Toyota officially launched the New Fortuner in Qatar

The 2016 Toyota Fortuner was yesterday unveiled for the first time in Qatar at the Toyota main showroom. The Fortuner is Toyota's most popular midsize SUV.

The new model comes with 2 facelifts and a minor engine upgrade but it remained to be one of Toyota's best-selling models. It rides on the same platform as the Hilux but with a bigger space enough to seat 7 people.

The model's front grille is designed by chrome outlines which are also present on huge fog lamps on the bumper. The headlamps and the taillights have both narrowed down.

The cargo capacity wins out on volume and versatility. There is 200 litres of cargo volume on offer (to the roof). The rear door is manually operated on GX and GXL variants, while the top-spec Crusade gets a motorized rear door.

The Fortuner is powered by a 2.7-litre four-cylinder engine, in-line 16-valve DOHC with Dual VVT-i, which produces 163hp of power.

The 2016 Toyota Fortuner is now available in all Toyota show across the country.

If it rides on the same platform as the Hi Lux then the chassis is from a truck and probably a rough ride
