Actually, if the Fortuner is in it for fuel efficiency, yeah... start looking at cars like the Santa Fe 4x4 CRDi (available at 1.6m)... It's much more fuel efficient than the 4x4 Fortuner (which can get 5-7 km/l in traffic).

If the original choices are the Fort or the TB, I guess macho looks are important... the Santa Fe has sleek looks, and while it's no off-roader, neither is the Trailblazer.

If you don't mind frumpy looks, there's the Eve... but the rear seating is no comparison to any of the above, and it rolls too much for my taste... but off-road... mmmmmmhhhhmmmmmm.... it's probably as good as or better than the Fort... but that's a question for the off-road fanatics to answer.
