About this 4x4

The car

The iconic FJ Cruiser is an incredibly powerful 4x4 with a 4.0L gasoline engine and a guaranteed automatic gearbox.

It suits couples and families of up to 5, and it can carry any of our three rooftop tents: Standard, Double or Hard-Shell. Like every car in our fleet it is set up for Costa Rica's back roads, with raised suspensions, mud-terrain tires, a front bumper, halogen lights, a snorkel and a side awning.

Very fun to drive - just the right size to not be too small and be comfortable and not be too big that you can't easily get into tight situations, bad roads etc.

… The camping set up of the car is very well done and the gear from the Costa Rican brand KOP is awesome. We had the Toyota FJ Cruiser and man, what an awesome vehicle. Concurs any road like it's nothing! …
Robin Jansen · Google review, 2026
We rented a Toyota FJ Cruiser in June for 3 weeks and this car really made our holiday extra special! What a great experience! Fully equipped and the rooftop tent was comfortable to sleep in and really easy to set up. …
kim van de put · Google review, 2026
… We rented an FJ Cruiser for 10 nights from late January to February, and it was the perfect choice for two adults. The vehicle provided ample storage space and had the power needed for passing slow cars and tackling challenging roads or water crossings. …
Patti Leff · Google review, 2026
… We opted for the large roof top tent which was nice for space to spread out as two adults and a toddler with hot nights. The very capable FJ took us everywhere we tried to take it and enabled us to see things we wouldn't have seen with a normal rental car. …

I rented an FJ for about 15 days and what a blast. It took me everywhere I wanted to go, which was mostly unpaved and occasionally very muddy! Great staff, a perfect experience.

We rented an FJ Cruiser from Nomad America for 8 nights, and it was an amazing experience. … The vehicle has literally everything you need for your adventure. The vehicle and all the equipment were in excellent condition. …
