Scant details were released regarding the Japanese marque's mid-size sports utility vehicle (SUV) electrified variant, but it is touted to bring an evolved design.
Power-wise, it will utilize a 48-volt mild-hybrid system based on the SUV's 2.8-liter turbodiesel mill. At the most, the Fortuner hybrid can produce up to 201 horsepower and 500 Newton-meters of torque.

The aforementioned power figures are the same as the regular internal combustion-only Fortuner, but Toyota promises it will provide better fuel efficiency.
Nissan
Nissan, under the distributorship of PT Nissan Motor Distributor Indonesia (NMDI), has previewed the all-new Serena e-Power via a live-streamed press conference held a day before the official kick-off of GIIAS 2024.

The Japanese minivan's internal combustion-only version is already sold in Indonesia, but the new version has the same propulsion system as the Nissan Kicks e-Power.
As such, the Indonesian market is getting the efficiency benefits of an integrated gasoline and electric motor, together with the space of a three-row, family-friendly model.
