The FJ Cruiser seats five. The front doors are standard, front-hinged units. Rear-hinged access doors ease egress to the back seat and cargo area. Rear access to the cargo area is through a door hinged on the driver's side of the vehicle instead of a typical roof-hinged hatch-style closure.I love my FJ Cruiser and so do my two German Shepherds! I love my FJ Cruiser! No alarm feature on mine .
