Toyota Fortuner EV: People have mixed opinions about Toyota Fortuner in the Indian market. Some people like it while many people do not like it at all.
Although the upcoming new generation Fortuner may attract new customers, but many people may also dislike it because this full-size SUV is being given an electric avatar.
Can Fortuner Electric come in the market? Some new details have emerged confirming its possibility in the future. So let’s know about Toyota Fortuner Electric.
Company started testing
Toyota has started testing the new battery-electric Hilux pickup in various conditions to assess its performance. Toyota plans to start manufacturing the Hilux Electric in Thailand by the end of 2025.
Toyota is working on the Hilux electric as it faces stiff competition from electric vehicles from Chinese EV makers in Thailand, one of the company’s most important markets. Information about its specification and price is not currently available.
This vehicle is being prepared mainly for the domestic market of Thailand, but the company is also considering exporting it from Thailand.

We are talking about the Hilux EV here, but we have discussed the Fortuner here because the Hilux is a kind of testing model for Toyota, and this entire setup will definitely be used by the company for the Fortuner as well, because Last year the company had introduced mild-. The hybrid setup was introduced in the Hilux and then in the Fortuner earlier this year. Furthermore, the Hilux and Fortuner are based on the same platform and most of their mechanical components are similar.
If we consider these things, if Hilux is getting an electric version then there is every possibility that Fortuner will also get this version in future.
