2026 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ

The 2026 Toyota Land Cruiser FJ (model code J240) marks the spiritual and nominal successor to the original FJ Cruiser lineage, re-imagined as a retro-styled, compact ladder-frame off-roader. Built on a shortened, highly rigid derivative of the IMV / Land Cruiser platform, the Land Cruiser FJ caters heavily to adventure enthusiasts and markets demanding rugged utility in a smaller footprint than the Land Cruiser Prado (J250). Visually defined by a boxy silhouette, flat upright glass, short overhangs, chunky protective body cladding, a signature square grille with retro "TOYOTA" lettering, round LED headlamps, and a tailgate-mounted spare tire, it is positioned as a nimble, purpose-built 4x4. Under the bonnet, this modern compact iteration is powered by Toyota's tried-and-tested 2.7-liter (2,693cc) 2TR-FE inline 4-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine, producing 163 PS (120 kW / 161 hp) at 5,200 RPM and 246 Nm (181 lb-ft) of torque at 4,000 RPM. Power is channeled through a 6-speed automatic transmission paired with a robust part-time 4WD system featuring a high/low-range transfer case, giving it exceptional mechanical simplicity and dependable bush-conquering capability.Inside, the cabin prioritizes functional durability with heavy-duty synthetic materials, water-resistant surfaces, large tactile buttons and knobs designed for easy operation while wearing gloves, a digital driver’s instrument cluster, a central touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, upright seating for up to five passengers, and utilitarian cargo zones equipped with modular utility anchor points.
