Next-Generation Toyota Fortuner: Toyota, the largest car manufacturer in the world, recently launched the ninth-generation Toyota Hilux in the country. Now that the Toyota Hilux has been launched, it is time for one of the most awaited launches of 2026: the next-generation Toyota Fortuner. The new generation of the brand’s popular SUV will be based on the ninth-generation Hilux, and it is expected to be launched by the end of 2026 in the Indian market. Several prototypes of the Fortuner have been spied in the country. Let’s take a look at the expected design, features, and specs of the upcoming next-generation Toyota Fortuner.

The 2026 Toyota Fortuner was recently spied from the front end for the first time.

The 2026 Toyota Fortuner is also expected to feature a more upright stance at the front, a rear profile that is more squared-off, a revised tail lamp design, and more muscular proportions.
