The 2019 Toyota Harrier 2.5L Hybrid (AVU65) is the pinnacle of the third-generation Harrier, representing a perfect intersection of executive luxury, environmental mindfulness, and Japanese engineering. Positioned as a more accessible alternative to the Lexus RX, this hybrid variant offers a whisper-quiet driving experience, a sophisticated "Hawk" aesthetic, and the reliability that has made Toyota a global leader. It is an ideal choice for the professional who values fuel efficiency without compromising on road presence or interior refinement.

 

​The heart of this vehicle is the 2.5L Atkinson Cycle engine paired with Toyota’s Hybrid Synergy Drive. The system delivers a combined output of approximately 197 hp, providing smooth, linear acceleration that feels more robust than the 2.0L petrol counterpart. One of its strongest selling points, achieving an impressive 18–21 km/L depending on driving style, extraordinary for a mid-sized SUV. This model features the electronic 4WD system, which uses a dedicated rear electric motor to provide traction on slippery surfaces without the weight or complexity of a traditional driveshaft.

 

​The 2019 model features the refreshed "late-model" styling of the 60-series: Sharp LED headlamps with sequential "flowing" turn signals and a distinct translucent blue emblem. Sitting on 18-inch alloy wheels, the coupe-like silhouette is complemented by chrome accents and a hidden exhaust for a clean, modern look.  The large glass roof floods the cabin with natural light, enhancing the sense of space.

 

​The cabin is designed with a "driver-centric" philosophy, using high-quality materials that rival luxury European brands. Quilted leather seats with power adjustments (and memory functions on higher trims) ensure maximum comfort for long journeys. Features like the Power Boot and Keyless Entry make daily errands effortless. The dual-zone system includes "Nanoe" air purification technology, ensuring the cabin air remains fresh and allergen-free.

 

​The 2019 Harrier is equipped with a comprehensive suite of active safety technologies: ​Pre-Collision System, Uses radar and cameras to detect obstacles and can apply emergency braking. ​Adaptive Cruise Control which automatically maintains a safe distance from the car in front, a feature you’ll find particularly useful for highway cruising. ​Lane Departure Alert that Provides steering assist to keep you centered in your lane.

The 2019 Harrier Hybrid remains a gold standard for professionals who want a vehicle that reflects their success without the high running costs or maintenance headaches of a traditional luxury brand. It is a smart, sustainable, and undeniably stylish investment that holds its value exceptionally well in the global market.
