Toyota Fortuner G Vs Toyota Rocco

[l154563]

Hey everyone. I'm in the market to buy any one of these cars and I can't seem to decide which one to select.

Apart from my personal preference, which car would be having a better resale? I plan on selling it after a year or less. Also, for those of you who think Revo is a better choice; is going for Revo V better or Rocco(The newly launched). Would really appreciate the feedback.

P.S. I know some of you might say that fortuner is underpowered which is something I don't mind as I plan on driving it in the city.

If you plan on having rear seat passengers all the time go for Fortuner, else Rocco is a drivers car, lovely for the person driving but very bad for the people riding in the back.

i was in same situation sometime ago. Then i happened to sit at rear seat of revo for 30 mins. I immediately decided for Fortuner G. I had somewhat similar requirement like u i.e. 90 % city or highway drive and rare visit to northern areas but no serious off roading. So eyes closed go for G, though Rocco may have slight advantage in resale but not sure.

For family use and passengers sitting in the back seats, then go for fortuner though it's not the best in terms of comfort as well. If you plan to drive solo with just front passenger seat occupied and require loading, then Revo or Rocco. Revo or Rocco 2.8D will also provide better fuel average than Fortuner 2.7 Petrol. They are made for different purposes so choose what suits you best.

Fortuner G has a really slow resale .. keep that in mind

When people particularly your cheeky friends and family will say you have bought dala, trust me it will hurt somewhere in heart. In Pakistan it has more reputation as used for protocol or security guards. Though this impression is changing but it will take certainly long time to change. You can't remain aloof of this impression it will start itching you very soon. By best advise go for Fortuner G, as far as Rocco is concerned this is very good but not for back seat passengers. By the way Rocco and Vigo are completely same thing except some cosmetics up gradation that you can do easily from open market. Even before the launch of Rocco so so many people have already converted their Hiluxes in Rocco so there is a lot both Rocco and Hilux on roads so buying Rocco will not differentiate you as even 2 years old models have been changed into Rocco kit rest for your own mental satisfaction you are free soul.

Thank you so much everyone for the response. This is what I've come to that I'll be going for Revo. However, I can't make up my mind on whether I should be opting for Revo V or Rocco. The difference is only in terms of exterior which can easily upgraded at a much cheaper price. Which would be having a better resale? At this moment, my only consideration comes down to the resale and the demand of the car?

I would've thought to buy a used REVO as well, but there are so many accidental cars/meter tempering and I'm not a professional at identifying which is why I'm opting to buy a new one.

[l154563]

I'm already familiar with the rough ride. Since I'm going to be the only one using, I think fortuner G may not be a good choice for me

[l154563]

HAHA. I enjoyed your response. To be very honest, I don't really mind cause I'm buying it for my personal use within city. I'm kinda confused between selecting Revo V or ROCCO. Which would be a better choice in terms of resale and demand?

Honestly if I am at your place I have gone for Revo as difference between Rocco and Revo is only a few cosmetics change there is not a single difference between engine suspension or performance. They just added body kits....if you want you can add that latter on after market. As far as resale is concerned you would have same resale but in my opinion standard Revo would have more as in old models people not much fancy body kits they are more looking on budget after a few years totally new shape and model would be in market so Rocco kit will not as such fancy people. In my case I don't like Lagender shape it is too thin from front and if you see fortuner itself is narrow body so combination of thinner and narrow doesn't give good feeling to me so I went for Standard Sigma. In months of Nov to Jan world biggest issue for me was either buy lagender or Sigma, things move on interests gets lower and now same vehicle standing in dust and dirt, this is natural you loose interests in things and hobbies over the time. In end I will suggest again go for standard Revo drive a few months if you still desire put on after market Rocco kit as 100 of people already done. But bet with me not immediately but after a few months of buying you wouldn't do that....and would be settled on standard and would find better to buy additional 65 inch TV instead Rocco kit

Go for a rocco. All facelift revo have new leaf spring system at rear which is much more soft then pre facelift. Seats are also much comfortable with soft padding.

[ahmadjawed11]

Is this hearsay or do you know for a fact that the rear suspension has been modified in the FL revo? Thanks.

[haseeb.basharat]

All new FL variants got different chassis code as compared to pregFL. Facelift is way more soft as a rear seat passenger, prefacelift is just bam and there goes your back.

[ahmadjawed11]

Sorry to burst your bubble! There are absolutely NO changes to the suspension in the Pakistani variant. This is a Thai video you've posted. The international market gets a tonne of more upgrades compared to our silly facelifts! The legender/GR sport fortuner in Thailand also gets monotube shock absorbers which have completely transformed the ride quality of the vehicle. None of this for us

Sure it is just another pickup truck to carry the contractors building materials and their crew to the site and back.

[ahmadjawed11]

Well. That is subjective. I've used the hilux as my primary vehicle for many years now and it is the perfect vehicle for me and my requirements.

Go to the dealership and check leaf spring yourself in real. How can you say something like that if you haven't even seen it with your eyes or checked it?
I have done that already. You can even compare both pre fl and fl leaf springs by parking them together. Chassis code changes when there is a substantial change in chassis part not in cosmetic parts.

[ahmadjawed11]

I have a 2017 revo and a lot of my friends have bought the new one. I could not feel any difference in ride quality and from my layman observation I could not tell the difference physically. But if you say you have checked and technically compared both then it must be true.
In regards to your chassis code change. The FL fortuner is also a new chassis code but no difference to the suspension. Don't you think Toyota indus would boast/advertise such a feature to the awaam Jo Power windows pe bhi khush ho jaati hai when indus almighty decides to make it standard?

[UJ]

Sir not at all any change of suspension or engine in Rocco or Legender.....I think you are referring to foreign models....

[haseeb.basharat]

But if you say you have checked and technically compared both then it must be true.

You have an old one, right? Park it with a new one. Check both leaf springs of old and new. Both of them are different bro. I cannot comment on fotuner as it could be just different bushes or something like that. For revo i'm dead sure.
On potholes the rear seats are way comfier then prefl revo.
