TOKYO – Toyota Motor Corp. on Monday unveiled its new Land Cruiser FJ sports utility vehicle (SUV), which is planned to launch in Japan in 2026.
It will be the first new Land Cruiser model launch in two years.
The name “FJ” means “Freedom & Joy.” The model features a two-row, five-seat configuration and is powered by a 2.7-liter gasoline engine. Its front-view silhouette is characterized by a rectangular body with chamfered edges. The interior offers good forward visibility due to its horizontal dashboard and instrument panel.
