New Fortuner arriving in August 2020
Following the announcement of the updated Toyota HiLux (read all about it here), the CMI Toyota team are excited to let you know Toyota Australia has unveiled a mid-life upgrade for the seven-seat Fortuner SUV!
The new Fortuner elevates its visual appeal while assembling multiple improvements to engine, driving and towing performance.

Due in Australia in late August, Fortuner's bold exterior styling is refreshed with a more premium look, reflecting the vehicle's dual role as a comfortable urban transporter and a rugged off-road explorer.
But the most significant changes are under the skin where new and revised engine components result in noticeable gains to output with sizeable cuts to fuel consumption.
New and uprated components have resulted in an even more robust 2.8-litre turbo-diesel engine, enabling maximum power to rise to 150kW and torque to peak at 500Nm.
While delivering impressive gains of 20kW and 50Nm, additional measures including improved cooling have enabled fuel consumption to be reduced across the board, particularly in city driving where the improvement is more than 17 per cent.
Another significant customer benefit from the upgraded Fortuner is a 300kg increase in the maximum braked towing capacity to 3,100kg.
The updated Fortuner will retain its familiar GX, GXL and Crusade equipment grades, each displaying a unique surround for the larger black grille, restyled bumpers with a "skid-plate design" underrun, more prominent foglamp bezels, and slimmer headlamps upgraded to LEDs. Crusade is equipped with a new LED taillight cluster.
Inside, customer infotainment expectations are met through the adoption of a larger 8-inch display screen (was 7") that supports Apple CarPlay®* and Android Auto™^ smartphone integration and advanced features including enhanced voice activation.
Satellite navigation and digital (DAB) radio is available with the GX and standard on the GXL and Crusade.
Australian's have bought more than 15,000 Fortuner SUVs, an average of more than 3,000 a year since its mid-2015 introduction.
