If reports are to be believed, the 2016 Fortuner will be available with diesel and petrol engines right from the day of the launch that is scheduled to take place on November 7. The 2.4-litre diesel engine would not be making it to the 2016 Fortuner and hence, the upcoming Fortuner will be available only with a 2.8-litre diesel engine and a 2.7-litre petrol engine.
