Which Toyota SUV was produced from 2007 to 2022 and known as the FJ Cruiser?

The story behind the answer

The Toyota SUV produced from 2007 to 2022 and known as the FJ Cruiser was the Toyota FJ Cruiser.

The FJ Cruiser was a retro-styled, mid-size SUV inspired visually by the classic Toyota Land Cruiser FJ40. Toyota introduced a concept at the 2003 North American International Auto Show, and the production version appeared at the 2005 Chicago Auto Show before entering the market as a 2007 model in North America.

Unlike a conventional crossover, the FJ Cruiser used a body-on-frame construction related to the Land Cruiser Prado and 4Runner. It featured a short wheelbase, upright windshield, white roof, rear-hinged rear doors, and a 4.0-liter 1GR-FE V6. Depending on market and specification, it was sold with rear-wheel drive or four-wheel drive.

North American sales ended after the 2014 model year, but production continued for selected international markets. Hino Motors built the vehicle in Hamura, Japan, until 2022, when Toyota ended production after a final edition in the Middle East. The FJ Cruiser is therefore distinct from the larger Land Cruiser, the 4Runner, and the more road-focused Highlander.
