota is also rumored to introduce a mild hybrid diesel variant in international markets, and a similar update may arrive in India later in 2025. The Fortuner’s legendary 4×4 drivetrain with electronic differential lock and low-range gearbox ensures confidence on hills, trails, and broken roads. Its ladder-frame chassis and excellent approach-departure angles make it one of the best off-roaders in its class.
Top-Tier Safety and Reliability
Toyota has upgraded safety in the 2025 Fortuner with ADAS features like lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and collision avoidance system in higher trims. Standard safety includes 7 airbags, ABS with EBD, vehicle stability control, and ISOFIX mounts. Toyota’s reputation for reliability and low maintenance adds to the SUV’s long-term ownership appeal. With its proven track record, the Fortuner continues to be a popular choice for both urban elites and adventure seekers.
Price in India and Rivals
The Toyota Fortuner 2025 is priced from ₹33.43 lakhs to ₹51.44 lakhs (ex-showroom), depending on the variant and drivetrain. It competes with the MG Gloster, Jeep Meridian, Skoda Kodiaq, and even entry-level luxury SUVs like the Volkswagen Tiguan and Citroen C5 Aircross. Yet, the Fortuner’s resale value, reliability, and off-road capabilities give it a distinct edge in the segment.
Conclusion: The Toyota Fortuner 2025 is a bold, luxurious, and mechanically proven SUV that continues to dominate the Indian premium SUV space. With updates in design, tech, and safety, it remains the go-to choice for anyone seeking a powerful and versatile full-size SUV.
