4x4 enthusiasts who have been waiting to get their hands on Toyota's latest SUV need not wait anymore.

Toyota Motor Philippines (TMP) has officially started retail sales of the all-new Land Cruiser FJ, expanding one of the brand's most iconic nameplates with a more compact SUV. The all-new Land Cruiser FJ brings that same Land Cruiser DNA into a more accessible, maneuverable package that balances legendary capability with the practicality needed for daily driving.

It draws inspiration from classic Land Cruiser models and adopts a bold, upright silhouette with short overhangs, a wide stance, and generous ground clearance to support its off-road capabilities. At the same time, its compact dimensions make it practical for city driving, offering a balance between rugged functionality and daily usability.

Powering both the TX and VX variants of the Land Cruiser FJ is the proven 2.7L 2TR-FE four-cylinder gasoline engine with Dual VVT-i. It makes 166 PS with 245 Nm of torque and is coupled to a 6-speed automatic gearbox with a part-time 4WD system. In true Land Cruiser fashion, the all-new FJ sits on a ladder frame chassis and has double wishbones in the front and a multi-link rear suspension.

Size-wise, the Land Cruiser FJ measures 4610mm long, 1855mm wide, and 1950mm tall on a 2580mm wheelbase. Taking on the road less traveled can be done in confidence, thanks to the SUV's generous 245mm of ground clearance.

When it comes to amenities, customers are spoiled for choice depending on the variant. The TX is intended for customers seeking a straightforward and capable 4x4 that can readily be adapted to their needs. It comes equipped with 17-inch steel wheels, LED lighting, a 9-inch infotainment display, a 7-inch TFT instrument cluster, synthetic leather seats with manual adjustments, and physical controls for key vehicle functions, including a lever parking brake and rotary selector for four-wheel-drive modes.

Meanwhile, the VX builds on the TX's rugged foundation with premium enhancements. It upgrades to 18-inch alloy wheels, roof rails, side steps, a larger 12.3-inch infotainment display, an eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat, a leather shift knob, and a panoramic view monitor. The VX also comes equipped with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, which includes a pre-collision system, dynamic radar cruise control, lane departure alert, and automatic high beam.
