Japanese media: Toyota will release a composite crossover based on RAV4

The Best Car Web portal claims that the next generation of the Harrier model will move more from the eminent bestseller. According to insiders, Toyota is considering the possibility of changing the form factor on a cross-wrapper, increasing the length of the wheelbase and reducing overhang. The expected power plant is a self-loading hybrid based on a new 1.5-liter turbo engine with an electric E-Four.

The current Toyota Harrier has been produced since 2020, and in the current generation the crossover uses the RAV4 chassis with an identical wheelbase. However, the sixth modeling of the model can get a “stretched” trolley from Crown Sport. TNGA-K architecture will not change, so the “kinship” will remain between all crossovers.

And without that, the sloping body of Harrier can be transformed even more towards cross-wrapping, although the prototypes have not yet come across to photoshpions. The new crossover will become the first -born with the Toyota X15 turbo engine with a working volume of 1.5 liters. The engine will operate as part of a HEV hybrid power plant, and the maximum system power will be 250 horsepower.

Before the debut of the new Toyota Harrier for at least two years, so that some adjustments can be made. It is curious that in China the crossover of the same name is also there, and according to local journalists, the development of RAV4 for the domestic market will be given to joint ventures. Against this background, the 1.5 turbo engine rate may be true, because similar units are used by the main competitors.
