2012 Toyota FJ Cruiser 2WD

It was a three-peat for the Toyota FJ Cruiser, winning the Vincentric Best Value in America award for third time in a row in 2012. Although the Jeep Wrangler and the Nissan Xterra claimed lowest lifecycle costs for a few high-mileage, long term scenarios, it didn’t stop the Toyota FJ Cruiser, which rode its low fuel and maintenance costs to top honors in 15 of the 20 scenarios measured.  

 

Cost-of-Ownership compared to Segment Averages

The Vincentric Best Fleet Value in America award is based the vehicle's performance over multiple annual mileages (10k, 15k, 20k, 25k, and 30k)  and multiple lengths of ownership (24, 36, 48 and 60 months). The chart shown above reflects results from three years of ownership at 20,000 miles per year.
