Auto maker Toyota Kirloskar Motor today announced the launch of its sports utility vehicle Fortuner, priced at Rs 18.45 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).     

The new SUV comes with a 3.0 litre D-4D diesel engine with five speed manuel transmission.     

"Globally, Fortuner has already sold over 2.5 lakh units in more than 60 countries since its launch in 2005. The launch of Fortuner today is an expression of Toyota's commitment to provide best in class quality and technology to our customers in India," Toyota Motor Corporation Senior Managing Director Akira Okabe told reporters here.
