Toyota Teases FT-AC Off-Road Concept for L.A. Auto Show

 CARS.COM — Toyota put out a teaser photo today of the FT-AC — or, Future Toyota Adventure Concept — which appears to be an off-road-equipped SUV that it says will be unveiled Nov. 30 at the 2017 Los Angeles Auto Show.

Toyota provided no details beyond the headline promising “all the ingredients for your next adventure.” The shadowy photo shows a bulked-up front end with headlights supplemented by trail-ready LED light bars on the roof and additional LED clusters placed high in the big bumper. The photo also shows funky wheel arch trim.

Will the concept be a vision for a new version of the discontinued FJ Cruiser? That was a rumor last spring ahead of the 2017 New York International Auto Show, but the vehicle in question turned out to be the clever FT-4X, a small Swiss army knife of an SUV that Toyota said was designed for urban users and tamer weekend adventures. Its retro styling cues, however, evoked the ghosts of more recent FJ Cruisers, as well as the classic FJ40 Land Cruiser.
