There are no changes to the mechanical setup on the Toyota Fortuner Diamond Edition. This means that the Argentina-spec model draws power from the same 2.8-litre four-cylinder diesel engine, which is same as the Indian model. The oil burner is tuned to produce 174 bhp at 3400 rpm and 420 Nm of peak torque between 1400-2600 rpm. The motor comes paired to a 6-speed manual transmission while there is also the option of a 6-speed automatic with torque uprated to 450 Nm.

It's not clear if Toyota India will offer the Fortuner Edition here. The SUV is one of the top-sellers in the full-size SUV segment and competes against the likes of the Ford Endeavour, Isuzu MU-X, Volkswagen Tiguan and more. The India-spec Fortuner is also offered with a 2.7-litre petrol engine, paired to a 5-speed manual and a 6-speed autobox.
