You’ll get a lot of use out of the rearview camera, which Toyota added as standard equipment for 2014. Rearward visibility is also poor, as the FJ has small, boxy windows and thick rear pillars. It’s also tough climbing into the back seats due to the small, rear-hinged (or suicide) doors. Front-seat passengers have plenty of head- and legroom, while those in the back will find legroom somewhat cramped. The dash has lots of hard plastics and the floor mats are rubber, making for easy cleanup. The seats are made with waterproof fabric and are fairly comfortable. The Toyota FJ Cruiser seats five people in two rows. However, it’s comparable to competitors like the 2014 Jeep Wrangler and 2014 Toyota 4Runner.

It maneuvers well in tighter spaces, but its gas mileage of 16 mpg in the city and 20 mpg on the highway doesn’t stack up well against non-off-roading competitors. There’s plenty of torque to get the FJ Cruiser moving – 271 pound-feet – and its brakes are plenty strong.
