[badkuk]

nakita ko while riding to work on the MRT, bandang SSH-EDSA. ang akala ko Q3 pa ang release dito?

[OTEP]

Hindi pa naman released. But test mules are running around already.

[nugundam93]

sana nga makakita din ako nyan. would it be bigger than the mazda tribute?

[carlocaraddict]

mods, pls merge this to the exsiting thread about the Fortuner. To answer your question, it is almost the same size as the Everest and montero.

[nugundam93]

Fortuner bridges the gap between Rav4 and Prado. Its like the Everest, it bridges the gap between the Escape and Explorer.


Fortuner is also based on the IMV platform which the Innova and Hilux uses.

Does it have a petrol variant?

The Fortuner in Bangkok is available with two engine options - a 2.7 liter gas engine and the much talked about 3.0 liter CRDI engine with 163 horses. Just don't know if TMP will offer both in the Philippines.

Yup this is it. Personally I like the way it looks. I've seen quite a number here in Bangkok. Machong macho ang dating.

Does the Toyota Fortuner shares platform with Lexus RX?

[carlocaraddict]

Does the Toyota Fortuner shares platform with Lexus RX?

no, the fortuner uses the IMV platform together with the Innova and Hilux

[mazdamazda]

no, it uses the IMV platform together with the Innova and Hilux

as it shares the same platform with the Camry, Lexus ES, and Highlander.

Baiskee,

I was the one who told Doy to wait for the Fortuner. I told him that its going to be worth the wait. I also recommended to get the one with a 3.0l CRDI engine.

I got the Isuzu Adventure Master (Elegance series) here as my company car. I would have preferred the Fortuner but the interior width space is a tad smaller than my requirement. Since I lug around 3 kids, a nanny, and the wife, I needed a rig with a real 7 seat capacity. The 3rd row of the Fortuner here in Bangkok have jump seats so it's a bit smaller than the "real" seats on the 3rd row of the Isuzu.

Here's a pic. Hope it works.


I can't post a larger pic. Anyway, just go to my gallery in the "members gallery" to check out the larger pic.

I heard about the new lady from Marketing. Kayo talaga di makatiis! Padala ka pic! Hehe.

I'll be in Manila first week April. Laro tayo.
