Toyota Legender | First Drive Review | Powerdrift
The top premium SUV in India, by many counts, is the Toyota Fortuner. And top Indian Fortuner is now so premium it gets a new name — Legender. And it’s got a new nose, some new skin, updated interiors and a ₹3 lakh higher price tag. And it’s clearly for the people who believe that their car marks their status — so it’s 2WD only. Confused? Don’t be! Raunak and Ayan are on the job. This video is, Legen-, wait for it, der!

3.28 -> i am a bit torn today
5.52 -> see powder is a celebration of the
6.96 -> vehicle that you and i love
9.04 -> and bless the lord i do love a good
10.8 -> party but the new fortunate legender
13.28 -> it just has me firmly on one side of the
15.759 -> fence
16.8 -> there are always two sides of the coin
18.16 -> though there's always people that will
20.16 -> wear their hearts
21.279 -> on their sleeves as always
28.8 -> toyota
34.719 -> in india when you buy a toyota fortuner
37.84 -> especially the legender you're buying
40.559 -> into an image
42.48 -> and what an image that would be
48.239 -> i really have to give it to him there
49.92 -> because if it were only about how
51.68 -> capable an suv it is the fortuner
53.52 -> wouldn't have been half as successful
54.96 -> today
55.52 -> and with the new legender which sits
57.28 -> above the regular fortuner
59.12 -> this new sleek nose these lovely shaped
61.84 -> headlamps
62.559 -> and that massive toyota logo they all
65.199 -> come together to make
66.159 -> one striking front end
69.84 -> second laptop
74 -> but in case of the legender with its
76.159 -> imposing front looks
78.4 -> it took me just a little over two
80.32 -> seconds to fall in love once over again
83.34 -> [Music]
85.36 -> and it's not just that you also get
87.36 -> 18-inch alloys that suit the legender
89.28 -> perfectly in my opinion
90.96 -> couple that to the striking new tail
92.72 -> lamps that slightly remind me of
95.28 -> a certain bmw and you have one
97.92 -> good-looking suv
100.15 -> [Music]
104.159 -> but the issues they're not on the
105.6 -> outside they're right here in the cabin
107.68 -> take these seats for example they are
109.439 -> extremely comfortable especially over
111.119 -> long distances and that's
112.399 -> great but these red highlights over here
115.28 -> they're
115.84 -> everywhere they're even on the door pads
118.079 -> and over here
120 -> why
121.41 -> [Music]
125.439 -> and then there's this touch screen it's
128.16 -> perfectly fine but
129.44 -> 8 inches don't some compact suvs get
132.64 -> bigger screen anyway what i really want
136.72 -> to know is how the legender drives
138.8 -> and the 2.8 liter diesel in this makes
141.28 -> 204 horsepower
142.879 -> that's all right and 500 nm
146.319 -> and it shows especially in sport mode it
149.12 -> pulls
149.92 -> really well and really hard
156.16 -> only downside is that it's really loud
159.84 -> there's a lot of noise that filters into
162.08 -> the cabin
163.04 -> aside from that the six speed auto over
164.879 -> here it works well enough i suppose
167.12 -> but these paddle shifters here they're
169.68 -> about as pointless as trying to pick a
171.599 -> fight with a bear
173.2 -> you're not going to win
177.44 -> also there is no 4x4 the legend will
180.879 -> only be sold to you in a 4x2 variant
183.36 -> and that's okay i think toyota's played
185.519 -> pretty smart over here because they
186.64 -> realized that
187.36 -> the potential customer base for the
188.959 -> legender will
190.64 -> not really go hardcore off-roading that
193.44 -> often
193.92 -> and to that effect i think it's a nicely
196.48 -> played card
198.239 -> also i'm gonna steal line over here only
200.48 -> legends go off-roading with 4x2
204.64 -> and if you're wondering about safety
205.92 -> well don't because the legender has
207.68 -> seven airbags vsc hill start assist a
210 -> reversing parking camera
211.68 -> well the works essentially and if that's
213.519 -> still inadequate well just get one of
215.44 -> the best insurance policies from
217.44 -> insurance deco you're sorted
221.76 -> you are everywhere today man
228.78 -> [Music]
235.04 -> a place where once again powerful
237.84 -> conversations
238.879 -> shall unfold and multi-crore rupee
241.36 -> agreements get signed
243.03 -> [Music]
244.239 -> not to mention the absence of tray
247.28 -> tables
248.239 -> or even sun blinds
254.319 -> and while it's nice that they've given
255.599 -> ventilated seats and a wireless phone
257.359 -> charger
258 -> what's missing is a memory function for
259.919 -> the driver's seat a sunroof
261.759 -> lumbar adjust for the driver's seat and
263.919 -> button operated folding seats for the
265.6 -> third row
266.88 -> for the price and segment i'd figure
269.199 -> that should be a given
270.6 -> [Music]
270.99 -> [Applause]
272.01 -> [Music]
274 -> you see why i'm done right i want to
276 -> like the legender i
277.199 -> really really do but paying a premium of
279.919 -> roughly 3 lakh
280.96 -> over the regular fortune of that too
283.28 -> that's something my left brain just
284.88 -> can't comprehend
286.479 -> and speaking of which here's the right
288.4 -> brain
294.84 -> caller armani
297.52 -> plastic surgery so if the legender here
300.96 -> gives you an instant image boost then
303.6 -> three lakh rupees
304.72 -> suddenly doesn't seem like a big deal at
306.8 -> all
307.84 -> or huh
313.68 -> anyway thank you for watching and now my
316.4 -> left brain needs to have a very serious
317.84 -> chat with
318.479 -> his right brain are you seriously gonna
321.919 -> buy this chat
