Toyota Fortuner TRD Price In Pakistan
What has been the most exciting discovery here is that Toyota has included the TRD in its pricing list since April 2020. According to the official notification, the automotive giant has set a price of PKR 9.39 million (ex-factory price) in Pakistan.
Although Toyota has launched the TRD, the company has not rolled out any details yet for its booking process at the moment. Moreover, ‘sources’ have shared that dealerships were also unaware that IMC had plans to launch the TRD variant in Pakistan, which usually doesn’t happen.
The introduction of the TRD can hint to the upcoming of a facelift variant down the line. Earlier, the company introduced the standard and Fortuner Legender variants in Thailand.
We have yet to see what Toyota has planned for the automotive market in Pakistan.
