The Legender takes the legendary toughness of the Fortuner and wraps it in a noticeably sharper, more premium aesthetic. It fixes some of the visual complaints of the standard model with aggressive LED headlamps and dual-tone interiors, while retaining the bulletproof 2.8L diesel engine. If you want the reliability of a Fortuner but demand a more exclusive, head-turning look, this is the premium pick.
Toyota Fortuner Legender price starts at ₹ 42.92 Lakh and goes upto ₹ 48.29 Lakh (Avg. Ex-Showroom, Delhi). It is offered in 3 variants. The base model is Toyota Fortuner Legender 2.8l 4×2 At and the top model is Toyota Fortuner Legender Neo Drive 48v.
The variant choice here is incredibly simple as it only comes highly loaded. The 4x2 AT makes far more sense for 90% of buyers who stick to highways and city roads. Stretch to the 4x4 AT only if you actively take your luxury SUV off the tarmac into deep mud or sand.
