What parts of the world was the HJ6x series originally offered? (1 Viewer)

The HJ60, 61, 62; where was it originally sold new? Europe, Australia, Middle East, Asia? Was it offered in Central and South America? Im pretty sure that Canada got the BJ60s, did it get HJs as well?

Pretty sure both variants of the diesel were sold everywhere BUT the US. I know that I have seen Canadian HJs on here.

AFAIK, every country that had Toyota had the BJ and HJ except for the US.

Canada got HJ's in 1986 and 1987. Pretty sure those were the only years.

Australia never got the BJ60

Middle east got very few diesel Land Cruisers. Guess gas is cheap there for some reason.

Very few is different than zero though. They got some!

KSA never got the diesel 40s or 60s. 80s and onward we did get, but I would gusstimate less than 5% that were imported came with diesels.

Wonder if the US didn't have so many emission and safety regulations if Toyota would be willing to import more models and engine options. Probably claim it would be too hard to support a few vehicles.

Thanks to all for the informative responses.

Im pretty sure thats exactly the reason; also probably why we don't get the 70 series here.
