Abstract: We introduce a new 2-parameter family of sigma models exhibiting Poisson-Lie T-duality on a quasitriangular Poisson-Lie group $G$. The models contain previously known models as well as a new 1-parameter line of models having the novel feature that the Lagrangian takes the simple form $L=E(u^{-1}{u}_{+},u^{-1}{u}_{-})$ where the generalised metric $E$ is constant (not dependent on the field $u$ as in previous models). We characterise these models in terms of a global conserved $G$-invariance. The models on $G=S{U}_2$ and its dual $G^{s}tar$ are computed explicitly. The general theory of Poisson-Lie T-duality is also extended; we develop the Hamiltonian formulation and the reduction for constant loops to integrable motion on the group manifold. Finally, we generalise T-duality in the Hamiltonian formulation to group factorisations $D=GdcrossM$ where the subgroups need not be dual or even have the same dimension and need not be connected to the Drinfeld double or to Poisson structures.
