TheToyota Harrier(Japanese:トヨタ・ハリアー,Hepburn:Toyota Hariā)is a five-passengercompact,latermid-size crossover SUVproduced byToyotasince December 1997 in Japan, which was once exclusive toToyopet StoreJapanese dealerships. In export markets, the Harrier wasrebadgedas theLexus RXfrom March 1998 to December 2008. At this stage, Toyota had yet to retail theLexusbrand to its Japanese customers.

The second generation (XU30) debuted in February 2003, along with the export Lexus version. The third-generation RX (separated from the Harrier) arrived in late 2008, while the Harrier continued on in second-generation form unchanged (although the second generation Harrier 350G, equivalent to second generation RX350, was discontinued after the release of third generation Lexus RX). Lexus had by now made its debut in Japan as an independent marque, thus the third-generation RX was sold in the domestic market in the same livery as its export counterpart.

The third generation (XU60) debuted in 2013, when it morphed into an independent model line constructed on a separate platform from the RX (the Harrier since then built on the same platform as theRAV4) but retaining a visual link with it. Starting at this point, it is considered as a more road-oriented and upmarket alternative to the RAV4, comparable to theluxury-classLexus NX.From the fourth generation (XU80), it is also sold as thesecond-generation Venzain North America and China.

The Harrier is named for theeastern marsh harrier,abird of preycommon toHokkaidōand northernHonshūcalled thechūhiin Japanese, and an emblem depicting the bird in stylized profile can be found on the grille until the XU60 model.

Released on 2 December 2013 in Japan for the petrol model and 15 January 2014 for the hybrid model, the XU60 series Harrier replaced not only its XU30 series namesake, but also theXA30 series Vanguard.Unlike the second and third-generation RX, which is built on theK platform,the XU60 series Harrier derived from theXA40 series RAV4'sNew MCunderpinnings.[3]

Trim levels available in Japan include Grand, Elegance, and Premium for both the petrol and hybrid models. The top-of-the-line Premium trim came withJBLGreenEdge audio with 8-inchT-Connecttouchscreen entertainment system with navigation and sensing features. A "Style Mauve" special edition and subsequently the "Style Ash" special edition was released later.

The XU60 series Harrier received afacelifton 8 June 2017. For the facelift model, the Grand trim was removed and Elegance became the base trim. The Progress trim replaced Premium as the flagship trim, with the "Metal and Leather Package" added to both Premium and Progress trims. The "Style NOIR" special edition fornaturally-aspiratedPremium trim were also added later. A Turbo model was introduced with a 2.0-litreturbocharged8AR-FTSengine mated to a 6-speedU661automatic transmission,while the 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated3ZR-FAEand 2.5-litre2AR-FXEhybridengines remained.

The XU60 series Harrier was the first Harrier to be officially sold outside of Japan. It was offered in Singapore and Malaysia. In Malaysia, it was introduced in November 2017 with two trim levels offered: Premium and Luxury. Both trim levels are powered by a 2.0-litre8AR-FTSengine.[4]
