Toyota Fortuner reaches one lakh sales landmark in India

The Toyota Fortuner has surpassed the one lakh units sales milestone in India. The SUV has been the best-seller in its segment ever since its launch in 2009.

Thanks to the Fortuner's muscular and rugged looks, it has always had a good fan following. For that matter, even the new-gen Fortuner has received an overwhelming response from the Indian market. The carmaker achieved 6,000 booking orders in the first few weeks of its launch. This year the demand for the SUV has grown as against its sale in 2015. The company is in the process of delivering 5,000 pending orders for this year.

N. Raja, Director and Senior Vice President, Marketing and Sales, Toyota Kirloskar Motor said, "Being able to serve more than one lakh happy customers in such a premium and competitive segment, is a huge achievement for us. This would not have been possible without the support of our customers who have appreciated the product so much."

The Toyota Fortuner has been the number one SUV in its class in India ever since its introduction. The latest iteration of the SUV looks promising and is able to garner such high bookings even after the festive period is over. Let's hope this new one is able to reiterate the popularity of the Fortuner brand even more in our country.
