First sketches of the new Toyota Fortuner reveal a significant evolution in design and technology.
Inspired by the Tacoma and Land Cruiser Prado, the upcoming 2026 Toyota Fortuner is expected to feature a sharper design language and share many similarities with the new Hilux.
The 2026 Fortuner is predicted to undergo a design transformation, boasting sleek LED headlights with distinctive C-shaped daytime running lights. This SUV will feature a blacked-out grille and alloy wheels, complemented by a sculpted hood and triangular-shaped front bumper, accentuating its muscular stance. There are also expectations for a high-performance GR variant with enhanced driving dynamics.
Inside, the new Toyota Fortuner may share design cues with the 2025 Hilux, echoing the styling of the latest Land Cruiser Prado. If this information is accurate, the SUV will likely feature a neatly layered dashboard, coupled with a digital instrument cluster behind the steering wheel and a 12.3-inch central touchscreen infotainment system.
The air-conditioning vents, gear shift lever, and storage compartments are also expected to be refined for enhanced ergonomics.
The 2026 Toyota Fortuner is likely to be based on the latest IMV platform, offering a choice of 2.4L or 2.8L diesel engines, paired with a 48V mild-hybrid system, similar to the versions introduced in select Asian markets.
While Toyota has not announced an official launch date, the 2026 Fortuner is expected to make its global debut later this year, following the introduction of the new Hilux.
