Inspired by Toyota's off-road heritage
The FJ Cruiser is a 21st Century rugged SUV, but its design draws upon Toyota's decades of building trucks that have been proven in some of the harshest environments around the globe. The styling cues are not only reminiscent of Toyota's famous FJ40 Land Cruiser model, but also contribute to the FJ Cruiser's outstanding capabilities. From upright windshield, white cap and round rear corner windows to a 245mm ground clearance, a 34-degree approach and 31-degree departure angle, and extra protective undercover plates to shield the engine, fuel tank and transfer case, the FJ Cruiser is built to survive in style when the end of the road is just the start of the adventure.
Safety and Peace of Mind
The 2008 FJ Cruiser is generously equipped with safety systems to protect driver and passengers. Standard systems include dual-stage driver and front passenger airbags, front seat mounted side airbags, and front and rear head/side curtain airbags, plus three-point lap and shoulder belts with pre-tensioners and force limiters in all five seating positions, plus adjustable front seat shoulder belt anchors on the B pillars. All the while, the FJ Cruiser keeps younger occupants safe with child restraint seat anchor points.
The 2008 FJ Cruiser is provided with Toyota's no deductible, no transfer fee, comprehensive warranty that covers the entire vehicle for three years/60,000 kilometres.
