Reviewer's opinion
"As always, the Fortuner’s body-on-frame IMV platform (with double-wishbone suspension up front and a four-link setup at the rear, all coil-springs) gives it the uncanny ability to simply float over gravel and dirt roads while staying exceptionally stable and focused, as we experienced on our road trip via the back roads of Arniston and Cape Agulhas."
