Toyota has officially unveiled in Japan the 2014 Harrier which is basically a rebadged version of the Lexus RX.
The car is scheduled to go on sale on December 2nd with a
2.0-liter 4-cylinder engine mated to a CVT sending power to a standard
two-wheel drive or an optional four-wheel drive system. The power unit
develops 151 HP (111 kW) and a peak torque of 193 Nm and enables the car
to have a fuel consumption in the JC08 Japanese cycle of 16 km/l (6.2
liters / 100 km or 37.9 mpg US or 45.5 mpg UK).
et to be sold exclusively in Japan, the 2014 Harrier adopts a
significantly modified front fascia compared to the RX, packing a pair
of appealing darkened headlamps, an Avalon-like large air intake as well
as what appears to be a glossy transparent plastic grille. At the back
there are stylish slender taillights and a roof-mounted spoiler.
Official details about what powers the Harrier
are not known at this moment but we will find out in the near future as
the car will allegedly reach dealerships this winter. Since the
attached photos show the "Hybrid Synergy Drive" badge.
Wait until January 15, 2014 and you can order the new Harrier in a
hybrid version equipped with a 2.5-liter engine and an electric motor
providing a combined output of 196 HP (144 kW) and 206 Nm (152 lb-ft).
Toyota mentions the Harrier Hybrid will be sold exclusively with a
four-wheel drive arrangement.
The 2014 Toyota Harrier starts at 2,720,000 JPY (about 27,300 USD /
20,300 EUR / 17,175 GBP) for the standard model and from 3,610,000 JPY
(36,300 USD / 27,000 EUR / 22,800 GBP) for the hybrid derivative.
