IT’S BEEN a little more than a year since the retro-inspired Toyota FJ Cruiser stopped being imported to Australia and three years since the left-hand–drive models ceased production, which meant the end of US sales.
But the FJ has soldiered on in very limited number in its home market of Japan – and that, too, will soon come to an end.
Launched in Australia in 2011 the FJ Cruiser won our coveted 4×4 Of The Year award for that year and went on to sell many more than Toyota Australia originally anticipated. Buyers were attracted not only to its unique styling, but the solid value-for-money package it offered and its honest off-road ability.
The final FJ Cruisers go on sale in Japan in October while around the same time, Toyota is reintroducing the Hilux ute to Japan after a 13-year absence.
