The new-generation Ford Endeavour, based on a ligther platform, will be more agile than the current one. Though it will be too early to compare its performance with the Endeavour now, since the product is yet to come to India.

hello,
why is this model getting launched in 2017 and its mentioned 2016 edition?? Moreover, this model is already launched in UAE…Why there is a delay in having it launched in INDIA??
I am eagerly waiting for this model to be launched as i would be buying it november or december this year..
please advice
Editorial Team
June 2, 2016 at 8:10 PMJun
The reason Toyota is delaying its launch is probably due to NGT’s ban on diesel cars above 2000cc in the national capita, which is quite a crucial market for the company. Also, NGT has given hints at imposing this ban in other states as well which is creating a lot of confusion among carmarkers in India. And the reason it’s called 2016 model is because globally it’s called 2016 model.

Since this will be a similar spec to the Australian model. It would be good to know if the 4WD transfer case is still an old fashioned, Part Time, On Demand unit or hopefully a more modern Constant or Auto engaging unit as exists in the Prado, Endeavour, Pajero and many others.
Constant 4WD allows 4WD to be used on hard surfaces or on surfaces which frequently change from wet to dry to hard to loose etc.
Part Time, On Demand 4WD can only be used on loose surfaces as there is no allowance for slippage.
Constant 4WD is a definite safety and performance advantage which why I’m asking.

The Toyota Fortuner’s launch has been postponed due to the ban on diesel vehicles in Delhi-NCR. The company will probably launch it either by the end of this year or in the first half of 2017.
