Toyota Fortuner compared with other SUV

Toyota Fortuner has the following advantages over other SUVs in the market:

Fortuner looks better and more beautiful
Has a better overall design
Better and more comfortable seating
Overall structure is far superior thanks to its base in Toyota Hilux
Fortuner has more seatings, at least 2 more
A/C is cooler and available and adjustable at the seat level
Foldable leather seats for better advantages, suitable for all kind of travels with SUV comfort
You can choose from 2WD to 4WD. Since prices of fuel keep rising, 2WD is a more economical choice with its greater fuel efficiency. Fortuner also comes in both Petrol (Gasoline) and Diesel. With Petrol you can convert the engine to use natural gas and thus save money on fuel
Beauty & the Beast: It has stylish design and luxurious feel of Lexus and is not just a pickup with canopy but power of a Vigo and luxury of Lexus married stylishly. Wide seats, Good A/C, Foldable seats make for a comfortable ride no matter how long the travel while the Beast lurks within allowing one to navigate the worst of roads thanks to the offroad capability of the Vigo
It has better technology: Cruise Control, VSC, TRC, EBD, BA as well as Navigator
Braking has been an issue with 4x4 vehicles since they take longer to brake than a sedan and when users switch from sedans to 4x4 vehicles they have trouble braking. The high end Fortuner models now come with bigger brake plates so drivers weaned on sedan vehicle don’t need to change their braking behaviour when they switch between their sedan and Fortuner. They can drive confidently because of EBD BA system and VSC with TRC which give a great braking experience suitable for all conditions

Toyota revs up Fortuner sales with new models

SANTAN SANTIVIMOLNAT

Toyota hopes to achieve sales of 1,500 units per month for its Fortuner after giving the popular sport utility vehicle (SUV) model a new facelift yesterday. Of the total, about 400 units are expected to run on petrol and the remainder diesel-run units compatible with B5 biodiesel.

The Fortuner is part of Toyota's international innovative multi-purpose vehicle project that has brought it great success in the pickup-truck market since the project's launch in late 2004.

The model has had accumulated sales of 74,826 units in the local market as of July this year and another 62,091 units in the export markets as of June. Both sales figures exceeded the company's targets.

About 7,800 units of the Fortuner were sold in the first seven months this year.

''The changes we have made to this vehicle make it the ultimate luxury vehicle with features that go far beyond customer expectations and placing it well above our competitors' products in every respect including those in the car segment,'' said Mitsuhiro Sonoda, Toyota Motor Thailand's president.

The facelifted Fortuner comes with many advanced features such as navigator, cruise control, overhead rear-seat air-conditioning vents and Bluetooth connectivity. It also has better safety features with bigger disc brakes and tyres, vehicle stability control and traction control.

The starting price of the new Fortuner is 1.059 million baht for the standard model while the top-of-the-line gasoline model is 1.419 million.
