2.7 Petrol 4x2 AT Price and Specs, Toyota Fortuner

The 2.7 Petrol 4x2 AT is the entry Toyota Fortuner, and it is the only petrol in a range that is otherwise all diesel. It makes 163.6 bhp from the 2.7 litre engine, sends drive to the rear wheels through an automatic, and seats seven. This is the most affordable way into the Fortuner badge, which buyers prize for its toughness and strong resale.

Even as the base trim it comes well equipped, with seven airbags, a reverse camera, an 8 inch touchscreen, 17 inch alloys, cruise control and ventilated front seats. What you give up against the diesels is torque and economy: the petrol is smoother and quieter but thirstier, and it feels less muscular when loaded or climbing.

Choose the petrol 4x2 AT if you mostly drive in the city, prefer a refined engine and want the lowest Fortuner price. Buyers who tow, carry loads or cover long highway distances will be happier with the 2.8 diesel, which defines what the Fortuner is really about.
