The current generation of Ford Fortuner, 0r ฟอร์ดเอเวอร์เรส in Thailand language has been on the Thailand market for some time now. According to the timeline of Ford's previous new product launches, the Ford Fortuner is indeed going to undergo a mid-life update or facelift. Based on previous experience, we might guess that the updated Ford Fortuner should be very similar to its predecessor, with no major changes. In an increasingly competitive car market, most of Ford's competitors have upgraded to more powerful engines and better looking product designs. But fortunately, Ford has made a statement on its website that it is working on an all-new Ford Fortuner, which is expected to be available in 2022.
Recently, the brand was spotted in Australia testing the new model. We guess this is the new Ford Fortuner, so the new Ford Fortuner has the first spy photos. In the blurry spy photos, we can still see that the new Ford Fortuner looks much bigger than the current model. All the body panels of the SUV are new and the design is straighter and more square. The air dam and front grille should also be much bigger than the current generation. According to an official statement, the design of 2022 model is apparently inspired by Ford's F-series pickups sold in the international market. The Ford F-150 is the best-selling pickup truck in the world. So the 2022 Ford Fortuner will come with c-shaped headlight clusters and revised wrap-around LED taillights. We can also expect a redesigned front bumper and rear bumper, as well as fog light housings. We can see there are side running boards for easy access to personnel. There are also new five-spoke alloy wheels that are less prone to wear and bias. Since the SUV is completely covered by thick camouflage, that's all the information we can come up with for now.
In addition, we received exclusive information from an in-house mechanic. He says Ford will no longer use the 3.2-liter 5-cylinder diesel engine, replacing it with a 2.0-liter twin-turbo diesel engine and a V6 turbo diesel engine. But the specific configuration depends on the different countries. This means that the choice of engines may vary in different markets. In Thailand, the current-gen Ford Fortuner uses a 2.0-liter diesel engine, but with only one turbocharger. As a result, it produces a maximum power of 170 PS and a maximum torque output of 420 Nm. However, with the new generation, Ford is expected to offer a twin-turbo version of the engine, as the current Ford Fortuner is lagging behind in terms of power and torque figures. The twin-turbo 2.0-liter diesel engine has a maximum power of 217 PS and a peak torque of 500 Nm. With this engine, the Ford Fortuner will be on par with those of its competitors in terms of power and torque figures.
Moreover, the V6 turbo diesel engine is not expected to enter the Thai market, where demand will be greater. the V6 has a maximum power of only 252 PS and a peak torque of 600 Nm. ford is also working on a hybrid gasoline engine with a capacity of 2.3 liters with turbocharging. This engine can provide 367 PS of maximum power and 680 Nm of peak torque. This engine is still under development and will be available at a later date. All engines are equipped with a 10-speed automatic transmission, just like the current Ford Fortuner. It is equipped with Select Shift technology, which allows the transmission to skip gears to improve stability and performance. This ensures that the engine remains within its power range at all times.
In the following weeks, it will be more spy pictures released on the Internet. Follow and subscribe me to know the latest info about 2022 Toyota Fortuner !
