2026 Toyota Harrier HEV Arrives In Malaysia From RM289,000

UMW Toyota Motor has officially introduced the new 2026 Toyota Harrier 2.5 Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV) in Malaysia.

And finally for tonight, Toyota's Hybrid Synergy Drive, which manages to match combustion, electric drive (and power generation) at variable speeds via a clever set of planetary gears they've dubbed "power split device".

This allows free mixing of torque from either the combustion engine or to/from either of the two motor-generators (each can function as either motor or generator) and the wheels.

It predates the Mitsubishi system, is almost certainly superior (it doesn't rely on a clutch and the combustion engine can engage the wheels at any speed) and along with a very streamlined shape gave the Toyota Prius its legendary fuel efficiency.

Hybrid cars are fun. So many different funky engineering solutions.

The Peugeot 508 RXH uses a manual gearbox with automated clutch (EGS). This has been used in the Citroen C5 before but was unpopular because it doesn't shift as well as a human driver and you end up with a sluggish automatic gearbox. That's why dual clutch gearboxes got invented.

But with an additional electric motor on the rear axle to bridge the EGS shifting pause, it works again. And you get AWD to get you out of a tricky spot. And of course the increased fuel efficiency of a hybrid, at the cost of complexity and less space in the trunk.

The NiMH packs on these are mostly degraded by now, but the small pack is relatively easy to repair and the cells are available.
