2026 Toyota Fortuner
What Is It?
The 2025 Toyota Fortuner 2.7L EXR is a seven-seat SUV positioned for buyers who need a roomy family vehicle with Toyota durability. Powered by a 2.7-litre diesel engine producing 164 hp and 245 Nm paired to an automatic transmission, this Fortuner balances utility and economy rather than outright performance, accelerating from 0–100 km/h in 12.3 seconds.
Design & Exterior
The Fortuner’s exterior follows Toyota’s rugged SUV language with raised ride height and a design aimed at visibility and road presence suited to both city streets and highway runs across the UAE. Its proportions and ground clearance make it practical for occasional off-road use or sandy conditions, while traditional SUV styling helps it blend in across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the Northern Emirates.
Interior & Comfort
Inside, the Fortuner accommodates seven passengers across three rows, offering the space and seating flexibility popular with UAE families and expatriate households. The cabin is focused on durability and practicality for daily commuting and longer Gulf trips; prospective buyers should confirm local trim levels and options to match desired comfort and connectivity features.
Performance & Engine
The diesel 2.7L delivers 164 hp and 245 Nm through an automatic gearbox to a rear-wheel-drive layout as specified, offering predictable handling and towing capability for trailers or weekend gear. With a combined fuel consumption figure of 12.7 L/100 km, the Fortuner aims to be economical for its class, though real-world consumption in the UAE can rise with heavy air conditioning use, urban traffic and off-road driving.
Safety & Tech Features
Safety and technology fitment can vary by market and dealer packages in the UAE, so buyers should check the exact local specification. The Fortuner’s platform and engineering are intended to meet family SUV expectations; for precise lists of airbags, driver assists, infotainment and parking aids, confirm the EXR trim equipment with an authorised Toyota dealer in the UAE.
Why Buy It in the UAE?
The Fortuner’s combination of seven-seat practicality, diesel efficiency, and proven Toyota reliability suits UAE lifestyles where long highway drives between emirates, school runs and beach or desert excursions are common. Its robust build and sensible fuel economy make it a practical choice in hot climates and for owners who value low-maintenance ownership and resale strength in the Emirates.
