I actually LIKE this vehicle! I love what Toyota has done with the looks; functional upgrades; engine; dynamics. I would honestly consider buying one; when the 'time' is right. LOL 🤑
Yes, we never get the best versions of these cars here in the USA. I had thought the first version did well here? Still see them around. But we won't get this one, sadly.
Hm, actually looks better than I expected. Would choose the gold/ black color. The rear turning lights are kinda disappointing, yeah. I like the digital gauge for engine revs... white and red... like the Lexus LFA! 8D
I have no idea why anyone would design that rear windows so short, it looks claustrophobic even from outside. One of the main flaws of this excellent car imo.

A really informative review, thank you. Toyota is about volume sales to mass markets at reasonable prices. So it is interesting just how much you now get, admittedly with the top spec for this car. This asks the question of premium manufacturers what are they giving that is better and is it worth the money? It seems to me they have to rely increasingly on their badge and prestige rather than a measurable premium in utility/luxury/performance. On one measure of utility and usability, the UI/UX with proper buttons and no infotainment excess shows up many premium marques. The alternatives of mild hybrid and PHEV is smart. In my case I would want a PHEV because I have cheap home charging, but if you do not the mild hybrid should do. Would I want one? No. Could I live with one contentedly, certainly.
toyota seems to have taken inspiration from bmw, cause it completely ruined the design of the chr, while the previous gr sport version was so intresting
While its predecessor was ugliness pure, this one is, well, though still quite bonkers, eye-catching in a positive way. Generally, I don't like two-tone schemes too much. But here, I would opt for the a light paint with the rear full in black. It nicely accentuates its almost parallel C-pillars. Now, at least in my country, this scheme is bound to the highest grades while the car is already expensive in its basic package. Having recently driven the hybrids of the last two generations, I must say, this one is way better than the previous one. So, though I normally buy used, here I'd go for a new one.
Love it!! Love everything about it. The more curves and cut is look awesome. I have a 2019 and love mine. How can I get one here in the USA? I think we should have that option. It doesn’t make sense why they stopped selling them in the US just before they came out with this plug in hybrid. Hope I will have the option to get one here in the US
@@nickhickson8738 🤦♂️ by taking it in the first place you are supporting those industries, it’s not like they get given it to put in the vehicles, it’s business transactions.
Great review as always👍 Shouldn't ICE and (P)HEV stop running safety-wise whilst the hood is open even whilst the driver door is opened unless maintenance/inspection mode? What about rubber band effect, still present? What about the most complaining rear passenger compartment having too much wind whirling noise? Who cares about the passenger when the driver is having fun😂
❤hello bro😊 I want to know about Toyota chr GR sport update version 😊 Bro i have not seen any Toyota logo in this engine 😅 While Toyota company to sell thes car in USA that time don’t they give any Toyota logo in engine of this update version GR sport 😊 Please reply ❤😊😅
Toyota have for some inscrutable reason decided to not sell the new Prius in Sweden, so thereby they have lost me as a "since 1996 customer". 💔😥 Best reviewer-pair on the planet,, 🍻🍻😋👍👍
When I see such lovely sunny pictures I do envy your job. Looks like a considerable improvement over the previous model. However the rear seating still looks a gloomy and cramped place to be. Inevitable with this styling. We would prefer a Corolla Cross for practical reasons but sadly there is no sign of this coming to the UK.
My 1. gen C-HR 12 v battery died last winter after three years of use leaving me two times in need of help. Toyota should do the same as Tesla and have an intelligent automatic system using the drive battery to charge the 12 v, if the voltage gets too low.
Thanks for the feedback! Interesting, odes Tesla have that? Toyota told me with the bz4x (EV), they have a system that checks for the voltage when the car is stationary in the garage or smth (every x days) but it wont be activated on demand when the battery is empty - weird.
About the PHEV model... I wonder if the PHEV is a better option if you often do short drives, where the engine doesn't have enough time to warm up. If you'd have the PHEV, you could do those drives in pure EV mode, never even starting the petrol engine. But I don't know if that's true.
Thanks for the review we have ordered the 2.0l GR sport AWD in NZ, they sell about 35% cheaper than UK and Europe so great value here, it apprantly arrives in 6-8 weeks so can't wait, we decided against the plug in Hybrid which hasn't been released yet in NZ and may not be. They are now hitting us with RUC Road User Chargers on plug in's at 3.6 cents per k and for EV's 7.6 cents a k. Later next we are told it will be on all cars. No charge at present on Hybrids, we only buying because of the cost of fuel and don't believe in the Green agenda go talk to China first worlds biggest polluter. We ordered the same colour as the one you tested.
My god. Just when I thought toyota couldn't make the CHR any more ugly, they create this monstrosity. What the hell is that rear end black panel? Horrid looking car 😫 🤒 😷 🤧 🤢 🤮
What a ugly design. No proportions, no simplicity. Complex and over design….no. The interior is not welcoming…black plastics and not a spatious clean space…no
Made the mistake of taking one of these on test drive. Now I absolutely love it😂 close to buying one. Gorgeous car. Love the design inside and out. Very smooth and comfortable drive. Plenty of power and just a nice place to spend time..only complaint is how much Toyota have hiked prices. Very expensive.
I personally really like the look of the base CHR. But the GR-Sport trim makes it look really ugly. That "aggressive" design does not suit the car at all.
Maybe your girlfriend needs to see a doctor ? Her getting sick has definitely nothing to do with the car. She probably can't take driving down winding roads for some reason. Another reason could be that you had switched on the digital mirror and she was looking into it. I remember people saying they startet feeling kind of dizzy at the presentation when looking into it ! What about the charging speed of the Plug-in version ? I read it will be at 7.6 kwh, but why would it be faster than the new Prius which just has 3.3 kwh charging speed, allthough both share the exactly same battery and drive train ? I would welcome if Toyata came around in that regard, but it doesent really make sense making the Prius charge embarrassingly slow, while making the CH-R Plug in charge twice as fast !? By the way, charging speed really should be at least 11 kwh ! I really don't know what Toyota is thinking, making their PHEV's charge so extremely slow ! Don't they have any confidence in their batteries ? Who will plug in their Prius Plug-in at a local charger for 4 hours for just roughly 80 km of range or even just 60 regarding the CH-R plug-in !?
It has to do with the individual car. We are driving so many cars together, and in some cars it happens that passengers get sick, in some it doesnt. I m not sure what causes this, it might be the combination of height, weight and suspension setup. In the Volvo EX30 for example, it was totally fine even when we were driving winding roads. It must be a combination of different factors. She didnt look into the digital mirror btw just straight ahead
Hi, I confirm it has everything to do with the car, specifically with the suspension / seats / ride height combo. It happened to both me and my wife in a Tesla Model Y driving in the city. It was the worst feeling, we needed half of day to recover (similar to sea sick). P.S. I have also experienced this “boat” feeling in a Nissan Terrano 2 and Land Rover Discovery 5.
It seems they went the road of previous generation, they even stuffed it with sound insulation, like they did with latest Corolla refresh / model year.
Great review! I just sat in the new model and i really liked it. I drive a ID.3 now and it drives great but I hate the infotainment and build quality so im thinking of going back to ICE and this car(and this review) helpes a lot
It may have some buttons which are better than screen interaction but a row of them still makes them difficult to choose without glancing down at them. Hmmm.
The problem with the CHR is that you can't just outright design features from a much bigger (and often lower) car i.e the Camry or bigger SUVs and just squeeze it on the smaller and taller profiles of a compact SUV. But the design meta these days is just to make stuff look like the same just stretched and compressed to various sizes.
I actually like the design way more than the previous gen. My only issue is Toyotas obessession with making certain parts of the car black and the other grey. They did the same with the crown on the rear and I feel like it doesnt flow and makes the car too polarizing..
Great review Thomas, as always! In your opinion, would this suffice a family of 4 or one should opt for Corolla Cross? Also taking into consideration space/confort/price.
