With the unveiling of the 2024 Hyundai Santa Fe and Kia Sorento, SUV enthusiasts are eagerly anticipating the debut of the new generation Toyota Fortuner. However, according to sources, the next generation Toyota Fortuner will not be released until early 2024.
While waiting, many designers have attempted to create unofficial renderings of the new Fortuner to help us visualize the design of this Japanese 7-seat SUV. Most recently, SRK Designs released an impressive rendering.

Based on this rendering, we can see that the upcoming model features a redesigned front fascia with a new grille, sharper headlights and new LED daytime running lights, revised fog lamp housing, a grille with multiple horizontal slats and a Toyota logo in the center, and a more muscular bonnet.
Other notable highlights include newly designed alloy wheels, larger air intakes, and a new front skid plate. According to sources, the 2024 Toyota Fortuner will be based on the TNGA-F platform, which is shared with the Tundra, Land Cruiser 300, and the upscale Lexus LX. As a result, the overall dimensions may increase and the interior may be more spacious.

Another significant upgrade for the 2024 Toyota Fortuner is the introduction of a mild-hybrid system that may be equipped with the current 2.8L GD diesel engine. This system may be exclusively paired with a 6-speed automatic transmission. Toyota estimates that the addition of mild-hybrid technology will result in a 10% improvement in fuel efficiency compared to non-hybrid variants.
In addition, off-road capability and related technologies will also be improved, while the cabin will be upgraded to a more premium level with enhanced materials and advanced technologies.
