Toyota Fortuner Legender GR-S – The Toyota Fortuner Legender GR-S is the top-ranked variant in the Fortuner series, characterized by its daring styling, luxurious interiors, and improved off-road performance. This SUV, launched in India in May 2022, is a performance-caruflie offering with GR-inspired features and a sporty look,thus a premium choice for consumers who want both high-end and robust capability.
Exterior Design
The Legender GR-S has a new and tougher appearance. The front grill has a new design, the bumpers have been altered to give a stronger presence, and the black alloy wheels have a rugged look. The GR logos are strategically positioned on the grille, the fenders, and the trunk to indicate the performance lineage.
Engine
A 2.8-litre, four-cylinder turbo-diesel engine animates the GR-S with a power output of 204 PS (201 bhp) and a torque of 500 Nm. The engine easily handles the baby-steps of acceleration, hasty highway driving, and tough-ground conditions with no worries. The power is smoothly transmitted through a 6-speed torque converter automatic transmission, which is coupled with a 4×4 driving system for the best possible grip.
Drive Modes
Different drive modes depending on the situation come with the Fortuner GR-S. Normal, Eco, and Sport are the standard modes, while the 4×4 system adds off-road-specific modes, which allows the drivers to easily cross sand, mud, or steep slopes. Paddle shifters and manual shift options give the drivers who crave a more interactive ride more control.
Suspension and Handling
The suspension system of the GR-S is explicitly tuned by the GR which is the main difference from the other variants. Such a setup can handle, and provide comfort to a ride, and be even stable especially during off-road trips, thus giving the SUV a sportier and responsive character.
Interior Features
The all-black theme with red contrast stitching is what the SUV inside shows off. The GR-specific elements are the logo on the steering wheel, the instrument cluster, the start-stop button, and the more athletic pedal. The comfort and support of the seats are such that they create the sporty and premium atmosphere in the cabin.
Pricing
The ex-showroom price of the Toyota Fortuner Legender GR-S at launch was approximately ₹48.43 lakh in India. It captures the high-end segment of the market with buyers wanting to have the blend of style, luxury, and off-road facilities.
