Highlights

Toyota India has rolled out a new variant of its ever-popular Fortuner SUV, named the Fortuner Leader Edition. Bookings for the Leader Edition are now open at Toyota’s dealerships, but the company has not announced a price for the latest addition to the Fortuner lineup, as prices will vary as per the accessories chosen. The Leader Edition is available only in two-wheel drive form, and with the diesel engine, with the regular Fortuner in this configuration being priced from Rs. 35.93 lakh to Rs. 38.21 lakh (ex-showroom, Mumbai).

Not much changes on the outside with the Leader Edition, as the only differences this new variant brings to the table are dual-tone paint schemes (combining white or silver body paint with a black roof), new 18-inch alloys painted black, and front and rear bumper spoilers, which will be offered as dealer-level fitments for an additional cost. The only feature added to the Leader Edition over the regular Fortuner is a tyre pressure monitoring system.

 

The rest of the Fortuner package remains the same, with the 2.8-litre diesel engine churning out a peak 201 bhp. Depending on the transmission chosen (six-speed manual or automatic), torque output peaks at 420 Nm with the manual and at 500 Nm with the automatic. The Leader Edition will not be available in four-wheel drive form.
