The next-generation Toyota Harrier will reportedly debut in 2027, and the upcoming model will be powered by a 1.5 litre turbocharged hybrid powertrain, according to Best Car Web. Here, visual rendering maestro Theophilus Chin has offered his take on what the fifth-generation SUV could look like, using elements from the Toyota C-HR and RAV4.
Here, the upcoming fifth-generation model has been visually rendered using the current model Harrier/Venza as its base, albeit with elements from Toyota’s latest models such as the C-HR and RAV4.
The front fascia draws from the 2026 RAV4 in its lower section, while the headlamp assemblies of a more pointed design appear to be more alike those of the new, e-TNGA-based battery-electric C-HR. At the rear, the tail lamps are also adapted from the C-HR, where the full-width element is augmented by a four-segment LED assembly is used on this Harrier rendition.
Along the sides, Theo has used more angular surfacing compared to that on the current, fourth-generation Harrier, with the crease lines running diagonally along the side of the vehicle while the trapezoidal lower cladding section used here is similar in shape to those on the C-HR and RAV4.
Lower down, the tailgate appears to be adapted from the C-HR as well, with its mid-mounted license plate position, and the rear bumper gets the C-HR’s split diffuser styling. Higher up, the daylight opening from the current fourth-generation Harrier is used, with a frameless look for the section aft of the C-pillar, while the rear window angle is somewhere between that of the sloping C-HR and the more upright RAV4.
Codenamed XU80, the current, fourth-generation Harrier made its debut in April 2020, using the GA-K derivative of Toyota’s TNGA architecture and brought the carmaker’s range of Dynamic Force petrol and petrol-electric hybrid powertrains, replacing the 2.0 litre turbo petrol unit of its predecessor.
The fifth-generation Toyota Harrier is expected to debut in 2027; what do you think of this rendition?
Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
And Toyota will be asking above 300k for it.
Any news of next generation Corolla? It’s older than the current generation Harrier.
With Malaysia’s massive Toyota fanbase, why bring in new models when they can continue to milk with their old techs.
Well, UMW (now Sime) will pull the same trick and only offer the entry level version here. Just like the current XU80 Harrier. We only officially get the 2.0 FWD here. Want the AWD Hybrid? You need to visit a sketchy recon dealer and hope you don’t get a lemon.
The current harrier is not really that old and it also better looking toyota on sale. It only need to reposition its rear turn signals much higher and nappa leather seats and upholstery like the 2nd gen used to have
Dah lah tambi. Banyak cakap macam expert tapi sendiri pakai kereta biasa je. Tak yah lah tunjuk hebat.
Dah la B40. Banyak kecam org tapi sendiri miskin. Tak yah lah tunjuk cerdik.
no worries, just change to eagle eyes rear lamp, look better and handsome. btw, thats the ony harrier problem right
Don’t think they will use the angular design language, looking at all the Harriers, maybe something closer to the Crown looks. Try that
Would Toyota neq hybrids be using a variant of BYD DMI plug-in PHEV transmission?.
Lol turbo overheat 1.5 engine condemn good luck
The coupe version in and out,
Has always felt like a more premium drive and ride.
Yet, Harrier is a coupe that comes with good 2nd rows reclination.
Don’t like this design at all…
There are still translate due to time..Why?
