The
new Toyota Harrier has already been given a large selection of dress-up parts
from Toyota’s Modellista arm. As with the company’s recent efforts, the SUV is
being offered with two bodykit variants, the Gran Blaze and the hilariously
named Avant Emotional.
Both kits are fairly ornate, with large
front, side and rear skirting and either chrome or metallic grey accents. The
main difference is that the Avant Emotional has hidden exhaust tips, while the
Gran Blaze gets quad rectangular tailpipes.
There are also a number of accessories
that are common between the two, including a new grille with LED illumination,
rear spoiler and chrome garnishes for the bonnet, lower grille, wing mirrors,
D-pillars and tailgate, plus 20-inch “Wing Dancer XIV” two-tone alloy wheels.
Elsewhere, there are projected welcome
lights with a blue design, blue interior ambient lighting, footwell lights and
a light for the luggage compartment, which can also be outfitted with a wood
floor that Modellista says makes cleaning it an easier affair. A metal garnish
kit for the doors is also available.
The new Toyota Harrier is now on sale in Japan,
priced between 2,990,000 yen and 5,040,800 yen. It
rides on the GA-K variant of the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) and is
powered by either a 171 PS/207 Nm 2.0 litre naturally-aspirated Dynamic Force
engine (paired to a Direct Shift CVT) or a 218 PS 2.5 litre Hybrid. The 2.0
litre turbo engine in the outgoing model has been discontinued.
