Toyota Harrier Zagato

This Toyota Harrier Zagato is a Lexus RX with a body kit by Zagato.

Vehicle Overview

The Toyota Harrier Zagato, a bespoke version of the Lexus RX tailored for the Japanese market, emerged in 2006 as a tribute to the 50th anniversary of Toyota’s Toyopet dealerships. Under the skilled hands of Italian designer Zagato, this commemorative edition underwent a striking transformation, epitomizing a fusion of Japanese engineering and Italian flair. Zagato’s aesthetic enhancements aimed to imbue the Harrier with a bolder, more muscular presence, transforming the Japanese SUV into an urban-ready off-road warrior. While the front end received subtle modifications, such as enlarged air intakes and a refined grille, it’s the profile that underwent the most dramatic changes. Here, aerodynamic appendages added a sense of aggression, with pronounced wheel arches and functional air vents aiding in brake cooling. The low-slung fascia seamlessly integrated with the overall aerodynamic kit, while golden emblem-adorned wheels provided a touch of opulence. At the rear, whitened taillights, a more prominent bumper, and a sleek spoiler contributed to the Harrier’s enhanced aesthetic and aerodynamic performance. While initially appearing bold and unconventional, these modifications echoed Zagato’s daring design ethos, aligning with both the brand’s creativity and the target market’s expectations. Zagato offered two kits for the Toyota Harrier, catering to different engine variants: one for the Harrier 240G “L” equipped with a 2.4-liter engine, and another for the Harrier 350G “L” featuring a robust V6 3.5-liter powerplant, both with 4WD transmission. Pricing for the Toyota Harrier by Zagato ranged from $42,000 to $48,800, offering exclusivity and performance for discerning buyers. To enhance the allure of the Harrier Zagato even further, the 250 models were offered only in striking colors of red, white, or black, ensuring a unique and distinguished driving experience. While the Toyota Harrier by Zagato may be a rarity outside Japan, its bold design and exceptional performance make it a coveted gem for enthusiasts seeking a blend of Japanese reliability and Italian sophistication.
