What is the body length of the FJ Cruiser?
2 Answers
The body length of the FJ Cruiser is 4670mm, with a body width of 1905mm, height of 1830mm, wheelbase of 2690mm, minimum ground clearance of 245mm, body weight of 2015kg, and fuel tank capacity of 62.5 liters. The FJ Cruiser is equipped with a 4.0L six-cylinder naturally aspirated engine, delivering a maximum horsepower of 272PS, maximum power of 200kW at 5600rpm, maximum torque of 379Nm at 4400rpm, and is paired with a 5-speed automatic transmission.
I remember when I bought the FJ Cruiser, I paid special attention to its body length because it affects the daily driving experience. Its standard length is about 4.7 meters, which can be a bit challenging in the city—I often have to pick wider parking spots to avoid scratching neighboring cars. When I first started driving it, I nearly scraped a wall while turning in a mall parking garage, but fortunately, its moderate length saved the day. Off-road, this 4.7-meter length feels quite stable; it doesn’t bounce much on gravel roads, and the approach/departure angles are good, so the body rarely gets stuck in ditches or bumps. Compared to my friend’s Toyota RAV4, the RAV4 is shorter, but the FJ Cruiser has much more cargo space, easily fitting camping gear. My buying advice: if you mostly drive in the city, consider a shorter SUV; if you love off-road adventures, this length is just right—you won’t regret it.
