The new Toyota Harrier has been unveiled in Japan, sporting a brand-new exterior design, sitting on a new TNGA platform and powered by TNGA powertrains. The turbocharged 4-cylinder unit from the outgoing model is gone – in its place now sits a choice between a naturally-aspirated 2.0-litre unit (171PS\/201Nm) or a 2.5-litre e-AWD Hybrid model (222PS combined). You can also get a Hybrid FWD model with the 2.5-litre mill too, though that only produces 218PS. All cars are mated with a CVT automatic gearbox in some form or another.

The new Harrier now features more active safety kit as standard, though how they’ll be distributed across the three trim levels (Z, G, S) remains to be seen. What’s clear though is that luxury and a ‘sense of calm’ are important factors for Toyota this time around, as the company has chosen a selection of low-contrast interior colourways and paired them with a panoramic sunroof that includes an electrochromatic feature on some models in order to meet those ends.

New technology also comes in the form of Toyota’s ‘Inner Mirror,’ which displays a camera feed from the rear into the centre mirror, allowing for a clear & unobstructed view of the road behind at all times, as well as a 12.3-inch TFT touchscreen infotainment display that will support Apple CarPlay & Android Auto.

The new 2020 Toyota Harrier will be made available in 7-colours.

So what do you guys think of the new Toyota Harrier? Interesting looking thing, isn’t it? We wonder if Toyota Malaysia will consider bringing in this new model – we’ve no doubt that if it does, it’ll be able to undercut the grey importers in terms of timeframe, which may even out the odds on pricepoint by the time grey import stocks arrive in our market.
