2012 FJ Cruiser

Introduced as a concept at the January 2003 North American International Auto Show, the FJ Cruiser was approved for production after positive consumer response and debuted at the January 2005 North American International Auto Show in final production form.

The FJ Cruiser was built by Toyota subsidiary Hino Motors in Hamura, Japan beginning in 2006 and shares many structural underpinnings with the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado.

On November 5, 2013, Toyota USA announced the 2014 model year Trail Teams edition would be called the “Ultimate Edition” and that the 2014 model year would be the last for the FJ Cruiser in North America.

The “Final Edition” of the FJ Cruiser went on sale in Japan on September 12, 2017. Sales of the FJ Cruiser were discontinued there on January 31, 2018
