Toyota Fortuner 2.8 GD-6 4x4 - In-depth Review

Toyota's ever-popular Fortuner continues to dominate its segment despite valiant efforts from the likes of Ford, with the Everest, and Chevrolet, with the facelifted Trailblazer, to dislodge the Fortuner from its number one spot.

And, interestingly, this top-of-the-range 2.8L GD-6 4x4 Auto model is the top seller in the range. More buyers opt for this, the most expensive Fortuner, over any other model in the line-up.

While the Fortuner has been on the market for a year now, we wanted to get to know the vehicle better, and recently spent a month with the SUV. In this review we cover boot space, including that contentious third row of seats, we take a detailed look at the interior, discuss the new generation 2.8L GD-6 engine and what it's like to live with this bakkie-based SUV.
