I am buying the new 2016 Toyota Fortuner soon.

I have a question on the Penang Bridge Toll limit.
The height of the SUV is 1.835 meter while the Smart TAG limit on Penang Bridge is 1.6 meter.
I have seen Alphard which is definitely more than 1.6 meter using the Smart Tag lane. It seems that 1.6 meter limit has a lot of tolerance.
Can't find the dimension of the Alphard (2013 version) I saw the other day so I don't know the height of the vehicle.

Would a new Fortuner pass through the Smart Tag lane without any scratch? Thanks

i dont think entire penang and malaysia only you have a fortuner. Majority of smart tag i know are about 2.0 or 2.3m

I think they already able to estimate for most suv , 4x4 and even small lorry to pass.

The limit in Penang bridge is lower than most Toll. Already confirm with PLUS Helpline. They are 1.6 meter and so far I haven't seen any Fortuner passing the Smart Tag since I'm rarely using Penang bridge.

I use Grand Livina. Confirm can use Touch n' Go lane on Penang Bridge.

I dunno about Fortuna. Is it taller than a Grand Livina?

I think so. From the specs, it says 1.835 meter (height). Taller than me.

My Livina when passing the toll, still have quite a bit of clearance. I think Fortuna should be no problem.

langga je

fortuner is alot taller


Livina only about Height 1,590 mm (62.6 in)

Woi dun langgar then cause jam to everyone.

I just confirm again with the PLUS, they said the height has a lot of tolerance but they not sure if it can goes up to 1.8 meter

cannot take lorry lane?

fortuner not that high la..

you'll be fine.

comparing livina and fortuner height is like comparing asian and nikka didi

upload gambar

from this photo it seems like written 1.6m

That hilux i have checked

Xtra and Double Cab 2WD: 1,695 mm (66.7 in)
Xtra and Double Cab 4WD: 1,810 mm (71.3 in)

not sure is which.

From the photo looks like 1.8m should be able to go through see how big gap that is

cannot pakai lorry lane ke? why so much hassle

Can. No problem. Just asking if I can use the Smart Tag lane since I have one with my new car.

Thanks bro. Judging the heights, my Fortuner should be fine.

Clearance of 1.6 meter is pretty low... I think the actual should be higher than that.

Imagine a normal average Malaysian is 1.68m already.

Drive masuk like a baus and if get stuck you will know that lane is not for you

You are right. The people in PLUS helpline ask me to try first, if my car can go in without scratch - i should file a complain so they will action on it.
If not, I should move to other lane. WTF??

use lorry lane easy
