Toyota Fortuner Legender 4x4 MT price and rivals
Legender the only one in the segment to get a 4x4 system and manual gearbox
The Legender’s 4x4 manual version, at Rs 46.36 lakh, costs Rs 1.73 lakh less than the automatic gearbox version. This price pits it against other large 7-seat diesel SUVs like the MG Gloster (Rs 39.57 lakh-44.03 lakh) and the Jeep Meridian (Rs 24.99 lakh-38.79 lakh), though neither gets a 4x4 system with a manual gearbox.

There are no other mechanical changes, and power is sent to all four wheels via the 4x4 system.
