On 28-May, during the "Multi-Pathway Workshop," Toyota, Mazda, and Subaru jointly announced their future engine technologies, centred on the integration of electrification and efficiency. Most reports centred around the engines itself and Toyota's odd blob of a test mule, but Japanese publication Best Car follows through with a report that says the next-gen Toyota Harrier could run on a 1.5-litre engine. Reports from the publication state that the engine will be paired with Toyota's hybrid and p

Ahead of its imminent launch (you can register your interest as well), we managed to get our hands on a Malaysian-spec leaflet for the 2021 Toyota Harrier.

In its place is Toyota's Dynamic Force 2.0-litre naturally aspirated 4 pot (173 PS, 203 Nm) which is paired to a Direct Shift CVT transmission. Basically, this powertrain combo is identical to the one pulling duty

Though it is mostly a pathetic year and not one we envisioned when we were younger (90s kids will remember this), the cars that were launched were at least worth it (some weren't). Instead of gushing over what are our favourite cars of 2020, for now, we would like to focus on what cars to get excited for next year. Here’s a quick summary of what models would be launched in 2021. 2021 Car Launches Brand Model BMW 2

If the 2020 Toyota Harrier isn’t enough for your taste, Gazoo Racing (GR) just released a sporty-looking body kit only available in Japan. Form over Function The body kit adds a sporty-looking front and rear diffuser, side visor fins, side skirts and a rear spoiler. You can further add on air intakes on the bumpers, 4 stainless steel-tipped faux exhausts, red racing stripes, 20-inch black multispoke alloy rims and tinted windows. So is there anything functional?

Slightly less than a week after the all-new 2021 Toyota Harrier was leaked online, Toyota has released preliminary specifications of its SUV. Goodbye turbo power From the provided specifications, Toyota has dropped the outgoing model's 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine, replacing it with two Dynamic Force powertrains. The first is a 2.0-litre M20A-FKS naturally-aspirated petrol engine that does 171 PS at 6,600 rpm and 207 Nm at 4,800 rpm, hooked up to a Direct Shift CVT. Apart from the natura
