Toyota AR engine
Template:Short description Template:Infobox automobile engine
The AR engine family is an Inline-4 piston engine series by Toyota, first introduced in 2008 for the RAV4, and subsequently for the Highlander, Venza, Camry and Scion tC.
The AR series uses a die-cast aluminium engine block and aluminium DOHC cylinder head. The engine series shares many of the technologies in the AZ engine, while incorporating features such as variable valve timing on both intake and exhaust camshafts or dual VVT-i, low friction technologies including an offset crankshaft, roller rockers for the valvetrain, a three-stage variable oil pump, reduced-tension piston rings and auxiliary belt drive. An Acoustic Control Induction System switches the length of the intake tract in two stages, based on rpm and throttle angle, thereby ensuring strong torque across a broad engine speed range. New tumble control valves enhances combustion while the engine is cold, and helps to bring the catalytic converters up to working temperature quickly. The Tumble control valves, along with new 12-hole high atomizing long-nozzle fuel injectors, reduce the amount of fuel adhering to the intake ports and therefore maximize fuel economy and reduce harmful emissions.
The cylinder block is an open-deck, midi-skirt type with cast-in iron liners and a die-cast aluminium lower crankcase and a stamped oil pan. The forged steel crankshaft is fully balanced with eight counterweights and supported by five main bearings. A helical gear pressed in No. 3 counterweight drives twin contra-rotating balance shafts in the shaft housing within the lower crankcase.
The AR engine replaces the AZ engine.
1AR-FE
Template:Infobox automobile engine
A 2.7 L version of the AR family, first released in the Venza[1] and Highlander in late 2008.[2]
The 1AR-FE most likely ended production in 2020. No official statements were made by Toyota about the engine's status, however, no new cars used this engine after 2020. It was replaced by the A25A-FKS engine.

2AR-FE
Template:Infobox automobile engine
A 2.5 L version of the AR family, first released in the RAV4 in the U.S. and Canada in 2008.[3] This engine also replaced the 2AZ-FE in the U.S. and Canada Camry in early 2009, giving 11% better fuel economy.[4] The engine service mass is 324 lb (147 kg) that includes the oil and coolant fully filled. The engine is used in vehicles sold in Japan, U.S., Australia,[5] New Zealand,[6] China, Taiwan, Korea, Malaysia, Philippines, Thailand[7] Indonesia, and Middle East.

2AR-FXE
Script error: No such module "Unsubst". The 2AR-FXE[8] is an Atkinson cycle variant of the 2AR-FE. It has the same bore and stroke, but the cams and pistons are unique. Only the intake valves are variable with VVT-i.[9] Geometrical compression ratio is 12.5:1
The large valve overlap leads to a reduction in cylinder charge and reduced torque and power output, but efficiency is increased. This combination makes the 2AR-FXE suitable for use in hybrid vehicles, where peak torque and power demands can be met by the electric motor and battery. Maximum output of the engine when used in the Camry hybrid is 154 hp with 153 lb·ft of torque.
Applications:
- Toyota Camry Hybrid (AVV50)
- Toyota Avalon Hybrid (XX40)
- Toyota Harrier Hybrid (XU60)
- Lexus NX 300h (AZ10)
- Toyota Alphard/Vellfire Hybrid/Crown Vellfire (AH30)
- Lexus ES 300h (XV60)
- Toyota RAV4 Hybrid (XA40)
- Lexus LM 300h (AH30)
2AR-FSE
Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
The 2AR-FSE [10] is a variant of the 2AR-FE equipped with D4-S direct-injection and port injection. It has the same bore and stroke as other 2AR engines but the cylinder head, cams, pistons and fuel management system are unique. Maximum thermal efficiency is about 38.5%.[11] The expansion ratio is 13.0 to 1.
Output in the Toyota Crown hybrid combined is Script error: No such module "convert". at 6000 rpm and Script error: No such module "convert". at 4200–5400 rpm.
Applications:
