The FJ43 is part of the famous J40 series of 4×4 vehicles produced by the well-known Japanese company since 1960.
The J40 series was a tremendous sales success worldwide, helping to forge the reputation of the Japanese brand thanks to its robustness, economy and reliability.
It was used for decades for military and civilian tasks, and is still in service in many countries. It has become an icon due to its popularity in many conflicts, even coining the term “Toyota Wars”.
