Next-Gen Toyota Fortuner Rendered Based On Spy Shots, Launch Likely In Late 2026

GaadiWaadi -

Next-Gen Toyota Fortuner is expected to debut later this year with a thoroughly redesigned exterior and interior

The Toyota Fortuner has been a dominant force in the full-size SUV space for nearly two decades. First introduced globally in 2004 under Toyota’s IMV project and launched in India in 2009, the Fortuner quickly built a reputation for its toughness, reliability and commanding road presence. Over the years, it has evolved from a rugged utility vehicle into a feature-rich and premium 7-seater SUV that continues to lead its segment.

The first generation laid the foundation for its success – becoming synonymous with durability and exceptional resale value. When the second iteration arrived in 2016, it brought sharper styling, a more upmarket cabin and more powerful engine options. Amidst anticipation for a brand new model, the first-ever spy images were caught on camera recently abroad.

Based on them, here we have shown you renders of the next-gen Fortuner which hint at a dramatic design overhaul taking inspiration from the latest Hilux. The SUV appears more aggressive while the overall silhouette remains muscular. At the front, the upcoming Fortuner looks to have gained a new grille section with redesigned chrome slats.

Prominent “TOYOTA” lettering above the grille can be seen while a sleek pair of LED headlamps and intricate DRL signatures flank the grille. The bumper features larger air dams and a more pronounced skid plate with triangular housings for the circular LED fog lamps. Moving to the rear, a full-width LED light bar is accompanied by “FORTUNER” badging placed across the tailgate.

Other highlights are a sculpted bumper with dual exhaust tips, thick body cladding, a roof-mounted spoiler and larger alloy wheels. Underpinning the new model is expected to be Toyota’s TNGA-F platform, shared with the latest Hilux. The ladder frame architecture should promise improved rideability, better handling and off-road performance.
