2025 Toyota Fortuner GXL review

This rugged Toyota HiLux-based off-road SUV has seven seats and a strong diesel engine, but it’s really feeling its age in 2025.

While the HiLux continues to light up the sales charts, the Fortuner has long been the unloved twin – does it deserve better?

A seven-seat SUV based on the Toyota HiLux should be a knockout success, but the Fortuner has struggled to cut through in Australia. Why?

Thought the HiLux was the only ladder-frame off-roader in the Toyota stable worth your time? Don't forget about the Fortuner.

The Toyota Fortuner is basically a HiLux SUV, though it gets smacked in the sales race by its Prado stablemate. Does the 2021 update make it a better bet than before?
