2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser Overview

Introduction

The Toyota FJ Cruiser is the rebirth of the Toyota FJ 40, better known in North America as the original Land Cruiser. A capable off-roader, it will go wherever you want to go no matter what the terrain.

The FJ Cruiser comes in one model with a choice of three drivetrains. A rear-wheel-drive version equipped with a five-speed automatic transmission, a part-time four-wheel-drive version with a five-speed automatic transmission, or a full-time four-wheel-drive version with a six-speed manual transmission. All versions are powered by a 239 hp 4.0-liter V-6 engine. The FJ Cruiser seats up to five passengers. Safety features include Toyota's STAR Safety System that includes anti-spin Vehicle Stability Control, traction control, and anti-lock brakes with electronic brake-force distribution and brake assist. Dual-stage front airbags, side-curtain and front-seat side airbags are standard.

The 2008 Toyota FJ Cruiser is a carryover from 2007 with now standard side-curtain and front-seat side airbags.
