0.729 -> [Lively music plays]
30.539 -> For some Filipinos, the ultimate sign of success,
or sign that you are at the pinnacle of your success
37.053 -> is when you have this midsize SUV that is
one of the most popular models in the Philippines.
41.61 -> This car needs no introduction.
44.807 -> [Mr. Director] Hey, get back there.
46.264 -> Sorry, I got carried away.
48 -> Ladies and gentlemen, the 2021 Toyota Fortuner
51.723 -> [Jacob] Fortuner.
52.767 -> - Fortuner.
- Fortuner.
56.294 -> - Really?
- Yes.
57.531 -> That’s what Toyota told me.
58.643 -> Okay.
59.194 -> The Toyota Fortuner.
61.383 -> Take note, we borrowed two because we’re
not easy-go-lucky vloggers.
65.848 -> What we borrowed are the G variant and the LTD.
70.877 -> This is who we are, a powerhouse.
73.913 -> I’m your host, Stanley Chi, and this is the full review
of the 2021 Toyota Fortuner.
80.131 -> I got my pronunciation correct, alright.
82.22 -> Not Fortuner.
83.22 -> Not Fortuner.
85.05 -> Fortuner.
86.858 -> Before we start spooling turbos, I mean the review,
89.21 -> click the bell icon and subscribe to our YouTube channel.
92.4 -> Wait, you haven’t subscribe yet?
94.79 -> What are you doing?
95.663 -> Click it now.
97.287 -> We aim to reach 300,000 subscribers before
the year ends so... what are you waiting for?
103.841 -> Click.
104.482 -> Subscribe.
106.469 -> - Stan.
107.56 -> Why are you stepping on the wheels?
109.117 -> - I lack height.
110.933 -> [laughs]
112.629 -> We’ll start with the G variant.
114.7 -> This is a facelifted model.
116.33 -> Its grille is reworked to look nicer, showcasing
teeth-like details
121.51 -> and what I like here is its front bumper was
reworked as well.
125.15 -> Our headlight is bi-beam LED headlights type.
128.933 -> But if you look at this LTD, it is very distinct.
132.395 -> The front grille looks beautiful.
134.494 -> The design is very sleek.
136.024 -> Fog lights are LEDs, as well as the DRLs.
139.65 -> In addition, it has a sequential function.
142.409 -> What is it?
143.372 -> This one.
147.2 -> For specifics, this LTD has blacked-out trims,
like this.
151.18 -> On the other hand, the G variant comes with
satin chrome.
155.495 -> Take a look.
157.079 -> This is not just ordinary gray, but satin chrome.
159.835 -> Under the hood, the Fortuner LTD and Q have
a different diesel engine than the Fortuner G and V.
168.323 -> But the whole lineup is powered by a diesel
powertrain, no gasoline alternatives.
173.239 -> The Fortuner G is powered by a smaller 2.4-liter
2GD-FTV diesel mill that makes 148 hp and 400 Nm of torque.
182.81 -> Meanwhile, the Fortuner LTD uses the 2.8-liter
1GD-FTV diesel that puts out 202 hp and 500 Nm of torque.
193.047 -> Both engines are paired to a 6-speed automatic transmission,
but the G variant has an option of a 6-speed manual.
197.829 -> So for those who want to shift gears,
the G is the one for you.
202.876 -> Fuel consumption, the G gets around 9-12 km/l
in the city, depending on the traffic.
208.389 -> And 21 km/l on the highway at an average speed of 90 km/h.
214.322 -> On the other hand, the LTD’s engine is larger
and a bit heavier because of the 4x4 drivetrain.
220.43 -> It consumes 8-10 km/l in the city, while 17
km/l is the rating on the highway at a driving speed of 90 km/h.
230.187 -> If you are confused with the numbers I just
mentioned, check out Philkotse’s Car Guide.
234.68 -> The link is in the description below.
237.639 -> Here.
238.639 -> Yeah.
241.075 -> Moving to the wheels, the G variant is equipped
with 17-inch alloy wheels that are better than its predecessors.
248.323 -> This one is better.
249.502 -> But when it comes to the LTD...
257.155 -> why do you keep on hitting me? Slow down.
261.81 -> There.
263.722 -> Of course, when it comes to the LTD, 18-inch
alloy wheels that have more character and look better.
269.679 -> You Philkotse viewers be the judge on the
wheel design of the Fortuner LTD.
276.362 -> Before we forget, all Fortuner variants come
with ventilated disc brakes at the front and rear.
283.371 -> Awesome, isn’t it?
284.993 -> At the side, the G variant has huge differences
with the LTD.
288.815 -> The G has a solid color but the B, C, and
D pillars are blacked-out for that floating roof effect.
296.143 -> As for the LTD, it is blacked-out as well
but includes the roof
299.785 -> because only the LTD variant offers two-tone paint option.
303.434 -> And as you can see, it is designed with chrome trimmings
on the door handles, and the chrome accent here.
312.193 -> The overall looks of the two are distinct from each other
even though the color is the only difference.
315.334 -> All the Fortuner variants come with the same dimensions...
318.558 -> 4,795 mm in length, 1,855 mm in width, and
1,835 mm in height.
330.382 -> Toyota hasn’t provided the exact ground
clearance number.
333.62 -> But if we have to make a guess, it should
be more or less 200 mm.
337.556 -> Take note, this Fortuner LTD, alongside other
variants except the G, has a roof rail.
344.068 -> So if you want built-in roof racks on the
G variant, it is not readily possible.
350.62 -> At the rear, there are not much differences
between the previous model and the G variant.
355.658 -> Both come with similar rear-end looks, but
what’s good about this one is it gets LED taillights.
360.287 -> Also, it has a rear camera.
363.464 -> The rear-end of the LTD variant, on the other
hand, has LED taillights with black outline
369.08 -> that look like an eyeliner.
370.304 -> In addition, it has lights that tell everyone
that you have the more expensive Fortuner.
377.428 -> Also, don’t forget the sequential lights over here.
381.158 -> It lights up.
383.061 -> And, almost all Fortuner variants, except
for the G, offer a 360-degree camera.
391.105 -> As such, you'll get your money's worth.
393.561 -> The LTD, Q, and V variants have the said feature.
399.067 -> But this G only comes with a rear camera.
402 -> At the rear, the trunk space of these two
models are the same.
405.602 -> No competition between the two.
407.689 -> The G variant gets a manual tailgate.
412.273 -> As for the LTD...
415.359 -> I didn’t see it, sorry.
417.6 -> Here on the LTD, power tailgate.
421.817 -> Why won't this...
425.629 -> Takes a while.
428.604 -> I’ll demo this.
429.611 -> Here at the rear, the adjustment of seats
are the same, you should move these to the side.
442.415 -> Of course, I lift now so the seats feel light.
444.433 -> But as for most people, it should feel heavy.
456.512 -> It hinges to the sides so its horizontal and
vertical spaces are a bit compromised due to the seats.
463.28 -> The loading height is high.
464.982 -> So if you will load groceries, you will need
help especially if you are now weak.
469.553 -> As such, go to the gym from time to time.
473.49 -> Inside the Fortuner G, if you happen to ride
inside the outgoing model,
477.453 -> the layout here is familiar because it is just the carryover
of the previous model.
480.991 -> Also, the digital clock on the middle of the
aircon vents is still here,
486.778 -> including these two panels on the center console.
490.873 -> For the G, the steering wheel is urethane
but has audio buttons now.
495.026 -> No cruise control.
496.356 -> It has a digital display in between the two
analog gauges that displays essential driving info.
501.968 -> The infotainment system of the G is seven inches.
506.893 -> I’m so proud, seven inches.
509.803 -> Of course, it has Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
512.657 -> We move to our favorite segment called, “NASAAN
ANG SMARTPHONE MO?” (Where is your phone?)
517.033 -> Don’t do that.
519.668 -> We’ll put it here.
523.268 -> If you press this, you can put your coffee.
526.239 -> The USB port is located here.
528.118 -> With this, the cable could cause cluttering.
530.739 -> But it should be fine.
531.896 -> As for the seats, fabric material is used.
533.352 -> It is soft, but the driver and passenger get
manual seat adjustments.
536.654 -> When it comes to the LTD, wow.
540 -> This one is on another level.
542.575 -> Leather seats and its center console looks wonderful.
546.388 -> The dashboard is leather as well. It has red accents.
549.902 -> The steering wheel is leather-wrapped with
a wood accent.
554.189 -> Cool.
555.916 -> Also, there are paddle shifters here so you
can control your gears.
560.398 -> You can use this on mountain drives or the highway.
563.129 -> But the best feature here is the 360-degree
camera that you will see in every corner of the vehicle.
569.375 -> It gets buggy or crazy at times.
570.891 -> But that’s okay as we are all crazy here.
573.418 -> The infotainment system of the LTD is also
different, larger at 8-inch and what’s more...
579.69 -> it comes with a wireless charger for those who own expensive
smartphones that don’t use a cable for charging.
584.348 -> This is the best place to put your phone as
it sits near the USB port.
589.909 -> But this really is the best feature of the LTD,
592.77 -> aside from power-adjustable seats,
these can cool your...
600 -> Yes, [bleep].
602.932 -> But kidding aside, it is called seat ventilation
and not [bleep] cooler.
607.282 -> This can be useful if you parked your car in broad daylight
612.952 -> so your legs and the legs of your passenger
won’t get hurt from the heat.
618.903 -> In the second row, the G and LTD don’t have
a lot of differences except for leather seats with red accents.
626.32 -> The headliner comes with a dark gray to black
finish, while the other is grayish.
632.943 -> Both have aircon adjusters.
634.59 -> However, the LTD gets digital.
636.809 -> The other is manual.
638.171 -> We have a center armrest that has a cup holder.
645.205 -> This large bottle can fit here.
649.023 -> Maybe the owner of this is really thirsty.
651.456 -> I just want to add.
652.685 -> Here on the LTD variant, the JBL speakers
perform well even for the second-row passengers.
659.079 -> We also have USB ports here.
660.831 -> Take a look, two to be exact.
665.715 -> Going to the third-row seats is a piece of cake.
672.841 -> Here at the third row, I can somehow fit.
675.075 -> The seat can be adjusted.
676.921 -> And for a 5’6 guy like me, the space is adequate.
679.39 -> If you are tall, you might have a difficult time.
682.195 -> Well, these seats can be adjusted so you simply
need to give and take with the second-row passengers.
686.969 -> In addition, you have your own aircon vents here so you don’t
need to share with the second-row passengers.
695.368 -> The Toyota Fortuner is packed with safety
features even for the base G variant.
700.719 -> It has Dual Airbags, Driver’s Knee Airbags, ABS with Brake
Assist and EBD, Traction Control, Hill Start Assist,
708.623 -> 3-point Seat Belt for all passengers, and
front and rear proximity sensors.
715.36 -> On the other hand, the Fortuner LTD is equipped
with extra safety features like
717.726 -> Side and Curtain Airbags, Hill Descent Control, its 360-degree
camera,
723.338 -> and for the first time ever, Toyota Safety
Sense which includes Adaptive Cruise Control,
728.944 -> Lane Departure Warning, and Pre-collision System.
733.994 -> Okay, so we’re now driving the LTD variant
of the Toyota Fortuner.
738.713 -> What I can say is it feels almost the same
as the G variant.
742.362 -> The difference is the LTD has a more powerful engine,
it has a 4x4 system, while the G comes with a 4x2 system.
749.82 -> However, the steering wheel, well, it has
been a long flaw of the Fortuner that the steering feel is heavy.
759.414 -> Not to the point where you will gain muscle
but it is a bit heavy.
763.616 -> The 4x4 drivetrain is good for off-roading
because it also has a rear differential lock.
770.26 -> Another good thing about driving this vehicle is the driving
visibility is satisfactory considering its high suspension.
776.338 -> You can easily see everything at the front.
778.469 -> Speaking of suspension, this comes with a
double wishbone at the front and multi-link at the rear.
784.384 -> The one thing I noticed while driving the
Fortuner in general is that the ride feels wobbly.
788.186 -> As such, be careful when driving on zigzag
roads so passengers won’t get dizzy.
792.781 -> The Fortuner is also prone to dips and dives
when braking and accelerating.
797.326 -> One think Toyota did that I liked is that the
noise insulation is improved.
802.706 -> The outside noise is not heard much.
805.875 -> Also, the grunt of the diesel engine is not
really heard in the cabin.
811.714 -> To sum it all up, the Toyota Fortuner already has a good
reputation when it comes to the midsize SUV category.
818.762 -> So as a passenger and driver, I’m sure that the Fortuner won’t
let you down when it comes to ride comfort and performance.
827.603 -> Now you see the difference between the two models.
829.896 -> You know what, honestly.
831.648 -> If you have the budget, get the LTD because
aside from its load of accessories, amenities, and features,
841.49 -> the vehicle is simply splendid overall.
843.867 -> The price of the G variant is Php 1,723,000.
849.747 -> Meanwhile, the LTD model is priced at Php 2,414,000.
855.845 -> [reverse record scratch sound]
866.762 -> So, you be the judge.
868.181 -> The decision is still all yours.
869.302 -> Ohh before I forget and say farewell to each
other, if you really are a fan of Philkotse,
874.913 -> you will watch all our videos.
877.365 -> I know you find me amusing because I’m handsome.
880.11 -> But my bros like Jacob and Martin are experts.
884.402 -> They are the ones who taught me well.
885.576 -> The Joseph guy is a dubious character
but watch his videos too.
890.225 -> As for the Cholo, he comes and goes
but support him as well.
895.48 -> So there you have it, I’m your host, Stanley Chi.
897.363 -> Your “Senpai ng turbuhan,” reminding you,
900.359 -> “Don’t flirt with me.
901.515 -> You might fall in love.”
903.036 -> So until we see each other in the next video,
bye-bye.
908.43 -> Thanks for watching.
