E-cvt is very different from conventional CVT... Conventional CVT transmission uses belt that run between two conical pulleys, while e-CVT is a non belt gearbox with single gear that allows two power inputs (engine or electric moter-MG2 moter) to run the car. So speed of a car is determine by engine speed/RPM and not by gear ratio changing.. so this is why these hybrid cars make engine noises at higher speed because engine rpm is not compensated by gear ratio changing.. also hybrid cars tend to have worse gas mileage at high way because of the way how hybrid car is designed... At high way speed the engine will be always on and battery will always be low, and regenerative braking system will be less working because of less application of brakes, this makes hybrid car to be less fuel efficient at higher speed. It being light it is for fuel efficiency This car also comes with adaptive cruise control.. so ungeelezea uzuri wa adaptive cruise control The other thing ungeelezea maintenance ya hybrid car... Na namna ya kuishi nayo. (Living with hybrid car si sawa na regular car.. kuna namna ya ku service battery kuhakikisha haifi kutokana na joto.. Something to remember, with hybrid cars, the mechanic person who is to work on these cars should real know what he is doing(qualified one who know how to work on hybrid electrical systems), the average mechanic person can't work on them unless it is for oil changing.. hapa Tanzania wengi wana-ziharibu.

Thanks bother. Things to add.. With hybrid cars it is good to know where is the hybrid battery (at the back seat) na what are things to avoid loading in car with hybrid battery at the back seat..vitu kama maji(items that are liquid) vinatakiwa viwe properly handled ili kusiwe na spilling out kwakua maji yakiingia ndan ya battery hufanya corrosion (hybrid battery are not water resistant) Pia avoid using 12v battery to jump start another non hybrid car, Avoid leaving gas tank door open for more than 30min...non compliance to this may be very dangerous for yo car..kumbuka kwakua hybrid car engine not always is on so gasoline vapor ventilation ya hizi gari ni tofaut na non hybrid car, where non hybrid car ipo na charcoal canister kwa ajili ya catching of fuel vapor from the gas tank na kupeleka hizo vapour to engine kua burnt, but for hybrid it is different the mechanisms for handling fuel vapor ventilation. What kills hybrid battery ni joto, sasa hybris cars zipo na dedicated fan for cooling hybrid batteries, sasa hii fan huwa na filter, filter tends to clog and limit airflow, so with limited air flow inasababisha cooling efficiency inapungua na kusababisha over heating of hybrid battery and premature failure of hybrid battery.

@@CARNVERSATIONS Also what you were referring as hybrid battery was actually an electric power management module, where you will find inverter that amplify dc voltages to three phase electricity to power motor and electric ac compressor.. also in that module there is dc to dc converter that steps down higher dc voltages to 12 voltages required by various car systems like radio, lights, wipers, power window, central lock system, fuel pump also to charge a small 12 v battery as these cars don't have regular alternator. Thanks for sharing your contact with me.

@@tanzaniacarschannel6975 True, the battery is usually under the 2nd row seat

Make sure to do an awards show at the end of the year for reviewed cars on the different categories...

Point of correction, the Harrier Hybrid is a 2.5L, and the battery is stored under the rear seat. The component you pointed at the front is the Inverter/converter unit

This car has the absolute looks. Love your content bro.

I like this show🙂 Big up from yo newest subscriber🥂

To be precise this model car is AVU65 FOR AWD Hybrid. ZSU65 for Non hybrid AWD. ZSU60 2WD Non hybrid and ZSU65 AWD

Thanks Erick this is quite educative. Was considering upgrading and this was my choice (non-hybrid). Feeling a bit hesitant because of the clearance (front bumper seems very close to the ground), the fact that you've said that its bulky and a bit light and being a soft off road. I often do like 25% off road.

hi Erick, my request; mitsubishi outlander prolly 2015 one

Listening to what you said about the 2014 Harrier, i feel like i drive a probox with my 2000 3000cc V6 harrier. Its a beast on the road but thats about it. Nothing more to add to it hahahahahahaah

Also do a review of FJ CRUISER.

You need to also do reviews of older versions like 2007 - 2010 as not everyone would buy a newer version tuskie specs vizuri

I'm a real estate broker and I'm looking to upgrade my ride ( I need something to make an impression!). After extensive review I'm down to the Harrier or Honda CRV between 2014-2020. So do help me make the right decision Bro which should I get?

I love sharp breaks

Have you done the crv new model

How does it compare to the Vanguard it is replacing?

Heeeey, Carniversations.... Thank for the Toyota Harrier 2014 upclose.... would you bring us lexus? for me lexus RX 450h maybe even compare it to the Harrier?

I feel you didn't do this vehicle justice, so many gaps left on this review, like does it have brake discs both at the front and back wheels, or what makes those brakes so sharp? also how reliable is the engine since it has been reduced from 2400cc to 2000cc?
