2025 Toyota Fortuner Leader Edition exterior and interior changes

Four dual-tone colours, along with many front-end design updates.

The Fortuner Leader Edition is offered in four colour options – Attitude Black, Pearl White, Silver Metallic and Super White – with a black roof. Up front, it gets a new grille with latticed slats and ‘FORTUNER’ lettering above.

The thick chrome trim around the grille has also been blacked out, and the skid plate and bumper areas see a more layered redesign that’s slightly less aggressive than the 2024 Fortuner Leader Edition’s. On the side, the 2025 Fortuner Leader Edition sports black 18-inch alloy wheels. The rear bumper has been revised, too.

New interior colour scheme and some additional features.

Inside, the Fortuner Leader Edition sports a new black-and-maroon finish for the seats and door liners, with no changes to the interior layout. However, Toyota has added a handful of new features to the 2025 Fortuner Leader Edition, namely auto-folding outside rearview mirrors (ORVMs), illuminated scuff plates and a tyre-pressure monitoring system (TPMS).
