Toyota Fortuner Price Hiked Again in India, Now Starts at Rs 34.76 Lakh
The Toyota SUV India landscape is witnessing a significant shift as the legendary Toyota Fortuner price in India has been revised upward, making this dominant off-roader notably more expensive for enthusiasts.
Effective May 2026, Toyota Kirloskar Motor has implemented a fresh price hike, pushing costs up across its extensive lineup.
This adjustment is primarily attributed to rising input costs and persistent inflationary pressures affecting the global automotive sector, forcing the brand to pass a portion of these expenses onto the consumer.

Updated Pricing and Variant Breakdown of Toyota Fortuner
The Fortuner new price now starts at Rs 34.76 lakh for the entry-level petrol variant and stretches up to a premium Rs 50.46 lakh for the flagship GR-S trim.
The specialized Legender variants, known for their sharper styling and added features, have also seen substantial revisions, with prices now ranging between Rs 42.92 lakh and Rs 48.29 lakh (ex-showroom).
Despite the price increase, demand remains exceptionally high, with waiting periods extending for several months across major Indian cities.
