The company has reduced the ex-showroom prices by up to Rs 3.49 lakh, making the premium SUV more attractive to buyers. This revision comes in line with the GST 2.0 reforms, which have lowered taxation on large vehicles, directly benefiting customers.
Price Reduction Details
The updated pricing makes the Fortuner more competitive in the premium SUV segment. Discounts vary depending on the variant, as listed below:

Impact of GST 2.0
The GST 2.0 reform has simplified taxation in the automobile sector. Previously, SUVs attracted 28% GST plus cess, which pushed up their prices. The new structure has introduced a flat rate, reducing the final cost for buyers.
Key GST 2.0 impacts:
- Simplified tax structure – One uniform rate for SUVs
- Lower overall cost – Customers save significantly on premium cars
- Boost in demand – More accessible pricing expected to increase sales
Features of the Fortuner
Despite the price cut, Toyota has not compromised on the Fortuner’s features. The SUV continues to offer a strong mix of performance, comfort, and safety.
- Engine Options: Petrol and diesel with manual and automatic choices
- Performance: Off-road ready with 4×2 and 4×4 drive modes
- Comfort: Leather upholstery, ventilated seats, premium infotainment
- Safety: Multiple airbags, ABS with EBD, stability control, hill assist
Competitor Analysis
The revised pricing improves Fortuner’s competitiveness in the premium SUV space:
- Against MG Gloster: Now closer in pricing while retaining Toyota’s strong reliability and brand trust
- Against Jeep Meridian: More value-driven positioning gives Fortuner an edge
- Against Skoda Kodiaq: Undercuts some trims while offering greater road presence
With prices slashed by up to Rs 3.49 lakh, the Toyota Fortuner becomes a stronger contender in India’s premium SUV market. Backed by Toyota’s proven reliability, powerful performance, and premium features, the SUV is likely to attract more buyers who had earlier been hesitant due to its higher pricing.
