    Meet the all-new Toyota C-HR!
    Toyota has revamped this small crossover SUV, and Mat’s about to find out if it can compete with class leaders like the Volkswagen T-Roc and Ford Puma.
    When it comes to the design, the C-HR has had an overhaul and we think it looks great! It now comes with a sporty & futuristic design, from the spoiler effect with the rear lights through to the sleek & slim headlights at the front. The sloping roofline helps add to the sporty looks, and we’re happy to say there aren’t any fake exhausts or vents to be found.
    Step inside and the high-quality feel continues. There are soft-touch materials high up on the doors and the dash, and it’s also contoured to help it stand out a bit more. All but the entry-level cars get a big infotainment screen, and there’s also a set of digital dials for the driver. We’re also very happy that Toyota has left some physical climate control buttons, rather than including everything on the infotainment screen.
    There is a choice of two self-charging hybrid C-HRs. One comes with a 1.8-litre petrol engine that can produce 140hp, and the other comes with a 2-litre petrol engine that can put down 197hp. There’s also a plug-in hybrid model, and this also comes with a 2-litre petrol and it can produce 223hp.
    The price 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 with Mat and see for yourself!

      All the options, and a punchy 3.6L V6, with plenty of room inside.

    • @ruffmadman
      @ruffmadman 4 місяці тому +3

      I don't get this at all. The button shifters only apply to automatics, so you're not needing to constantly change gears. Also, when you are, typically you're not in motion, so why exactly would you need to look at the road? From Park to Reverse, your foot is on the brake. From Reverse to Drive, I sure hope you're stopped before you switch directions. I don't get it.🤷

      @ruffmadman 4 місяці тому +4

      @@MysticDragonForce nah, you're just making arbitrary rules at this point. A shift from R to D doesn't need to be smooth or have your eyes on the road because you *shouldn't be moving anyways* if you're sending the car's power in completely opposite directions. I've yet to know of anyone who slams the car into drive while reversing at 2 MPH. And you will eventually learn where the buttons are with muscle memory anyways.

    I recently got my hands on the 1.8L self-charging version of this exact car, and overall, it's been a very positive experience, earning a solid 9 out of 10 rating from me. It's incredibly comfortable to drive, and after a month of use, I've been pleasantly surprised to average around 60 miles per gallon (UK). However, there are a few quirks that I've noticed along the way.
    For starters, syncing trip data to the app requires a bit of a workaround - you have to be in park and click the privacy screen three times, otherwise, the data gets lost. Plus, the wipers on this car are quite noisy, and the rear screen tends to fog up easily, which can be frustrating, especially considering there's no rear wiper.
    Visibility out of the rear is also a bit limited, and the reversing camera's resolution leaves something to be desired. Another minor annoyance is the constant beeping - whether it's for going just a mile over the speed limit or changing speed zones, the alerts can get a bit excessive.
    The sound quality from the speakers (in the design spec), particularly in the radio, is not up to par with the rest of the car's tech. Plus, adjusting settings to disable these alerts can be a hassle, and they reset every time the car is turned off.
    I've also encountered a few issues with the doors opening slowly in hands-free mode, especially compared to my previous car, and sometimes it's just quicker to use the key. And while the car can comfortably fit three teenagers in the back, it does feel a bit sluggish, especially on uphill climbs.
    On the positive side, the rough material on the seats is actually quite practical, especially if you have kids. Overall, it's a great-looking car with some fantastic tech features, but there are definitely some areas that could use improvement.

    • @SaxJockey
      @SaxJockey 28 днів тому

      That's a useful critique. The lack of rear wiper is a concern in some conditions (drizzle, mucky road/rock salt etc...). Warnings resetting at power off could be annoying. I looked at the Design (UK) model yesterday, the boot floor shelf was not the same as shown in this video. The shelf was higher up (creating a low loading lip)...which made the boot capacity look quite small (less than the Yaris Cross). The sales assistant disliked that aspect, and could not see a way to lower the shelf due to the shape of the side trim (the shelf can be lowered on the Yaris Cross).

      Kawasaki (amongst others) do engine braking with a CVT on their quads, even as far back as 2002. Just like any modern electronically controlled drivetrain, one doesn't need artificially stepping ratios to change the drive ratio in the transmission to facilitate the feature. The only reason manufacturers put artificial steps in CVTs is folks complain about the drone.

    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.

      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.

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.

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.

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.

Just ordered a top spec with the same extras £41k with a discount, but 2l engine with plug in instead of 1.8l, plus a lot more tech and it is 6 years later. If you compare it with a VW T-Rock equivalent spec without Hybrid facility about the same price and the difference in long term running costs between 3 year and 10 year warrantee works out at around £5k.

    Interesting review, but there are a few Toyotaisms that seem to be present and correct, stuff made itself manifest in the winter. I have a 2021 Corolla TS. Lovely car within its remit, not sporty at all, but driven at 6/10 is superb. Warning sounds for practically everything were silenced with Carista. Ambient lighting, does it extend to the footwells? In my TS they don't. Are roof and boot buttons backlit? Where is the headlamp washers? Where is the sunglasses/driving glasses holder? Good to see they put a 'pointless tray' in the centre armrest, it is very usefull for putting coins, cheing gum, pens etc. Here are a few things I would love to see them checked: Does the car record individual trip mpg, or is it just an average between refills? Wireless pad is good to see, sadly my 2021 Corolla TS does not have one. Does the nearside wing mirror dip when you engage reverse? Does the keyfob operate the windows, or is it the usual fuff to switch the ignition on everytime I forget to close all windows before switching off? Another usual Toyotaism is the miles to empty function; in the Corolla it shows 0 miles yet the car still has two gallons to empty! I wonder which moron in Japan engineered that! No ski hatch in the back seat severely limits its practically. Do the lights switch on when the car is unlocked in the dark? Does the car give a warning when the screenwash is low? And finally, does the car have an autolock function where doors are locked once spped is 12mph and above? It seems to be a fine car in isolation, but if it is low on convenience features it will infuriate more than delight, despite its want-on vibes.
