The grille consists of four horizontal bars and five horizontal slots. Fenders are completely integrated into front clip. The front turn signals are integrated into the front fascia, immediately outboard of each headlight. Rear turn signals are rectangular and vertical, inset into the body’s sheet metal just above the rear bumper. The rear door can be a single lift gate, a single swing-out or a pair of swing-outs. Interior is now styled, with an automotive-type dash.  1980 -1989

The grille can be mesh or can consist of three horizontal bars. Both have three additional horizontal slots in a single line under the grille. Front turn signals are square with triangular white lens elements underneath, and are affixed to the vertical edge of the front clip above the fenders and just outboard of each headlight.

Taillights are vertical rectangles inset into the bodywork just above the rear bumper. The interior is now very modern, tending toward luxury, with an instrument panel inset under an arched brow in early (wide) and late (less wide) styles. Springs are now coils, rather than leafs, at each corner.  1990 – 1997

In 2002 the Land Cruiser Prado was revised as 120 Series Prado, or in some markets, simply the Land Cruiser.  Seen in the United States as the Lexus GX 470. Body has 60 percent more torsional rigidity and very sophisticated electronic traction controls for improved off- and on-road performance, lower noise and better quality. Center of gravity was reduced, ensuring better stability. Together with a Torsen limited-slip central differential, Active Traction Control and Vehicle Stability Control provide outstanding mobility on almost any terrain.  2002 - Present















Toyota’s 2007 FJ Cruiser uses the 120 Series chassis design developed in 2002 and further optimized in 2005 for this application. Optimization includes increased fuel-tank clearance, 32-inch tires and more suspension articulation than on other iterations of the 120 Series. It features a wide, flat hood with rounded edges and a mesh grille between two round white headlights, per FJ40. Flat, vertical windshield,roof, wrap-around rear windows, short front/rear overhangs, angular wheel openings, off-center rear license plate, all per FJ40.
