Andrew I bought a 2010 Fortuner yesterday with 79,000kms on the clock. Still has its 2010 tyres on(!), accident free with some cosmetic touch ups required. Your video convinced me it was a no brainer. Thank you for your content.
Thanks... you are right. They say the 80 was developed during Toyota's finest hour. I have a 105 - just as good as the 80 but bigger - which can have its drawbacks. I really like my 105! Fortuner such a good mix for off and on road, but many complain about its firm on-road ride. They expect the ride of a Prado with the off-road performance of a 76! It can never happen! Andrew
Crisp and clear review. I agree on the engine part this thing literally pulls from 1000 rpm and has alot of grunt. Just completed 1,00,000 kms on the truck with no issues what so ever. Only thing i miss is we in India dont get rear locker as standard.
Thankfully here in South Africa we still get a Land Cruiser 70-series wagon and pickup... utilitarian workhorses and they are excellent and as tough as nails.
Very good review. I like it because you have done it in actual and drove the Fortuner. This is SUV is the benchmark for those mid size SUVs. I really like this car of its comfort and and very quick to kick in at low RPM and fast. Fuel efficient is very good as well.
I love this video. It reminds me of the nimbleness and size of my 1995 4Runner 3L Petrol. I like the compactness yet versatility and spaciousness of it. And off-road capabilities!
@DeeFromSA I am not paid and have never been paid for my journalistic reportage by any motor manufacturer. If you look deeper into my vehicles reviews, this will become obvious. This vehicle is really impressive, and just because I said so, doesn't automatically mean someone paid me to say it. A
I have a 2006 fortuner made in Argentina. Here we call it Sw4. I comes only with a 3.0 lits diesell engine, all with clima control. I use it in Patagonia in extreme conditions of snow and gravel, and is a realy great vehicle,, very good off road capabilities. Interior could have a better finish and better materials buy i would buy it again!
Hi Andrew, would like you to do a review on the Fortuner 2.4 and 2.8 (4x4). Recently bought a 2.4 gd6 auto 4x4. Reason for going with the 2.4 is that I do not like the additional electronic gadgets in the 2.8, and is not worth R140 000-00. The 2.8 and the Prado can not drive me away. As n matter fact, I wave the Prado goodbye on hills. But guess there is a reason for keeping the D4D in the Prado. I am very impressed by the 2.4gd6 in terms of its low revs, performance, towing capabilities, snazzy responsiveness, beautiful 6 gear auto gearbox. Still to test it off-road myself soon in Namibia. Sure it will not disappoint. Kind regards. Willie (like your overlanding experience) ( previously owned a 1999 hilux double cab 3L , non-turbo - unbreakable vehicle)
In Thailand, the first model of Fortuner were plagued from too small brake disc, back seat air-con. sucking air from behind and not long you will see black dirt in your cabin (including my sister's). To credit to Toyota, these happen only some first batches which they had quickly corrected them. The minor changed Fortuner therefore comes with 17 inch and larger brake disc to get better stability and braking, new designed rear air-con, VSC, etc. This Fortuner are then better than before.
@bonaji2010 The Fortuner is a locally made vehicle here in South Africa, and as far as I know, no issues with the air-con. Yours will be a Japanese or Asian built vehicle, so could be different.
well there's reason why there's countries that governments use Fortuners as their 'official' vehicles. not Prado. not Pajeros. not even Hiluxes with canopies. its 2TR-FE engine proved so reliable it is used again on 2016 all new Fortuner. im getting one today, 2.7 VVTi.
I have driven them all off-road. Disco 1... maybe. DIsco-2... never! (Disco-2 is rubbish.. just my view) Rangie 010 probably. DIsco 3&4 and Defender... definitely.
speaking about fortuner.. I am neutral on this, if you always go offroading, fortuner won't let you down... but if you are using this car mostly on paved road, I don't think this car is a good choice.. the ride is so stiff.. I think that's the only problem although some says that forts' engine has some choking problems. well, each car is not perfect though.. I do appreciate your preview on fortuner..thanks..
@HotHeadCJ V8 is strong, but sensitive to poor quality diesel fuels, unlike the 6's. The Amarok is becoming a problem vehicle with recalls already - diffs, air-cons and several other problems in manufacture. I think they released it prematurely. I like the look of the vehicle.. I find it difficult to get test vehicles cause the manufacturers don't really like me much cause I tell it as I see it. I worry that it has a pretty small engine... endurance wise could be a problem. But a nice package!
NO. I do my very best not to be biased... but If i like a product or more than one from the same manufacturer, people automatically make that assumption. I think the Fortuner is a fantastic mix of on and off roader - not as good off road as some, not as good on road as others, but a great combination of both.
we have this car in indonesia.well actually this type is the facelift.the old one doesn have the 17''inch wheel.the old one use 16.the is also the gas type that use 2,7 liters inline 4 engine.
It seems that the Fortuner is made on a refreshed version of the old Hilux (as the Hilux itself). While the new 4Runner, Land Cruiser Prado and FJ Cruiser rests on a new more refined and bigger frame. That means sturdiness, lower price, reliability and not the softest rides. That's is why is destined to developing countries markets.
I owned a 2011 tunner d4d 3.0 and loved it. i didn't do much off roading with it but i did discover that it has little break in the suspension, the 4speed auto (which i had) was sort of good, but it was missing one more gear, he talks about stability and on road is great off road i had more problems with clearance than stability, its a proper suv so dont drive it like a q5 but with 4wd always active is good, in clearence i also damaged the foot thing on the sides, the party peace is indeed the engine, its fantastic, a little less efficient than most modern competitior but it has a lot to do with having at least one less gear, i only runed it for 60k km but we have a hilux with the same engine that already passed the 140k mark and aside from normal wear its doing great, and that one is for work so the toll is higher the thing i hated the most was the dials, plainfully ugly for my taste and if you want back space you have to remove the side mounted extra seats this will also improve visibility, which i didnt know i wanted until i drop em haha, he talks about how different it behaves from a hilux, this is due to the fact that they removed the leafsprings from the back, closing the back also adds weight to the rear wheels and improves rigidity of the chassis and the 4 wheel drive is always active, in high it works more like an awd system than a 4wd but low range is avaliable to make it a proper 4wd
I own one and is satisfied. I would say it's a medium size special suv.. with balanced compromises between comfort , style and looks, luxury, and ofcourse the price. So don't compare it with other expensive trucks not in its category... Toyota still have the high end suv Prado and the larger luxury suv Land Cruiser. If you really want a real suv from Toyota, try Prado and Land Cruiser - these are larger, more powerful, luxurious, and more expensive than the Fort..
@ninodrifter2 I do not know about the 4x4 market in Japan. But here it is by far the top selling SUV. Maybe it is not available in Japan. I do not think they build them in Japan, only in Malaysia/Thialand and South Africa. They are part of Toyota's International Multipurpose Vehicle Project, which includes Hilux as the base for all the models. And Hilux is the highest-selling motor vehicle in South Africa.
I both love mitsubishi and toyota vehicles. but here in the philippines the fortuner being compared withe the new montero sport same CRDi engines, people here also prefer the toyota fortuner but what we discovered is that the new toyota D4D engine is not reliable when it comes to flood or river crossing because the water can easily get to the computer box unlike the mitsubishi DiD engine
What a GREAT review! I was thinking about getting one,now I'm sure I will. But where I am I can only get the 2.5 TRD Sportivo. I just sold my 2007 Hilux with 55KMs. it still run like new. I wonder if the Diesel engines are as reliable as the petrol engines.
I really enjoy your 4x4 tests, however I whish you would do a feature on the Jeep Wrangler. I guess it's not really the practical type 4x4 you usually test but it would be fun to se how it stacks up with the others in the terrain.
The high lander is more of a " honey , drop the kids to the school " kinda vehicle. The Fortuner is a balance between dropping kids to school and taming the outback.
@ebonydiospyrosferrea You do know that if you post the same massage more than once, as you did, CZcams considers it spam and removes it. I have put it back. Andrew
Hi Andrew, Wanted to check on two things which i find an issue with the fortuner. First is the limited visibility on the left side and especially when offroading .. how do you manage? second is the clutch burn when its challenged in deep sand like the beach.etc I found these two issues much better on the old pajero model and am curious as what you think.?
Would you say that the Fortuner is more capable off-road than the Hilux or are they the same? Putting comfort and cargo space aside, just taking into consideration how they perform.
I'm in the market to buy a 2007 model, the 3l D4D 4x4. Have you tested the pre 2009 models and is your experience and opinion on the these models the same? Thanks for the review and a great website Andrew, have learned a lot from just reading your website, I highly respect and TRUST you opinion.
@4xforum Same here about Amarok, small engine, but I guess you look a Toyota's 2.2 22r strong and lasts long if you asked and btw Jamaican roads not top spec and the is very hilly. I really like new ranger, I watched a video from their channel and said that It was being developed to run on any fuel. I worry about the quality of our diesel fuel(non low sulphur) , mainly becuase it causes hell with commanrail injectors. What do you think of commonrail diesels?
@4xforum becuz higlander is a true SUV,da headroom is tall,while fortuner has a hilux pickup headroom,it is not a real suv,its a modified hilux with taller ground cleaarance
depending on your need..if you're more than 8 in your family than go for the starex but if you also plan to go offroading then fortuner is a good choice just you'll suffer a bit with it's stiff ride.. why don't you consider pajero sport. ride is way better than fort and also better on offroad but it's only 7 seater same with fort.
i am wondering about the air condetioning in the fortuner and about the calatch i have heard that they have problems. i own a toyota hilux and fj 40 and i am planning to get a fortuner to be my daily ride but i am between 3 disions 1-fj crouser 2-toyota prado 3-fortuner. p.s. i live in saudi arabia its a little bet hot here.
You have the 3.0 litre D4D but in Australia its coming with a 2.8 litre diesel. Even the rear windows in the cargo area are not the same as the Australian 4tuner.
Brilliant video. Can anyone tell me how good the heater is I live in Ireland hear reports the map import jeeps have poor heaters. My kids will be in jeep . Looks perfect for me only for reports of heater
If it’s anything like the Hilux that it’s based on then heater is awesome also may have Hilux,s “power heat” which is an electric heater element in the heater box puts out heat until the coolant warms up, great for those frosty mornings. Don’t forget Japan is a very mountainous country that has incredible amounts of snow and I’m sure Toyota wouldn’t let there domestic market have an inferior vehicle.
Its not really close to the 4runner in terms of build quality. Its mean to serve the Asian markets without necessarily being as expensive as a 4runner. It is slightly underbuilt compared to a 4 runner. Not that its a bad vehicle its just that they don't give it as thick metal, tow rating, or even as big brakes compared to a 4 runner or prado or LC.
i have ford Everest and it is greater SUV in standard mode (no modification) than Fortuner, i think that's because i used it more in the field over a long trips than in the city roads on the short hop. Everest more practical for field usage, because higher ground clearance and more durable (torsion spring compare to coil in Fortuner) inside is more spacious than Fortuner, it is fun if you are the driver in Fortuner. but Everest has better lumbar support.
Andrew I bought a 2010 Fortuner yesterday with 79,000kms on the clock. Still has its 2010 tyres on(!), accident free with some cosmetic touch ups required. Your video convinced me it was a no brainer. Thank you for your content.

Crisp and clear review. I agree on the engine part this thing literally pulls from 1000 rpm and has alot of grunt. Just completed 1,00,000 kms on the truck with no issues what so ever. Only thing i miss is we in India dont get rear locker as standard.
The praise you have for this one has made me sit up & take note.
Eish Victor, is a good car for you. ..
I own 2006 Fortuner standard equipped with 16inch rims. Runs like a charm!
Thankfully here in South Africa we still get a Land Cruiser 70-series wagon and pickup... utilitarian workhorses and they are excellent and as tough as nails.
Very good review. I like it because you have done it in actual and drove the Fortuner. This is SUV is the benchmark for those mid size SUVs. I really like this car of its comfort and and very quick to kick in at low RPM and fast. Fuel efficient is very good as well.
nice review mate, pretty balanced. Not biased.
@2:23 The 80 just overshadowed the fortuner, what a legend the 80.
I love this video. It reminds me of the nimbleness and size of my 1995 4Runner 3L Petrol. I like the compactness yet versatility and spaciousness of it. And off-road capabilities!
The Japanese and North American markets have the 4 Runner. This vehicle is based on the same chasis as the 4 Runner and Hilux.
My dad has one ,the same colour , can just say ,it is simply a fantastic vehicle ❤️,with a great engine,my family and I are in love with it😄❤️❤️❤️❤️
@DeeFromSA I am not paid and have never been paid for my journalistic reportage by any motor manufacturer. If you look deeper into my vehicles reviews, this will become obvious. This vehicle is really impressive, and just because I said so, doesn't automatically mean someone paid me to say it. A
I have a 2006 fortuner made in Argentina. Here we call it Sw4.
I comes only with a 3.0 lits diesell engine, all with clima control.
I use it in Patagonia in extreme conditions of snow and gravel, and is a realy great vehicle,, very good off road capabilities.
Interior could have a better finish and better materials buy i would buy it again!
Me, watching this in 2023, and I also drive that Toyota here in Moldova in 2023.... love it I have 275/70/R16 4inch lift
This is correct, I own one! It's just brilliant! But you cant compare it with the Prado and Land Cruiser, its in a total different market and segment.
I finally got mine. Feels like I'm part of a legacy now.
Just picked up a used 2012 Fortuner for some offroad use in India and whatever little i have seen of it, is good. Nice review!

Andrew I am getting a 2019 Fortuner and happy to see the results
I have driven them all off-road. Disco 1... maybe. DIsco-2... never! (Disco-2 is rubbish.. just my view) Rangie 010 probably. DIsco 3&4 and Defender... definitely.
Don't mind the haters. I have always enjoyed your videos!
Bring on some new LandCruiser vids. Thanks!

The Amarok has no low transfer case, and the alternator seats at an awkward position, not very great for water crossings, and muddy terrain
@navistars Where can I find info on expeditions to Patagonia?
this guy is my hero
@wyunaboy I will be testing one this year... 2012.
NO. I do my very best not to be biased... but If i like a product or more than one from the same manufacturer, people automatically make that assumption.

Go search Fortuner on face book and see the large Fortuner clubs in places like North Africa.
Liked this video Andrew looking at getting my wife a fortuner 4x4
Hyndai Sante Fe...? you have got to be kidding! The Sante Fe doesn't even have low range! In my view, not even in the same category.
Not even close. Sante fe rubbish junk
Thanks mate. The best and useful review about this SUV. THANKS A LOT.
It seems that the Fortuner is made on a refreshed version of the old Hilux (as the Hilux itself). While the new 4Runner, Land Cruiser Prado and FJ Cruiser rests on a new more refined and bigger frame. That means sturdiness, lower price, reliability and not the softest rides. That's is why is destined to developing countries markets.
Toyota will not make FJ Cruiser any more. They realised it's not as really good as many people think!!
I owned a 2011 tunner d4d 3.0 and loved it. i didn't do much off roading with it but i did discover that it has little break in the suspension, the 4speed auto (which i had) was sort of good, but it was missing one more gear, he talks about stability and on road is great off road i had more problems with clearance than stability, its a proper suv so dont drive it like a q5 but with 4wd always active is good, in clearence i also damaged the foot thing on the sides, the party peace is indeed the engine, its fantastic, a little less efficient than most modern competitior but it has a lot to do with having at least one less gear, i only runed it for 60k km but we have a hilux with the same engine that already passed the 140k mark and aside from normal wear its doing great, and that one is for work so the toll is higher the thing i hated the most was the dials, plainfully ugly for my taste and if you want back space you have to remove the side mounted extra seats this will also improve visibility, which i didnt know i wanted until i drop em haha, he talks about how different it behaves from a hilux, this is due to the fact that they removed the leafsprings from the back, closing the back also adds weight to the rear wheels and improves rigidity of the chassis and the 4 wheel drive is always active, in high it works more like an awd system than a 4wd but low range is avaliable to make it a proper 4wd

We don't get the Highlander here in South Africa. Why is it better than Fortuner? Do you get Fortuner where you are..?

hi Andrew, what do you think about the new fortuner?
Great review.Thank you.
Very good review. Candid and well explain.
I wish they sold this car here in Australia !
Love all your vids!!! thanks!!
great review as always
What a GREAT review!
I was thinking about getting one,now I'm sure I will. But where I am I can only get the 2.5 TRD Sportivo.
I just sold my 2007 Hilux with 55KMs. it still run like new. I wonder if the Diesel engines are as reliable as the petrol engines.

here in ireland a 4x4 with a pertol engine is a rare site.
This is a nice vehicle in terms of looks but i am concerned about how cramped the inside seems having passed and looked into one the other day
The high lander is more of a " honey , drop the kids to the school " kinda vehicle.
The Fortuner is a balance between dropping kids to school and taming the outback.
@ebonydiospyrosferrea You do know that if you post the same massage more than once, as you did, CZcams considers it spam and removes it. I have put it back. Andrew
The gripes of the reviewer are amusing. The car smacked him on his head a few times. Lol.
Hi Andrew, Wanted to check on two things which i find an issue with the fortuner.
First is the limited visibility on the left side and especially when offroading .. how do you manage?
second is the clutch burn when its challenged in deep sand like the beach.etc
I found these two issues much better on the old pajero model and am curious as what you think.?
i so wish i could get one over here in canada.. but toyota won't offer it or even offer anything with a diesel..
i have one, and i love it.
Damn toyota is so damn good... Im almost 18 and im only gonna drive in Toyota's!!!!!
this has the same chassis as the toyota hilux. a nissan bumped into the back of me once. mine suffered a dent, and his car had its airbags out.
Would you say that the Fortuner is more capable off-road than the Hilux or are they the same? Putting comfort and cargo space aside, just taking into consideration how they perform.
I'm in the market to buy a 2007 model, the 3l D4D 4x4. Have you tested the pre 2009 models and is your experience and opinion on the these models the same?

I really like new ranger, I watched a video from their channel and said that It was being developed to run on any fuel.
I worry about the quality of our diesel fuel(non low sulphur) , mainly becuase it causes hell with commanrail injectors.
What do you think of commonrail diesels?
i think the second generation of the vehicle is coming on australia at mid of this year i think or next year
100% agree on a tailgate!
Very good review, looking at picking one up for myself in TH, again good work much appreciated.
Great video! Can we get it in better quality anywhere?
Is this car better than a Mitsubishi Pajero in off road? (Not the Pajero sport, but the 5 door Pajero "full")
@4xforum becuz higlander is a true SUV,da headroom is tall,while fortuner has a hilux pickup headroom,it is not a real suv,its a modified hilux with taller ground cleaarance
hello sir ahm just wanna know what is much better manual or automatic coz my dad owns the manual
@wyunaboy I don't know why Ford Names its car After Nepal's places.. Everest, Mustang..
depending on your need..if you're more than 8 in your family than go for the starex but if you also plan to go offroading then fortuner is a good choice just you'll suffer a bit with it's stiff ride.. why don't you consider pajero sport. ride is way better than fort and also better on offroad but it's only 7 seater same with fort.
Dear Sir...please asking my questions...
VNT or non VNT...
Thanks for your respond
I was wondering to buy fortuner,just want to know which i better option Automatic or Manual> pls help me out....
i think sir they built fortuner for low budget thats why they sell this car in philippines malaysia thailand
i am wondering about the air condetioning in the fortuner and about the calatch i have heard that they have problems. i own a toyota hilux and fj 40 and i am planning to get a fortuner to be my daily ride but i am between 3 disions 1-fj crouser 2-toyota prado 3-fortuner.
p.s. i live in saudi arabia its a little bet hot here.
Hi Sir..
Any latest video for Toyota Fortuner for model 2019/2020?
Can you review them?.. Especially for overland..
many thanks.
what is a highlander? Who makes it?
4xoverland Toyota. It’s a unibody light SUV for road driving. Sold in the US (at least). Comes as hybrid, as well
Please Review new Fortuner 2023 2.8 1GD motor
great and honest review thank you for that. can you do another review for the new Fortuner with overland modification, please?
Is a little hidden warrior tank….
what do u think about the 4-gear automatic transmission in the fortuner???
"The World Is Mine"
Any Feedback @ Toyota fortuner from UAE /Middle east users ? I saw a car they said it is made in Indonasia -Does that make "Difference"?
You have the 3.0 litre D4D but in Australia its coming with a 2.8 litre diesel. Even the rear windows in the cargo area are not the same as the Australian 4tuner.
Steinwaygrande i think you're looking at a 2016 fortuner and not an 2009 fortuner
hello what is better toyota fortuner or the 2006 hyundai starex?????
Why fortuner is better land cruiser ?
Cos i got 3 land cruisers fully dressup.
I always do overland with my 2 brothers...
Brilliant video. Can anyone tell me how good the heater is I live in Ireland hear reports the map import jeeps have poor heaters. My kids will be in jeep . Looks perfect for me only for reports of heater
If it’s anything like the Hilux that it’s based on then heater is awesome also may have Hilux,s “power heat” which is an electric heater element in the heater box puts out heat until the coolant warms up, great for those frosty mornings. Don’t forget Japan is a very mountainous country that has incredible amounts of snow and I’m sure Toyota wouldn’t let there domestic market have an inferior vehicle.
@ninodrifter2 at twice the price?!
Why would you buy one over a Prado?
@4xforum fortuner sux,its just a pickup hilux with suv styling,Highlander is a true SUv with tall roof n more durable structure
Good video.Can you do a test on the ford evarest.
I didn't say prado. I said Jeep Sport and Terracan.
Never heard of a "fortuner" until your review. It looks like a less impressive Toyota 4runner. Do you guys have 4runners out in the safari?
Its not really close to the 4runner in terms of build quality. Its mean to serve the Asian markets without necessarily being as expensive as a 4runner. It is slightly underbuilt compared to a 4 runner. Not that its a bad vehicle its just that they don't give it as thick metal, tow rating, or even as big brakes compared to a 4 runner or prado or LC.
Who is performing the music in the beginning in the video
i have ford Everest and it is greater SUV in standard mode (no modification) than Fortuner, i think that's because i used it more in the field over a long trips than in the city roads on the short hop. Everest more practical for field usage, because higher ground clearance and more durable (torsion spring compare to coil in Fortuner) inside is more spacious than Fortuner, it is fun if you are the driver in Fortuner. but Everest has better lumbar support.
why do your videos have such a bad quality? It is 240p instead of HD or even UHD.
This is a very old video. All my videos since 2015 are HD, some are even 4K
@KPKonliner
Umm... is that supposed to make it better?
what measurement is 2.3 and 2.4 at the back to psi
How much is the car
