Very Good
2025 Toyota Fortuner GXL review
This rugged Toyota HiLux-based off-road SUV has seven seats and a strong diesel engine, but it’s really feeling its age in 2025.

Colours Available
The 2023 Hyundai Venue is available in the following exterior finishes:
- Atlas White
- Abyss Black
- Shimmering Silver
- Cosmic Grey
- Fiery Red
- Intense Blue
- The Denim
All bar Atlas White cost an extra $595.
All models have a black interior as standard, though the Elite can be specified with a Denim interior colourway. This is only available on vehicles finished in Shimmering Silver or The Denim.
The Elite can be had with a two-tone exterior treatment, with a contrast colour for the roof, mirror caps and side garnishes, however this deletes the sunroof.
