At the 2015 Autocar Performance Show, one cannot help but notice that the biggest stall belongs to Toyota. Except for the Etios Cross, their entire line-up of cars which includes the Camry, Corolla Altis, the Trusty Innova, the Etios sedan and Liva hatchback and all-terrain conquering Fortuner can been seen here.

But it's not fun to see a vehicle as capable as the Fortuner just standing on display now. Therefore, at APS 2015, Toyota has arranged to put its mighty SUV through its paces. It has set up a unique 4x4 circuit, that lets visitors witness first-hand, the Fortuner’s off-road prowess. And mind you, the track is not for the faint-hearted. So much so that Toyota provides you with special drivers to negotiate you through the course of steep climbs, declines, sloshy pits and all the sand, gravel, rocks and boulders.

The open-to-all event takes in participants through a lucky draw conducted every fifteen minutes. If you already own a Fortuner, or plan to own one soon enough, you don’t need to wait for lady-luck.
