Compare the best brand-new & secondhand handle :

Fulfill the all-new !

has actually revamped this little crossover SUV, and Mat's about to discover if it can compete with class leaders like the Volkswagen T-Roc and Ford Puma.

When it concerns the design, the C-HR has had an overhaul and we believe it looks excellent! It now features a sporty & futuristic design, from the spoiler impact with the rear lights through to the smooth & slim headlights at the front. The sloping roofline helps contribute to the stylish looks, and we're happy to say there aren't any fake exhausts or vents to be discovered.

Step inside and the top quality feel continues. There are soft-touch products high up on the doors and the dash, and it's likewise contoured to assist it stand out a bit more. All but the entry-level get a big infotainment screen, and there's likewise a set of digital dials for the motorist. We're likewise extremely pleased that has left some physical climate control buttons, rather than consisting of whatever on the infotainment screen.

There is a choice of 2 self-charging hybrid C-HRs. One includes a 1.8-litre petrol engine that can produce 140hp, and the other includes a 2-litre petrol engine that can put down 197hp. There's likewise a plug-in hybrid model, and this likewise features a 2-litre gas and it can produce 223hp.

The cost range kicks off at ₤ 31,000, rising to around ₤ 43,000 for the top-of-the-range C-HR. So is it worth it ?! You'll need to stick to Mat and see on your own!

    glad to see Toyota putting some effort into making a nice interior. The dashboard brake indicator thing kinda makes sense on the hybrids.

    Hi Mat, great review as usual. I love this CHR but I feel Toyota should have only made the 2L hybrid and 2L PHEV. Also, the high price of this new car is a deal breaker for me. I am now looking at a used Rav4 PHEV for a similar price, that, has more to offer like – more HP, and boot space.

      Majority of CHR’s sold are 1.8. Why would toyota withdraw, especially if that engine has been massively improved?

      Why does it bother you that it has a 1.8l 140hp option? For example I think that when you have two very efficient hybrid options the phev it’s pointless and probably you will be better with an EV and also you will need 100.000miles to start saving money on fuel going just electric.

      @@DK07x Although, I haven’t driven the new CHR but my experience with this outgoing CHR was that, the 1.8L was a bit slower than the 2L HEV. I heard that Toyota does not have any plans for bringing the new Prius in the UK. This upgraded CHR is meant to replace the old CHR and also the Prius 1.8L HEV/PHEV. Carwow has reviewed the new Prius with 2L in the US and I noticed the Prius HEV has 194Hp/196HP as FWD/AWD and the new Prius PHEV is 223Hp. So why can’t they do this new CHR just like the new Prius in the UK?

      @@andreiarama8745 It bothers me because the outgoing CHR 1.8L is much slower than its 2L alternative. Carwow did review the current CHR 2L in 2020. The 2L CHR has a bigger battery and it is a bit more efficient than the 1.8L. I am sure I won’t be better off with an EV. I would always choose a PHEV over an EV because, the cost of ownership (insurance, Depreciation, out-of-warranty battery replacement, unscheduled maintenance & repairs) of a PHEV is lower than a comparable EV.

      @@dayoadeosun1520 The new Prius will come to the UK, but exclusively as a PHEV 2.0. The CHR features that same engine. The previous gen CHR 1.8 was well underpowered, but still most people chose that over the 2.0. The new 1.8 is sweet, the power is just about right for this car – the 2.0 is still nicer and much better on acceleration, but it’s debatable whether it’s worth paying the extra money for it. Another really good thing they did with the new 2.0l C-HR is that you don’t really lose any boot space by going with it, whereas you did lose space in previous gen.

    Had the previous generation top spec heated steering wheel the lot. The 2.0l had plenty of power but if I was to get one a again the plugin sounds ideal enough to do short journeys on electric only and the engine for pain free long journeys like my 330e

      You can get a fully loaded Dodge Caravan here in North America for the equivalent price of about 16,000 GBP ($27,000 CAD).
      All the options, and a punchy 3.6L V6, with plenty of room inside.
      It boggles my mind to see EU vehicle prices.
      They really want to price regular folks out of being able to afford a car over there.

      True – my 2017 C-HR with top trim C-HIC, and 1.2T AWD was 29.000€!
      And still is the best band for the buck then and now – you get a full AWD car used for unter 20.000€ now.

    The reason I consider to have a lever for changing gears rather than button is that with buttons you have to take your eyes from the road, while with a gear lever not, especially I prefer the lever that changes the position (old school).

    They should have increased the wheelbase on this by 2 inches to improve rear seat space… they need to do the same with the next gen RAV4 so the two don’t overlap. The Corolla Cross could have also done with being based on the sedan wheelbase not the hatch
