2025 Toyota Fortuner Leader Edition Launches With Fresh Styling and Added Features
Toyota Kirloskar Motor has introduced the new 2025 Toyota Fortuner Leader Edition just in time for the festive season. Building on the popularity of last year’s version, this latest update brings refreshed styling, a few feature upgrades, and flexible finance plans aimed at enhancing the SUV’s strong market appeal in India.
A Sportier Exterior Design
The Toyota Fortuner has always been known for its rugged stance and powerful road presence, and the new Leader Edition only amplifies that image. The SUV now features a redesigned front grille and bumper spoilers that give it a sharper, more athletic look. Subtle chrome accents around the body add a premium touch, while a dual-tone black roof creates a striking contrast with the main body color.
Toyota has also added glossy black alloy wheels and a hood emblem to further elevate the sporty appeal. Buyers can choose from four exterior paint options—Attitude Black, Super White, Pearl White, and Silver. All colors are available across both manual and automatic 4×2 variants of the Toyota Fortuner.
Premium Cabin With Enhanced Comfort
Inside, the 2025 Toyota Fortuner Leader Edition sports a bold black-and-maroon dual-tone interior theme. The seats and door trims carry this color combination, giving the cabin a more dynamic yet premium look. Toyota has also introduced new convenience-oriented features like auto-folding mirrors and illuminated scuff plates, which add a touch of sophistication.
On the safety front, the SUV now includes a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) as standard—an important addition for better control and maintenance. With these upgrades, Toyota continues to focus on blending comfort, style, and safety in its flagship SUV.
Reliable Powertrain With Strong Performance
Under the hood, the Toyota Fortuner remains as capable as ever. The Leader Edition is powered by the proven 2.8-litre, four-cylinder turbocharged diesel engine (1GD-FTV) that produces 201 bhp and up to 500 Nm of peak torque. The engine is paired with either a six-speed manual or a six-speed automatic gearbox, both delivering smooth performance and excellent power delivery.
The SUV continues to use a rear-wheel-drive (4×2) layout, which ensures a balanced mix of stability and efficiency for everyday driving. Though there are no mechanical changes, the Toyota Fortuner still maintains its reputation for dependability and rugged capability—qualities that have made it a leader in the full-size SUV segment for over a decade.

Additionally, customers will receive five years of complimentary roadside assistance. The standard warranty covers three years or 100,000 km, which can be extended to five years or 220,000 km. There’s also a customizable service package for those who want predictable ownership costs. These benefits reinforce Toyota’s focus on delivering peace of mind and long-term value to its customers.
Strong Legacy and Market Success
Since its Indian debut 15 years ago, the Toyota Fortuner has become one of the most trusted and admired SUVs in the country. It has consistently dominated its segment with over 3 lakh units sold to date. Known for its reliability, strong build quality, and imposing design, the Toyota Fortuner has built an almost cult-like following among Indian SUV enthusiasts.
