Welcome to all owners of Toyota Fortuner [ARCHIVED]

Sabi sa akin ng isang SA ng Toyota sa SM North (may display kasing Innova), may bago na raw Fort this November. Sabay daw sila ng facelifted Altis. Ewan ko kung totoo talaga. Originally I asked kasi kung kailan next na Innova, wala pa raw. Then ayun sinabi niya sa akin.

EDIT: OT - Tapos may isa pa pala siyang nabanggit na papalit daw sa Previa. Starts with letter A eh. Di ko maintindihan sinabi niya.

I noticed maraming 2.5 na nagkalat sa daan. Mostly pala mga M/T units ito. And regarding the release of the new gen. IMV platform, I also think it'd be a good 2 or 3 years before we see this on the streets, Toyota still has the hot-selling Innova and Hilux, they only need the Fortuner to pick up the pace.

*eggman, how will the quality be like having units from Indonesia as compared to Thailand?

ang fort ko 3.0L facelifted 2009 model manufactured in indonesia walang problema D4D engine and mas comfort ang ride compared sa thailand fort (1st gen) mukhang thailand fort lang yata meron problema sa d4d...

2 to 3 yrs for a new model? nah I dont think so. The Fort has been out since May 2005 and even earlier in Thailand. That would make the IMV line around 5 to 6 years today. Even the Revo lasted close to 6 yrs here in the Philippines.

P.s. Any concrete evidence that it would 2 to 3 yrs for the new model to arrive?

Malamang final update lang yan ng current Fortuner with some cosmetic at interior updates bago palitan yan.

Alphard yang sinasabi ng salesman nayan at mayroon paring Previa.

My 3.0V is now 5 years old and still going strong. Besides a broken aircon pulley bearing, wala pa naman serious issues.

Toyota rebuts Fortuner transfer talk

Toyota Motor Corporation has denied claims that it will shift all local production of its Fortuner sports utility vehicles back to Indonesia.

A senior executive at the carmaker said the allegations were "completely untrue".

But production for Fortuner exports to the Middle East and the Philippines will now be carried out in Indonesia.

Toyota Motor Thailand remains the Fortuner's export base for the rest of the world, he said.

The Fortuner is currently manufactured for domestic sales and exports in both Thailand and Indonesia.

The SUV was first produced locally in 2004 under Toyota's Innovative International Multi-Purpose Vehicle programme. The scheme, under which the automaker's products were manufactured entirely outside of Japan, aimed to use parts from across its global network of factories to make vehicles at the lowest cost and fastest speed.

Indonesia started producing the Fortuner for export to the Middle East and the Philippines in August, 2008.

Later that year, the global financial crisis forced the Indonesian operations to reduce their output to bring it in line with declining overseas orders.

Indonesia's production for the Saudi Arabian market was later shifted to Thailand, followed by output for the Middle East and the Philippines last August.

But the recovering global economy and an upswing in export demand is strong enough for the firm to revive its Indonesian operations, hence the transfer of part of the Fortuner's export component back to the country, said the Toyota Motor Thailand executive.

"It is not a matter of the relocation of the production base from Thailand as claimed by a Toyota unit in Indonesia," he said.

About 1,000 Fortuners are exported in the Middle East each month with another 300 to 400 units shipped to the Philippines.
