Fortuner 2012????

For those that can speak Portuguese.... http://www.leoandradedesign.blogspot.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Compliments of Google translate....
The average pickup truck and SUV favorites favored Brazilians are preparing for another redesign, this time more significant and noticeable. The changes will not happen only in the version made ​​in Argentina, but their counterparts around the world as the Indian Fortuner. Leaked Images Leonardo Andrade allowed the designer to project above the SW4.

More imposing grille, headlights and new thinner bumper are the main novelties of the front, while the side and rear will also be reviewed with the right new stirrups. Nevertheless, the interior will be limited to new graphics and new instruments in finishing materials - we hope to improve the very poor of the interior plastics.

In mechanics, still the various engine options. The SW4 should not suffer any mechanical changes, keeping the turbodiesel 3.0 blocks and 4.0 V6 petrol. Already the Hilux pickup, and 3.0 engine, it will continue counting on the strength of the 2.5 turbodiesel. But the highlight of the 2012 line is the 2.7 16v block, which will flex and can also drink ethanol, and this may increase their ayuais 158cv. Today Chevrolet S10 pickup is the only medium that can be fueled with biodiesel.

The initial forecast was for the line in 2012 and the Hilux SW4 arrived to the Brazilian market in October, however this is expected before March 11, when part of Japan was devastated by earthquakes. This week Toyota announced the stoppage of the plant responsible for the models, in the Argentine city of Zarate, two days in June. So do not be surprised if they only appear here in early 2012.

Looks a little too much of a hybrid with sharp lines for my liking ..... like they were just too lazy or out of ideas to design something new or improve on the old shape (which is still more pleasing to my eye). ;-)
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!
