Where are Toyota FJ Cruisers made?

Do they make Toyota FJ Cruisers in the United States? I’ve thought about buying one before but I’m worried that they might be more expensive if they’re not made here.

The Toyota FJ Cruiser is made at the Hamura Plant in Hamura, Japan.
However, this vehicle was discontinued in the United States after the 2014 model year, so you won’t be able to purchase a new FJ Cruiser in the U.S. While the FJ Cruiser is still being produced, it is sold in places like Chile, the Middle East, the Philippines, and Southern African Customs Union countries, but this model isn’t sold in Japan anymore, either.
You are right that foreign vehicles are more expensive, though! When cars are manufactured overseas, you’ll pay a higher destination fee. This extra expense covers the cost of shipping your vehicle to the dealership where you’ll eventually purchase it. Destination fees typically range from $900 to $1,700 for more, so you’ll need to budget for that possibility if you decide to go for a foreign vehicle.
Regardless of what car you buy, though, you’ll need
car insurance
for your new vehicle, too. To find more information about
