2022 Toyota Harrier 2.0L Review in Malaysia, A Proper Premium SUV That's Worth RM249k! | WapCar

Hope the facelift Harrier gets the same turbo engine as the Lexus NX350, or a new hybrid variant.

[@WapCar]

A punchier powertrain would be nice to have 👍

[@NinoPanino]

The new 2.4T will drive the prices up tremendously.

[@luqmanhakimi910]

@@NinoPanino Well that cannot be avoided really, thanks to our excise duties. Plus, Harriers usually only come in CBU form. The hybrid could be a nice balance of performance and efficiency. But will it get tax rebates for being a hybrid?

[@YouCCP2]

Premium suv with a cheap touchscreen display?

[@luqmanhakimi910]

@@YouCCP2 Yeah. That is weird. With that price point should be more premium. I guess the price will increase if they use good ones? I dunno.

[@nickloong]

It's a subjective topic in terms of how we define a vehicle as being a luxury model, but man, a vehicle that suffers from wind noise at above 80km/h, an aftermarket like infotainment screen, a CVT gearbox and an asthmatic engine for an asking price of Rm250k? Does all that shortcoming it suffers from still qualify it as a luxury model? Lol!😅

[@mohdsyazwanramli-sam3204]

I have been drvg around 6 months since last Aug 2021 and so far so good..n it is indeed a very comfortable car, and the speed 185-200km/h d on highway still comfortable..i really hope umw will bring 2.5Hybrid in their next facelift :)

But NA is more durable than turbo, even maintenance cost is also cheaper than turbo. Besides, Harrier 2.0NA top speed is better than previous Harrier turbo, even acceleration for Harrier 2.0NA is not as good as Harrier turbo, but it is not bad

no matter how good is the chassis wise, if the engine is out of breath at 110km/h then it is a pass for me. The 2nd gen Harrier with 2.4 engine is already a hard work on the highway. Not gonna to repeat the same experience again.

[@feyfey88]

My uncle ordered a GLA 250 during MCO and no demo car at that moment, after he got his car he regrets immediately. Because no traditional gear knob, and the car always brake itself when he wants leaving the parking lot. Now he saw his friend bought Recon Harrier, don't know how is his feeling.

[@jpngion]

Hands down one of the most supple riding, balanced handling SUVs out there. Love the seats and cabin. Just needs the RAV4's 2.5-litre powerplant!

[@emilylimsl9884]

But 2.0 Dynamic Force Engine NA is also good power with more top speed and good acceleration but better fuel consumption for this Harrier

[@jswong8200]

Yeah, but too bad there isn't a 2.5L Dynamic Force variant with the 8-speed auto. That would have made this car perfect for those of us who won't fancy the 2.5 hybrid..

[@adamcham4591]

2.5L will be better

[@emilylimsl9884]

2.0 Dynamic Force Engine is also good enough, at least better than third gen Harrier that uses 2.0 turbo with 180 km/h for top speed

[@weeshianchong7594]

Better than the cx8?

[@Panjangl]

250k I would personally go for a v60 or save that money go for cx5

[@amirfirdaus9419]

couldn’t agree more

[@emilylimsl9884]

Depends on your choices. But Harrier can’t compare with V60 as stationwagon and CX5 is budget car but not premium as this. Harrier 2.0 is affordable and cheaper than third gen Harrier

[@yangerek78]

Well Cx5 is already almost end of its life probably a new one will come sooner or later while the V60 is not even the same class Harrier

[@lokekaryew8408]

Good summary Adrian on the Harrier. How to live with that wind noise at such low speed >80kph....despite excellent NVH?

[@teelim]

How can you call this a "Proper Premium SUV" when it has such a tiny, aftermarket looking center screen? And such a weak engine! Equip it with the larger center screen, and also the 2.5L Dynamic Force Engine, and then we're talking...

[@aimanfitri0iv]

that 2.5 df only available in overseas it's not sold in our market the largest center screen is only available in overseas because in our market it doesn't have a official mcmc approval even in sg at least in sg gets a hybrid model and larger engine capacity 2.5 df

[@teelim]

@@aimanfitri0iv it's fine if that's the case, then just price it appropriately and don't call it premium when it's not. The Camry, at RM200k is much better equipped IMHO

[@aimanfitri0iv]

@@teelim at least for now you can consider other options even with the camry

[@teelim]

@@aimanfitri0ivactually I think it's normal for companies to release products that are not the best bang for buck; but it's the duty of the reviewers to call it out as they see it. It is also their duty to highlight other potential options that someone who has RM250k to spend on a car, to consider. IMHO, the Harrier, even if priced at RM200k, is still a poorer value when compared to the Camry. And even that itself is not exactly the best bang for buck. So, at RM250k, with a weak engine and a joke of a center screen, the Harrier is absolutely poor value.

[@aimanfitri0iv]

@@teelim by the way is not a weaker engine it's still decent enough and that headunit you can forget about it because at least it has apple carplay and android auto because in our market we don't get the bigger headunit because of the radio frequency

[@potterdumble2396]

Why downgrade the engine from turbo to NA?

[@mithilas1837]

Harrier looks nice but low horse power. The odometer maximum is 140km/hr... I have test driven one unit. Feels like driving a truck. If you used to driving proton x70 or x50, you won't enjoy the drive as you can't get the power with 2litre engine without turbo. But it's comfortable ride. Steering a bit hard. Hardly any response to acceleration especially if you want to overtake. Lexus is responsive & powerful. Toyota harrier require modern engine actually to make it to a best car list.

I'm pretty sure the "better alternatives" are compromised in certain areas too. CX5 is more powerful but smaller and without ACC, no ADAS on Tiguan, the Germans are more powerful but not as spacious nor well equipped as Harrier.
