0:00
in this occasion we're behind the wheel
0:02
of the Toyota Fortuner GXL 2024 a ragged
0:06
sevenseater built for adventure
0:17
The Fortuner has been a staple in Toyota
0:19
since 2004 designed as a tough body
0:23
onframe SUV based on the Hilux That
0:26
means it's got off-road credibility plus
0:30
the comfort of a family
0:32
SUV Under the hood we find a 2.8 L turbo
0:36
diesel engine pushing 150 kW and 500
0:41
newtons of torque This is paired with a
0:43
six-speed automatic transmission and a
0:46
fulltime four-wheel drive The diesel
0:48
makes it a great choice for towing up to
0:51
3,00 kg brake and off-road
0:55
driving Power delivery is solid
0:58
especially in power mode but there is a
1:00
noticeable turbo lag at lower RPMs
1:03
However once you're in the torque band
1:06
it cruises effortlessly
1:08
City dreams country soul Two worlds
1:12
flash when I'm feeling whole Got my
1:14
boots in the dirt head up in the clouds
1:16
Sitting inside you immediately feel the
1:18
Toyota quality The letter ascent seats
1:21
standard on GXL and above are
1:23
comfortable In terms of space the second
1:26
row seat are comfortable but the third
1:28
row is really just for kids or short
1:30
trips Boot space with the third row
1:33
folded is 716 L which is great for road
1:36
trips but with all seats up is a bit
1:39
tight just 200 L The 8 in screen has
1:43
Apple CarPlay and Android Auto but it's
1:46
weird not wireless which feels a bit
1:52
2024 Toyota claims a fuel consumption of
1:56
7.6 6 L But in real world conditions
2:00
combining city highway and some fun
2:04
accelerations I'm saying between 8.5 and
2:09
9 L Not bad for a big four-wheel drive
2:14
SUV This is where the Fortuner shines
2:17
It's got a proper low range four-wheel
2:19
drive a locking rear differential and
2:22
700 mm water wading depth Compared to
2:25
the Prao it's lighter and more agile but
2:28
has less ground clearance Still it can
2:31
handle most tracks you throw at it
2:39
So here is what I love and what could be
2:41
better about the Toyota 2024 Fortuner
2:44
GXL The pros strong 2.8 L diesel with
2:48
great torque uh proven Toyota
2:50
availability solid off-road capability
2:53
with real four-wheel drive good fuel e
2:56
efficiency for a large SUV and seven
2:59
seats with practical cargo options The
3:01
cons it's a turbo lag at low speeds
3:04
infotainment feels outdated and third
3:08
small And that's a wrap- up on our
3:11
Toyota Fortuner GXL 2024 If you enjoyed
