Gets 360-degree camera and terrain modes but misses out on ventilated seats
The mild-hybrid Fortuner variants cost Rs 2 lakh more than the diesel 4x4 AT variants they effectively replace. Along with the 48V tech that enables the fuel-saving engine start-stop function, these mild-hybrid variants are also equipped with a 360-degree camera, a wireless smartphone charger and terrain modes – Mud, Sand, Rock, Dirt and Snow. However, they lack ventilated front seats, which are available on the standard Fortuner.
