Toyota FJ Cruiser 2024
|
Almost a year after Toyota published images of its small electric four-wheel-drive, sleuths have discovered it could end up being called the Yaris Cruiser. Show The 2024 Toyota Yaris Cruiser could be the name of the company’s small electric off-road vehicle. Toyota unveiled the Compact Cruiser EV concept during its electric vehicle showcase in December 2021, but recently-uncovered evidence suggests the four-wheel-drive could join the Yaris hatchback, GR Yaris hot hatch, and Yaris Cross SUV in the brand’s small-car line-up. Japanese publication Car Moby discovered the concept had ‘Yaris Cruiser’ printed on the tyres in a small handful of images published by Toyota – though the writing was removed in most of the images of the vehicle. Despite being revealed almost a year ago, it took until very recently for anyone to notice. The manufacturer may not have made its mind up on a production name for the Compact Cruiser EV, with LiteCruiser also spotted in graphics on the concept’s dashboard during a video presentation at the event. The small off-roader looks to be a direct response by Toyota to the wild popularity of the Suzuki Jimny, with wait times for the Jimny blowing out to more than 12 months at one point.
The Toyota concept marries retro looks of the FJ Cruiser with the ruggedness of a small off-roader, with the company hinting at electric propulsion for the vehicle when it eventually arrives. Whether it’s called the Toyota Yaris Cruiser or the Toyota LiteCruiser – or does not move beyond the concept car phase – is yet to be confirmed.

Updated on Aug 23, 2022 · 3 min read In 2024 Toyota plans to release their newest EV in their lineup, a compact version of their FJ
Cruiser. The FJ Cruiser hasn’t been seen, new anyway, stateside since 2014. The car, expected to be released in 2024, has already won awards for design and is set to join the new EV lineup Toyota has been teasing. Jerry will share everything currently known about the Baby FJ EV and Toyota’s other current EV offerings. 2024 is a long way off when it comes to information about cars. While we don’t have much concrete info yet, the design for the Baby FJ created by Toyota ED2 in Nice, France, won the 2022 Car Design Award by the Auto&Design magazine for concept vehicles in Milan. Based on Toyota’s other EV like the Bz4X , which ranges from 252 miles to 242 depending on trim, we can assume the FJ will be around something similar, if not better. The Bz4X also has a charge time of 80% in 30 minutes if you use a public
fast charging station. At 240 volt locations, charge time slows down to 23 miles per hour or a full charge in about nine and half hours. With 120 volts, this crawls to four miles per hour and takes 50 hours to get a full charge from a low battery. The 2023 Bz4X EVsare only available in front-wheel drive, while the Baby FJ EV is expected to be an off-roading SUV. The rest of Toyota’s current EVs are hybrids, plug-in hybrids, or fuel cell electric vehicles.
