I looked at prado but it's too much over my budget and the hilux is good enough for my 4wd ing and it fits the family and bikes etc.
so I'm looking at kluger
Then I read about fortuner
Thanks for info max
Hilux Max wrote:Kluger is larger/roomier than existing Fortuner and more suited to larger families over 2 kids.
Existing Fortuner also has 3rd row seats but looks more cramped in there.
Fortuner sits 1-1.5" lower than current hilux and wheelbase is shorter too.
But you get the diesel option and selective 4x4 which on the Kluger is either FWD or AWD and V6 only.
Fortuner would be harder to fit larger rubber than hilux as the rear wheel arch forms the rear lower curve of back doors (if that makes sense) where with the hilux you have room to trim right around. (side effect of shorter wheelbase). Due to this it "looks" much smaller than a hilux.
Prado......over-rated in my opinion when the Kluger has more interior room. Only thing going for prado is D4D drivetrain if thats important.
