The 2016 Toyota Fortuner was recently spotted in Malaysia by reader Dysaclicks. Released in Thailand in mid-2015, local 4WD enthusiasts have been waiting with bated breath for the Fortuner. Since one has already been spotted, perhaps it is due for release soon?
Australia has already received their version of the Fortuner, which comes with a 2.8 litre 1GD-FTV turbodiesel with 174 hp. The Fortuner is also due in the Indonesian market, where it is released in three variants.
In Thailand, the Fortuner comes with three engines, the 2.4 litre 2GD-FTV turbodiesel that pushes out 150 hp at 3,400 rpm and 400 Nm from 1,600-2,000 rpm and the 2.7 litre petrol four cylinder that puts out 166 hp at 5,200 rpm and 245 Nm at 4,000 rpm, with the third option being the 1GD-FTV turbodiesel.
Local rivals for the Fortuner in 2016 are the Ford Everest, Mitsubishi Pajero Sport and Isuzu MU-X. No word yet on pricing or specifications, but what do you think it is? Leave your thoughts and opinions in a comment.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Welcome to be refreshed pick up based SUV segment leader
Recycled junk. What will that be?
super hailat car….
Not another Fortuner la…
My brother 2014 Fortuner 2.7 V Sportivo only worth 135K, new car selling 180K :((
here comes the boar..
please come out fast…already waiting for so long
Cheaper if you buy a coffin and add wheels. Makes no difference. At least you get luxurious wood trimming
u sir are juz dumb below animal IQ….
My sources say it will be launched latest by July 2016. Expect 180k+ for the 2.4 one.
Is it price same with current model?
How bout new Hilux? I’ve been waiting for so long..
Lots of ppl waiting also
Waiting to laugh
Ford Ranger is ur choice, no need wait lousy Hilux
ooo, don’t buy this cheap brand.. better buy Mercedes, Audi or Bentley!
Mercedes is for uncle and stupid consumer who thinks merc is the best while there are other brands that as good as merc. Typical malaysian
In Malaysia, at the price below 400k, brandnew E-class is still the best choice if you can only have one luxurious vehicle. GLC – don’t know yet.
Mercedes-> Drop price king
Audi -> Glorified VW
Bentley-> Premium VW
TOYOTA – World number 1 car company, and sales figure don’t lies.
And apparently World number 1 in killing pipu too, and bodybags count don’t lies
Don’t talk without facts and figures….nincompoop.
You must really want a large MPV to spend 400k on a brandnew Alphard, which soundproof, comfort and drive are still marginally worse than C-class and Teana. The chassis is neither stiff enough.
Toyota? Have you owned a brandnew Alphard 3.5V6?
Good news that they improved some of the weakness when they produced the latest new generation.
Still waiting for the new Everest. Cepatlah Ford.
Still waiting for Nissan to bring in the Pathfinder to compete with all of the mid-sized SUV.
Launch hilux revo first lah…. Please umw
Those rotary aircond dials are so 90’s….anyway,its jus a ladder frame suv based on its pickup brother, dont ever ever expect it to drive any good.. Bt its a toyota n probably robust… I can see ISIS ordering many!
Just on time for 2016 New Year announcement.
Just on time for bookings and delivery before Chinese New Year, 2016.
it’s family time.
where the hell is my hilux??????????waited for a year
I give up and settle for a Triton, very comfort ride.
This is why Toyota focus on comfort ride.
Triton has got no ESC but having comfortable rear seats and people still get it without bashing “No VSC”.
Maybe first quarter
Yeaha expect from UMW to strip the spec with 2 airbag and no stability control,dated engine yet underpowered and old technology for the trio hilux,innova and fortuner..Good luck UMW to sell these car rakyat smart already..
Final version of the existing Fortuner, TRD facelift Boss Taikun Edition? Odd for them to release the new Fortuner ahead of the Hilux?
The hijackers are exercising their fingers to nab the first new fortuner they can pounch on.
This unit is for UMW product training. The new Fortuner is expected on the 2nd half of 2016. The Hilux will be launched first or together with the Fortuner.
My 11 year old Hilux still fetches RM28k.
12 month old Sonata will only get RM25k max.
You do the maths
