Most Helpful Review

Toyota Fortuner Legender

A really good vehicle to drive and a proud owner. Smooth to drive and tough built up, has a good presence on the road, features are somewhat lesser as compared to other competitors. Still love it.

Before buying take a test drive

Facing rainwater leakage issue in the boot space. We visited in December 2022 now in that rainy season we found heavy leakage in the boot space corner area. Very bad experience. Everybody should check their car leakages because it is in our backside area hence cannot notice if you do not look carefully. Our Kolhapur dealer & JEEP company are aware of this issue but instead of taking back the vehicle to the company they sell it.
