The 2021 Toyota Fortuner G is now the base model Fortuner in the Philippines, since we also have the new Toyota Fortuner Q variant. The base model Fortuner G is the same price as the top-spec Toyota Innova, so it begs the question, is the base model Fortuner even worth it?
In this Filipino car review, we take a tour of the base model 2021 Toyota Fortuner G and see if it makes any sense. Especially since the price of the base model Fortuner is already at the same level as mid-spec variants of the Mitsubishi Montero, the Nissan Terra, and the Ford Everest, even the Isuzu MUX. The crux here, is the Fortuner G removes a lot of creature comforts and features that can be found in its competitors.
It may seem like a hard sell, but the base model Fortuner G has a purpose in life. To know what this is, please watch the video.

I bought the 2021 innova E, it has 2.8 Diesel Turbo engine which produces 174 HP better features, has a cool box and much more spacious for only 1.3 M.

Fortuner G variant lost consumer preferences with the elimination or reduction of nice features that it used to have to its previous models.

Hey Reygan, I've grown to like your reviews. Keep it up. Little request though, not a big fan of CVTs hope you can make more reviews of base models with manuals since as you know that is the variant a lot of people will be able to afford and will often be most likely the highest selling variant of any model. And a manual is so much more fun to drive than a yucky CVT LOL. More power to your channel. PS. you shouldn't look down or promote the shaming of base models, they are still fine practical variants as they are : )

Stay safe po sir :)
Does this come with iMT?
If we are talking about1.6M budget, go for innova G instead. Or If you really want an SUV, there are other options for 1.6M out there. Check out the other brands or go for Repo 2020 Fortuner G. 2020 G >2021 G, 2020 G=2021 V. If you have money then go for higher variants.😆
