Without any further ado, here’s our add-on 6-pack that will make you feel special about your big, strong, user-friendly SUV
6 Fortuner accessories you didn’t know you needed
1. Roof rack
The Fortuner has plenty of space for luggage, but for items like bicycles or kayaks or other outdoor activity items, nothing beats stowing these on the roof. Toyota provides a stylish roof rack for the Fortuner that can enhance the looks of your car as well as add a serious fun quotient to your weekends.
2. Stainless steel side steps.
Many people like the idea of side steps or running boards on an SUV. They may sometimes snag obstacles when you are traversing rocks and narrow dongas, but they also provide good protection for the door sill areas of a car that does serious off-road work. Plus, for older people or young kids, they are really handy for getting in and out of the rather tall car.
3. Load area rubber mat.
We like the idea of protecting the carpeting of the load area, and Toyota offers a nice rugged rubber mat for this purpose. The chunky rubber surface also helps prevents loose objects from rattling around in the boot.
4. Cargo net.
For really safe stowage of smaller items, Toyota offers this handy cargo net, which is ideal for carrying items either with the third row of seats folded, or the third row of seats in place, which makes the smaller luggage area more difficult to utilise.
5. Tow bar with rear step
We like the design of this tow bar with an integrated rear step. This comes in handy when you are stowing items on the roof rack that we suggest you fit.
6. Nudge bar
SUV owners love the idea of a nudge bar. They offer protection for minor bumps and are particularly handy when doing off-road work, where small trees and bushes might need some gentle nudging to clear your path. Toyota offers a variety of styles, and we particularly like this stainless steel item with wrap-around extensions to protect the fog lights.
