Skop ppp ppp often pppp
I remember seeing this thing driving down a local road and I was absolutely mindblown. It's just so... noticeable.
Pretty brave design for Toyota.
Frocobo | yes it is and it is being made in Turkey in our country
Sarp Günaydın and very expensive to buy it in Turkey 🤔
Aye, I saw the Toyota today and I was like: "I want this car!!!! >///
Rock solid cars too
It's better looking than a juke. Better in person.
I agree!😂
To me this looks more like a Honda. Even the name C-HR is a bit Honda like (CR-V, HR-V, CR-Z).
Stealth those back lights look exactly like the civics
its a toyota answer for Honda Fit/Jazz and yeah the HR-V
C-HR = Crush-Honda Revolution
guess it was the whole point, maybe to lure in Honda people?
Lol i was searching for honda C-Hr and i couldn't found it
It's 2017 Why are touch screens in cars still so slow?
more money for the car brand, keep everything in house
PasteyWhiteboy ,oldstock lcd screen inventory.
PasteyWhiteboy those processors need to keep up with the high/low temperature, vibration and stay functional for a long time, a normal mobile phone/tablet chip won't do well, so i guess that's what hold them back
They should all be banned. They are dangerous.
Look at the tesla one😂😂its a 13 inch touchscreen
Personally I like the back seat to be somewhat secluded like that, Dark is okay, it's like a little cocoon, isolated from the outside world and private.
Just got a hybrid and it's great. I don't sit in the back when I'm driving so I don't care. anyone complains, they can walk...The rear door handles are side hinged so you can open them like a normal handle. Safest car on the road.
one thing reviewers fail to mention is the reliability of toyota/lexus group which is on top for the last 3 years as far as I'm aware. You buy this car and im sure it's mechanics/electronics would function fine even after a decade
Exactly
Interesting because I have had one for a few weeks and there's constant electrical issues.
Those back windows are tiny. This whole car seems like the execution of form over function.
Alexander Zimmer it defo is, it's not a nice place to be, front or back.
Alexander Zimmer well said
And I don't like the form at all.
I think that on this occasion, that was Toyota's intention. The visibility, impractical boot and rear seat atmosphere are what suffer most. The cup holders in the doors are a nice touch, though.
Almost Robocop until they fired the intern. The rear side looks awful.
looks like a Honda civic hatchback from back.
the interior looks similar to an i8
Yes, and the side of the vehicle looks like the Lexus RX
And the name is similar to Honda HR-V
They copied Honda
BirnavanMUSIC - GarageBand including BMW interior
lovely machine. hybrid version is the one to go for, really nice to drive, although cvt gearbox can be noisy it's also extremely smooth. shame they didn't make the car that bit bigger though. I love the design, love to see them take the same approach with the styling of the next rav4.
We had this as a hire car and I loved the design inside and out. Also a very comfortable drive but like Mat says the wind noise is very noticeable (particularly on motorways). Rear view is very limited but then you do get a reversing camera.
You can't reverse on a motorway though and there's no rear windscreen wiper for some baffling reason.
I never understood why some people are obsessed with big door bin volumes and cup holders in abundance. They can't survive a short drive without drinking 2 liters of water or one liter of coffee?
And carbuywow and whatever review makes you feel this is one of the most important feature of a car. If you cant store at least 2 liters of water in the door bin, it fails the carwowbuy big bottle test. Do not buy the car then. You will die because of lack of side door bin space to store water and dehydration.
gyes99 more like "English reviewers obsession"
If you are not the kind of person who travels in your car then they don't matter at all...I go on long trips in my car so having cupholders is important as on a 5-6 hour drive you will need a drink
gyes99 Many people take long commutes? Lol
Yes, we all died of dehydration in the 'old days', not. For those who 'need' everything to be the biggest, go to the states. How many people drive for 4-5 hours without a break on a daily basis? Visibility is a bigger issue. The car looks good from the outside, not bad on the inside. Car choice isn't life or death. For those who have to complain about every miniscule inconvenience, I say, "Are you perfect?"
a car with only 2 cup holders is terrible, plus if you have kids it's a life saver
Drove this in Japan. Quite a fun car to drive. Good looking small SUV. The only down side is lack of practical space at the boot, blind spot at the rear and dark back seat.

This shit is fucking soulless, and UGLY!!!
MoparFam 300C Im actually thinking of getting one cause it has character. No hp but a lot of sex appeal. You can get more chicks with this than in a boring ferrari.
I actually want this car
Wait for the Logan electric, the cheapest electric car in Europe.
You need to have so much money in your account first.
The funny thing is, I don't actually need a car, but I do want the C-HR.
@@Iomar1975 Uhm...but that's not funny. So am still waiting for the actual joke.😂
@@lootokay6432 Indeed, that's not funny. The thing is, the joke hasn't arrived yet! Maybe after If and when I delivery of my brand new C-HR I'll think of one.
I love you for the "diamonds are forever" insert! :D
well done, as always. very precise, you seek for everyday details and not only for speed tests as a lot of others do
love your reviews! have been watching them back to back
Hey Matt, you forgot to mention: Diamonds on your shoes. LOL!
didn't realise Toyota made the batmobile in silver
John Kyon fbbj mbbbbbbbbnhjbbbbbbbnbbbbbbbbbb. 😁😁😁😁😁😳🤢🤢🤢🤢🤔👺🌺🌺🌸🌸🌸🌖🌞🌛🌛🌛☁️🌈🌈☁️🌈🌈🌨
Your reviews are wow! I see this ride in a whole new light now.
3:44 Toyota spent too much budget on exterior and cheaped out on the interior, those seats are already teard up on each corners lol
Yura Enjoji I noticed that aswell, how strange.
This car might've got quiet a lot of abuse. If it's a test drive car nobody would really take care of it. But yeah , that wasn't quiet supposed to happen no matter how rough you are with it.
Yura Enjoji I thought this car doesn't have the option of leather seats and navigation system
They cheaped out on the engine options, even worse.
The word you're after is, "Quite".
I think this would be a great car for a first time driver not expecting to carry much passengers. Especially the back windows which would be great if you only intend the car to be for you alone.
seriously now, your comments make me wonder...how can it be that no one likes the design of this car? This is the first time i see a car in its final stage to look so close to a futuristic concept. I mean everyone goes "wow" with the presentations of concept cars
And now that Toyota actually made a car look modern futuristic straight out of the original concept design, everyone on the internet bashes Toyota and the designers and the final appearance of this car... The car looks amazing! It looks like a Lexus concept
Seriously whats wrong with you people? Is this some kind of Europe vs Japan automobile
fanboyism? I really would like to know what car do you drive?
Do you like the design of cars like WV golf or Audi Q2?...Because no matter if its 2017 they still do look like a boxy tin bucket for shit gathering...
Toyota makes the most reliable cars. I wont compare their reliability with Peugeot nor other European brands at that price point. Yeah you can get the Peugeot 3008 for less money but you will spend double for all the problems that will occur after a few years...
Michael K it's human nature to bash something that popular. I agree VW golf is a boring looking car that no one complains about
I don't get it either. From the form factor and design perspective it seems to me a Nissan Juke rival and it seem to be alright in this.
People are in general just hateful morons that like to bash on everything that is not standard, boring and premium. The C-HR is an amazing car and can look amazing with the right trim.
Mitchell
Ok...i know that it is matter of taste
But that bashing is akward...since
Most people writing comments are young people perhaps under 35 years old who are supposed to be...less conservative and more modern...
Anyways, the car may have its flaws
But it is a modern and premium looking car.
Some things i dont like about it are the small back windows creating low light and poor visibility for the passengers and driver. But this is something Toyota can improve adding a sunroof perhaps on the next year model.
Both engines petrol and hybrid have mediocre fuel economy and feel abit weak.
Also for an SUV it is sitting kinda low. 15 cm off the ground is like a normal car. Not ideal for a crossover.
Those are things i saw from other reviewers. I wonder if those engines are strong enough to carry 4 -5 adults
At longer distances. With a loaded bootlit
My dad owns it. I've driven it quite some times now. We've got the hybrid version and I really dislike the engine revving when you're accelerating onto the highway. It's worse than on the Pruis (old and new model). I love the interior, except for the small windows in the back. It's also very very dark inside and it could definitely use some LED accent lights inside.
The engine is strong enough to carry 5 people, it only revs a lot more (the typical CVT sound).
The way you make your argument is just so much nicer to read, it's well written and not plain simple and stupid bashing. Thanks for that.
Isn't that how you open horizontal door handles in general? I mean you have to move your hand up but it works the same as any pull handle as I see it.
I really love the humoristic and sarcastic way of wowcar. Great reviews. great channel.
This guy gives the most honest review I've ever seen. Completely fair and balanced. Much appreciated.
review the hybrid too, please!
great review.. i have a few question.. if u had to choose between cheverolet trax LTZ Facelift 2017 and Toyota CHR which one u would choose?
Great review as always!!!
I like the design and Interior. Looks cool and futuristic. Don't know why people hate this ?!
european fanboys propably ;-)
It looks like somebody shitted on a civic type r
Not everyone like the taste of the tea, dont ya agree? :)
The same as not everyone do like orange, while some prefer apple
MN 9 As a piece of automotive art, it's great, but too many tiresome everyday practical flaws
looks like a weird bug, a praying mantis, inelegant. it's gonna look dated & tired in 2-3 years, at which time you're gonna have to replace it anyway, when all the freaking electronics goes haywire.
I love this guy. He is so fun to watch and funny.
have you ever done a review on the e90 bmw 320d? Link will be appreciated. love your work!!
Great review as always.. and Shirley Bassey classy:-)
I like the digital clock it has clear and easy to see simple as
It looks like Nissan Juke's cool brother
There doesn't appear to be a sunroof option, which is a pain because it would resolve the back seat light/space issue
hai mat betuween toyota chr and 2018 peugote 3008 wich is good car for small familly??thanks
7:40 - Yeah, no worries mate, no one saw you trying to hide behind that car. 😂😂😂😂
Who cares about small windows?
When was the last time a kid in the back seat looked out the window? These windows are going to diminish the glare on the tablet/mobile phone screen and kids will probably love them.
hawkesworth1712
My son loves the small windows, and true what u say, avoids the glare from the sun cause he constantly has his nose in an iPad!
hawkesworth1712 I was going to object, but sadly this has become all too common. I, myself fall victim to such tendencies.
Agree...I had full curtain behind tinted window on my MPV, probably I better buy cargo van
hawkesworth1712. It's about maximising visibility, so you don't squash kids while reversing or side swipe another car joining traffic or changing lane. These cars usually have 'stylish' mirrors as well, meaning too small. Camera might help, but you can't get away from the fact that the basic design is seriously flawed from a safety point of view. Nice looker though.
@@jeremylister89 . The car has a reversing camera, sensors front and back, blind spot warning, cross traffic alert and three mirrors. If that's not enough to avoid squashing a kid then the driver needs to hand their licence back.
funny how reverse camera and cruise control are standard but not sat nav pretty much proof Toyota are witholding certain features just to get you to spend more on an higher spec model. I mean those 2 standard options I mentioned are things buyers arent that bothered about but sat nav is a lot harder to go without.
I wish you would talk about the leg room COMFORT at the pedals for taller (6ft) drivers. Many of these cars lack space and you have your feet bent sideways on the pedals.
I definitely love the model and the car itself, it looks very sporty-ish and it looks great. I don’t know anything about vehicles engine etc, but I love how it looks and runs. Amazing☺️
5:30 "Just under 11 seconds" yeh cos that's fast😂😂
Really glad I read reviews first about this car before I thought about trading cars. Absolutely loved the exterior, however the interior made me rethink ..
Looks nice. The concept vibe is always nice.
Did they take the rear lights from the new Civic?
Mandez Siow look at Toyota Chr master car came out before Civic maybe civic copy Chr
I love CH-R design 😍
In the US the CH-R is hybrid only. Honestly, I see that as a plus. I've always wanted a Toyota HSD hybrid and just not in a Prius form factor. The CH-R I think is a wonderful option.
7:38 There is a guy behind the Avensis stalking you. LoL
Can someone explain to me why most in car "tablets" are still low res and awfully slow? I assume it's a cost thing, but just how little money do car manufacturers budget for this kind of thing? You can get considerably faster budget Android tablets for around 60 quid so it makes me wonder why they are not an option.
It's just a bullet point to sell the car - "yep, our car has it", nobody really cares how it works once a sucker drives the car out of the dealership.
Getting mine next week!
Took your time with this one Matt!
is there anyone better than this guy! Matt! you're real good fun mate!
So, i want to tell this for you guys that want to buy this car now or in the future.
I have this Toyota CHR, C-ult bitone. It have some things that i don't like, like this ones: you have to turn on the car so you can close your open windows (you can't do it with the key. It have Follow me home function, but not that good, when you reach home, you have to press the AUTO button bellow the steering wheel and then push the stick to high beam and then you'll get the 30 sec-50 sec till you get in house. But you won't get it if you unlock it in the night with the key or the smart entry.
Another thing that i don't like is the Lane keeping assist. It works, but sometimes it let you pass the lane and then take you back.
Also if you have a big phone... bad for you 😂
This should be all, i just got mine 3 days ago. (Sorry for some mistakes)
when's the Lexus version of this coming out ?
This car has all the mod cons and parks up for you as well as reverses and parks ... the wing mirrors fold in and it warns you when you swerve from lanes when tired.. it also is a quieter car to drive than a GLA with it's noisy diesel and outside noise from side mirrors... overall it's worth getting as a luxury car with safety and easy driving as well as long distance travel eco and automatic lights when in dark places as it dims the lights when on beam on motorways which is very convenient on long drives in country lanes and motorways... it also isn't as obnoxious as the other cars such as Mercedes, Audi and BMW
0:41 diamonds are forever XD best part of the video
that looks fantastic
This car is so beautiful! 😳💕
I took this car in hybrid version for a test, because i liked the look of it, but the hybrid version just dont drive right, and getting in the back is a problem plus the windows are far to small in the back too
saw one of these in the flesh the other day and they don't look too bad, certainly a bit of an eye catcher - but if there was ever a car that needed a better engine range, this is it!
the best looking car toyota ever made
N N no just no
Supra owners disagree
wait a minute .. did toyota just put together a beautiful car
jonat misk Yeah there's this pretty nice lexus coupe that just came out ;) but yeah I'll stick with fords lol
no it didn´t
it´s outright ugly
for the weird and quirky person that i am, yes, yes they did
jonat misk its ugly
jonat misk yeah it's called an mr2 mate
A cool thing is at night when you're approaching your car a beam of light from the bottom of the wing mirrors shines onto the road with "Toyota CH-R" I fangirled like mad when I saw it, I love hidden features.
Im confused between lexus is300 or toyota c-hr ? Which one shall i go far ? Cos i know both are amazing cars
"Does it come in black?"
Bruce Wayne.
Like minded. Exactly
This the car my mum just got, and its awesome. Im 13 yrs old and I luv this car :). Its electric and has heatings for the seats and at night it glows up and says toyota something something all in GOLD. I LOVE THIS CAR!!!
Also when u reverse, u have a camera at the back of the car so you can see if there are cars when you reverse
。Beyond Unit派 how good is it because my auntie might get one do you recommend it
in your reviews in the future can you start the car on camera so we can hear what kind of sound the engine makes
We need videos like this to show all of the bugs that need ironing out with the introduction of a new vehicle. The exterior is gorgeous! If they fix their interior issues, I think they have a really competitive car on their hands.
This car looks amazing.
Finally, Mat reviews a manual transmission vehicle. I was starting to think that he could only drive automatics and I was getting sick of the automatics too.
FINALLY FIRSTB TIME I AM EXITED ABOUT CAR .. EVEN TEARS COME OUT WATCHING ADDS .. LOVE THIS CAR , DEFINITELY MY NDREAM CAR !!! LOVE ALL BITS ABOUT IS PERFECT !!!
In my opinion, the ch-r is one of the best cars Toyota have done tbh...
I luv the back seats...it just makes everything all cosy and comfy.
I really like it
Front = RAV4
Corolla
Rear = Modified Civic hatchback
Very nice review, thanks a lot.
Hello, I really liked this videos.
If you can make a videos with toyota c-hr and this kia sportage or peugeot 3008 and showing all promenores
thank you so much
still more reliable than his Porsche
0:05 my mom has the «boring design of the past» car...😚
Man I wish the US got the manual transmission offered! I otherwise really love the looks and fun handling. All we get is the 2.0 and CVT
On some websites, I've heard you can only get a CVT gearbox with 4WD versions of the CH-R. Now, I might be wrong in saying this, but if I'm right, why could that be?
Just want to take a second to say your reviews are pretty awesome. You nail all the important bits, the video quality is good, you're entertaining, and you're consistent so we know what to expect. Keep up the good work man
The most claustrophobic interior I've ever seen.
Go and test drive one and you will be surprised at how big the interior really is!
Erik Nyberg Evoque and juke are similar.
Not really, everything is bigger in the Evoque and the Juke is just a Note/Micra on the inside. C-HR is worse on every level regarding interior space.
It is. The back seat and the small windows feel like prison.
🤣🤣🤣
4:15 Looks to me like there is opportunity for the fingers to get trapped in the door when the handle pushed by the palm of the hand as demonstrated.
The screen graphics look so old but so do most of them, is it really that hard to make a good looking interface
Toyota C-HR and Peugeot 3008 are so refreshing. VAG is still in 90ties
refreshing ??? LOL ... OVERDESIGN , unlesse you are a tenager.
I would rather say you are some old fashioned guy from 90ties missing his Nokia.
Only a kid (wth low instruction or from 3th world country) can use the lifespan of a mobile phone to measure time. Grow up !!!
So I hit it in the center. You really think Nokia 3210 is the greatest design achievement ever. By the way you shouldn't have any prejudices toward people based on their origins. You are very conservative in that respect too, and should really do something about that.
Lol That Toyota touch screen speed is from the 90ties dear, do not speak about VAG the number one car maker in the world. Work hard maybe one day you can afford a VAG car
Room inside is a let down. Hr-v is better in this respect.
we both have HRV And this one, i like the exterior of this, but love the interior of HRV
Is there a 2 door model of this? It would look awesome!
Mat, what are your top 5 favourite cars you've ever reviewed?
Can young children reach the rear handle to open the door?
Second Chance maybe if they jump 😂
I'm a child but I'm 6ft
Who cares.....The world doesn’t revolve around children! And young children shouldn’t even be touching cars so there’s the answer
who has children these days when the world population is approaching 8 billion and cities are congested to the extent that they are unlivable?. This sort of cars are for singles and couples ( sensible, environmentally friendly) with no kids.
saw one in my city and it looks great
Dear carwow, what is better to buy? C-HR or the new Camaro ZL1 with a10 transmission?
lol this guy is hilarious. thanks for your really helpful and hilarious review mate.
I've drove it 3 month ago (1,2 turbo AU)
I like it
are you still has this car and can you teel me abut it .
thanks
"It's got a bit of a punch, 0-100 kpm in just under 11 seconds" I'm sorry I didn't know it's 1932
Cool video. Nice review.
Nice pants! Could you tell us what sweater Mat is wearing along with the pants?
