2025 Toyota Fortuner vs Rivals: Is This the Ultimate SUV?

2025 Toyota Fortuner vs Rivals: Is This the Ultimate SUV? About to undergo a significant transformation that might mark a turning point in its history is the Toyota Fortuner. The Fortuner Toyota South Africa unveiled this week has a 48-volt mild hybrid technology. This fresh variant runs a 2.8-liter turbodiesel engine alongside a 48-volt battery and electric motor generator. These elements taken together are supposed to increase fuel efficiency by up to 5%. For big vehicles, this is a significant advancement; but, there is a shift as this technology is being applied in South Africa. The arrival date for Australia is yet uncertain. Toyota's popular Hilux pickup and the forthcoming Land Cruiser 250 series Prado both include this hybrid technology; Toyota Australia has not specifically stated whether it will also bring this variant of the Fortuner to market. Thailand sends Australia its Fortuner and Hilux models; the production line has not yet included the mild hybrid system to the Fortuner. This is mostly responsible for the delay. Australian purchasers are anxious to find out whether and when this fuel-efficient innovation will be accessible. Since 2015, Automotive Australia has included the Fortuner within its lineup; in 2020 it had significant technological changes and a facelift. Especially in the front and back, the Australian and South African Fortuners have somewhat different appearances. The same turbo diesel engine producing 150 kW of power and 500 Newton M of torque powers the new 48v Fortuner in South Africa and the active Hilux in Australia. The biggest distinction is that although the new Land Cruiser Prto will feature an eight-speed automatic transmission, which should make it even more fuel-efficient, the Fortuner and the Hilux have a six-speed automatic gearbox. Including the mild hybrid technologies does increase the cost. The Fortuner 48v now costs roughly 11,000 Rand more in South Africa—about $900 more. In Australia, this is more than the Hilux Vactive price increase. Although the Fortuner is rather popular worldwide, in Australia it faces fierce competition from vehicles such as the Ford Everest and even Toyota's PR. Fortuner supporters are wondering whether they will ever see this greener and more fuel-efficient form on the roadways in Australia as the mild hybrid version's release date is unknown.
