Retro character with modern muscle

Drive a FJ Cruiser

The FJ Cruiser is a retro-styled SUV sold in the US for model years 2007–2014 and a standout Toyota rental on Turo. Two round headlights give it instant personality, and five seats keep it practical for friends or family.

With a Toyota FJ Cruiser car rental, you book directly from a local vehicle owner on Turo. The final US model year was 2014, so every FJ Cruiser listed on Turo is a 2014 or older. You get to drive a modern classic without buying one.

Unmistakable retro design

The FJ Cruiser wears its heritage up front — two round five-inch headlights and front styling that recall the classic FJ40. Around back, an exposed spare tire completes the vintage look. Several paint colors pair with a white roof, a two-tone touch that's easy to spot in any parking lot.

Confident V6 power for highway driving

The FJ Cruiser runs on a 4.0L DOHC V6 that makes 260 hp and 271 lb-ft of torque. That's real muscle for merging onto the interstate, passing on two-lane highways, and climbing long grades with a full cabin.

It runs on regular fuel, so you won't need to hunt for premium at the gas station. Listings come with one of two transmissions: a five-speed automatic for relaxed cruising or a six-speed manual for drivers who love to shift for themselves. Check the listing to confirm which one your FJ Cruiser has before you book — it shapes the whole feel of the drive.

Five seats and flexible cargo space

The FJ Cruiser seats five and gives you 27.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind the rear seats. Fold those seats down and the space grows to 66.8 cubic feet — plenty for suitcases, camera gear, or a weekend's worth of bags.

Rear passengers climb in through clamshell-style access doors that open 90°, which creates a wide opening for loading people and bags. It's a smart setup for road trips with friends, airport runs with big luggage, or a family visit where everyone packs a little extra.

Stand out with a FJ Cruiser

The FJ Cruiser is a head-turning retro SUV that makes any trip feel like an occasion. Take it on a road trip, a weekend getaway, or a photo shoot where the vehicle plays a starring role. To compare options, browse SUV rentals nationwide on Turo.

Top FJ Cruiser features

A collectible final model year

Three details set the FJ Cruiser apart: a collectible final model year, a three-wiper windshield, and your choice of drivetrain.

The FJ Cruiser's final US model year was 2014, so every one you book is a piece of Toyota SUV history. Toyota sold it in the US for model years 2007–2014 and marked the finale with the Trail Teams Ultimate Edition, a commemorative final special edition.

That defined production run gives the FJ Cruiser real collector appeal. If you love vehicles with a story, it sits comfortably alongside classic car rentals on Turo — retro styling and a commemorative send-off. Book one and you're driving a chapter of Toyota design that's no longer sold new in the US.

Three wipers for a wide windshield

The FJ Cruiser clears its wide, upright windshield with three wiper arms — a quirky detail you'll notice the first time you switch them on. It's a signature touch you'll spot from the driver's seat.

That upright windshield also shapes the driving experience. You sit behind a tall pane of glass with a broad view of the road ahead, which suits scenic drives and city cruising alike. When rain rolls in, three wipers working in sync are part of the FJ Cruiser's charm — and a fun detail to show passengers.

Your choice of drivetrain

FJ Cruiser listings come in a few configurations, so you can pick the driving feel you want. The five-speed automatic pairs with either two-wheel drive (2WD) or four-wheel drive (4WD), while the six-speed manual comes only with 4WD. The automatic earns an EPA-estimated 18 mpg combined in both setups, and the manual earns 16 mpg combined.

Love working a clutch? The manual makes every on-ramp and highway merge more engaging, while the automatic lets you relax and enjoy the view. Check each listing to see which setup the local vehicle owner offers.

Top tips and things to know before renting a FJ Cruiser

Get to know your FJ Cruiser

A little prep makes your FJ Cruiser trip smoother — here's what to know about the doors, fuel, driving, and price.

The FJ Cruiser's rear access doors are clamshell-style, so you'll open the front doors first before the rear doors swing out. It has a 19-gallon fuel tank and runs on regular fuel.

If you'd like more Toyota options, compare a Toyota 4Runner rental, Toyota Highlander rental, or Toyota Tacoma rental.

FJ Cruiser driving tips

Start with the listing, plan your fuel, and lean on your mirrors.

Check the listing photos and description, since every FJ Cruiser is a 2014 or older and details vary by vehicle.

Budget fuel around the EPA-estimated 18 mpg combined for automatic models.

Use your mirrors when changing lanes and parking, since the FJ Cruiser has wide rear pillars.

Off-roading is not permitted.

How much does it cost to rent a FJ Cruiser?

Each local vehicle owner sets their own FJ Cruiser price, so your rate depends on location and trip dates. Book at least four days in advance to get a 10% trip discount.

Listings may also offer length discounts on three-day, one- to three-week, and monthly trips. For trips of 30 days or more, explore long-term car rental on Turo.

  1. * Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.

  2. For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
