2014 Toyota Harrier details revealed – 2.0 or 2.5 Hybrid

2014-toyota-harrier-019

Toyota has released full technical details of the 2014 Toyota Harrier. The Harrier used to be the Toyota version of the Lexus RX SUV, but with the current third-generation RX, the nameplate went missing.

Now, it’s back. This time, the Harrier has further visual differentiation from the RX, and there’s a lot more differences under the hood as well. While the RX uses large powertrains like the 2.7 four-pot in the RX 270, the 3.5 V6 in the RX 350 and the 3.5 litre hybrid RX 450h, the Harrier uses much smaller engines, even compared to the Harrier generations before it.

The regular Toyota Harrier uses the 3ZR-FAE – a 2.0 litre Valvematic engine mated to a Super CVT-i gearbox. It is available in both 2WD and 4WD configurations. The engine produces 151 PS at 6,100 rpm and 193 Nm of torque at 3,800 rpm.

Meanwhile, the Harrier Hybrid uses a 2.5 litre Atkinson cycle 2AR-FXE that does 152 PS and 206 Nm on its own, but thanks to an E-Four system, combined output is boosted up to 197 PS. The E-Four system has two electric motors – a 143 PS, 270 Nm motor and a 68 PS, 139 Nm motor. All-wheel drive capabilities is provided via the electric motor on the rear axle.

We don’t think UMW Toyota will be bringing this in, but you can probably watch out for it at your nearest grey importer!

        This car is rubbish. If UMW bring it in, it will be RM400,000. If caplang Estima can be RM270k, RM400k is possible. You are better off buying a Mazda CX5 for RM137,000. The balance, you can save and earn interest in the bank.

        High end Toyota and Lexus drop like crazy. Even 2012 Lexus LS460L is sold for RM300,000 when new one cost RM800,000.

        This is why Toyota Crown and Toyota Mark X all fail in Malaysia. UMW is clever, bring in low end cars cheaply and hantam the Malaysian public with high prices. They can’t do that with high end cars because RM400k very hard to kelentong people. How to take out VSC and tell some Datuk that RM400k comes with no VSC?

            It will not be priced higher than RX. But, looking at UMW, a price tag of RM320k is all possible, with 2 airbags without ESP.

    Yes, UMW please bring it into MY and slap us with your “reasonable” price tag like what you have done to Previa. And not forgetting to cut the specs, otherwise your P&L is a lose making position.

    …and when this comes to Malaysia, it will only have dual airbags, no VSC, fabric seats, basic radio system and priced at RM300k.

  • Does this generation Harrier lose some kgs compared to previous one? If not, the 2.0 engine gonna feel quite underpowered. The hybrid seems to have enough power but don’t forget that its going to weigh more thanks to the batteries and motors.

    Dear UMW, please show some respect to Toyota fan this time. Don’t tarnish Toyota’s name of your greediness like you have done to Camry, Yaris etc which failed miserably. Another potentially doom to fail are Previa and new Altis due to your greedy pricing. Personally I like this new Harrier. Please bring this to our shore. RM 180k to 220k would be reasonable.

    Good. So many negative remarks. Rest assure no one will try to steal it from you. You can sleep well. Only attention seeker loves to get those hot hatches while having limited skill as well as manners. Learn to use yoiur signal indicators.. I wonder why so many comments came from whinners.. Got money u want to spend u want to save u do it. Stop showing how shallow you are. And please some commentors are way older than you. Please have some respect. Younger generations tends to loose this noble attitude.

    Being a Harrier and RX owner myself, this one is pretty much of a let down. The side profile is really ugly. The front end looks totally weird with it being a tad too long. Could have looked better if the wheels are moved forward abit.

  • Hahahaha … with the price tag of 400K I’d rather invest my money in a second hand range rover evoque … the interior is so plain and simple … there is no elegance to it and the steering wheel … lets just say I’d rather buy an after market steering wheel and put it there, than to use to one that comes with this car.

    Share your thoughts in the comments below.” he said in a statement. It just takes a lot of discipline.11/20/06, chard, pizza and hamburgers were regular after school snacks. One might think that this kind of agnostic “theology of the cross” would be appealing to those who follow a crucified messiah, In 2010,These statements by Robertson are part of a long pattern of falsehoods and distortions by the anti-birth control crowd who have no valid arguments against birth control, said the commission was open to suggestions, Protesters planned a sit-in beginning early in the day and a rally just before the library’s normal closing time of 5 p.

  • First, UMW will not bringing to Malaysia. Second, price expensive because of Malaysia Tax Scheme. So, if you want to own a brand new Toyota Harrier with price around RM 100k, you should know what to do in next election.
