This modified Toyota Fortuner SUV looks straight out of a MAD MAX movie
Monday, September 17, 2018 IST
The
Toyota Fortuner is among the most popular and best-selling SUVs of India. The ladder on frame chassis SUV’s excellent off-road capabilities coupled with sound dynamics and comfortable interiors have made it a hit with customers since its launch. However, not many use the Fortuner to its true potential. But there are some who take their beloved to the road less taken and indulge in mud bashing and mountain scaling. Today we bring you one such proud Fortuner owner, Vikram Dharam, who is making full use of his vehicle.
This
heavily modified version of the Fortuner is custom built by its owner. The main motive behind this transformation was that the owner wanted to have a capable vehicle which is as close to a proper off-road machine as possible.
Though it may look outlandish and quirky, it does the job without any hiccup. The owner has removed the front bumper to make it easier for the car to climb over steep slopes and obstacles. The front grille and headlamps too have been given extra protection and have been covered by a metallic mesh.
This has been done to make sure there is no damage to the lights as well as the radiator when doing severe off-roading. The mesh also allows the stock radiator to function without any issues. The side step has also been removed to help the off-roading capabilities and there is a snorkel on the vehicle as well to increase the water wading capacity.
