| Toyota FJ Cruiser among best off-road vehicles of 2012 |
Every car wants to be the best on the road, but the Toyota
FJ Cruiser and Toyota Tacoma are proud to make the list of Edmunds.com Best
Off-Roaders of 2012.
The FJ Cruiser is a standout in the Toyota lineup, breaking
the mold of sensible and predictable with its unique style and character. This
mid-sized SUV combines a quirky appearance and off-road capabilities to make it
unlike any other vehicle in its class, while still offering the dependability
drivers expect in a Toyota.
The FJ Cruiser is as fun to drive as it is to look at, with
its powerful 4.0L V6 engine and easy handling. The strong chassis and available
locking rear differential take it off-road as smoothly as it drives the city
streets.
The Base FJ Cruiser is equipped with an automatic
transmission, four-wheel drive, stability control, and traction control to help
keep the handling in check even on rough terrain. Tech features like Bluetooth,
iPod integration, and satellite radio combine modern convenience with the
rugged utility.
The 2012 Toyota Tacoma takes versatility off-road with its
wide variety of body, cab, and powertrain configurations.
Available in various combinations, the Tacoma offers a five-
or six-foot bed, and three different cab styles. In addition to the Regular
Cab, the Access Cab features rear-hinged doors on an extended cab, and the
Double Crew Cab offers four front-hinged, full-sized doors on a crew cab.
Standard features of the Toyota Tacoma include a 2.7L
four-cylinder engine with an automatic transmission. Stability and traction
control help drivers navigate rough terrain, while side curtain airbags provide
extra safety assurance.
