The seat material and door trim of Fortuner G is available in Premium Brown Fabric, whereas it comes in leather seating in the existing 2.7-liter variant of Fortuner. Similarly, it also has manual seat adjustment for the driver and passenger at the front. In 2.7 VVTi, the driver’s seat adjustment is powered. The headlamps and fog lamps of Fortuner G have halogen lamps, whereas the 2.7 VVTi has LED headlamps. Fortuner G has no auto-leveling feature in its headlamps, which was present in the existing one. Moreover, it also has 17-inch alloy rims instead of 18-inch, which are available in 2.7 VVTi. See the difference in features in the table below:
