A revival of the legendary FJ40? Not quite. Toyota’s newest concept is yet another compact crossover aimed at «outdoorsy millennials.»
They wanted a beefy, rugged SUV with lockable axles, crawling differentials, loads of articulation and plenty of torque for the off-roading hardcore. And then Toyota revealed the FT-4X to be yet another rugged compact crossover aimed at outdoorsy millennials.
I suppose we should have known better.
Inside, the concept has a multifunction theme and is loaded to the gills with interesting tidbits, such as an armrest that can be removed and unfolded into a North Face sleeping bag, or cabin lighting that can be used as a flashlight outside of the vehicle. Even the rear doors are multifunctional, able to be opened on either side hinges or lifted like a traditional hatchback.
