New Toyota C-HR to keep radical concept’s look
Prototype for reborn crossover hits the road ahead of expected launch in late 2023
The next-generation Toyota C-HR is primed to take on the likes of the Kia Niro, moving upmarket by adding a plug-in hybrid powertrain to its ranks, and new images look to show the final production version.
Due on sale by 2024, the Mk2 C-HR will be a close sibling to the new Toyota Prius, underpinned by the same TNGA platform and offered with the same mix of parallel-hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains.
The latter will be a variation of the Prius’s PHEV set-up, pairing a 147bhp 2.0-litre four-cylinder petrol engine with a 158bhp electric motor on the front axle for a combined 221bhp. That's a 40bhp boost over the current (2.0-litre parallel-hybrid) C-HR.
Should the C-HR also borrow the Prius’s 13.6kWh battery (a likelihood to exploit economies of scale and cut costs), a 50-mile electric-only range may be within reach.
The parallel-hybrid powertrain will be an uprated variant of the 2.0-litre which features in the current C-HR, expected to boost economy above 50mpg and provide a small power uplift to 191bhp.
Alongside the technical reinvention, the C-HR will be restyled with a focus on the new-look 'Hammerhead' front-end design being rolled out across the line-up to give Toyota cars a common identity.

Daring new Toyota C-HR teased ahead of June 26 debut
The current Toyota C-HR crossover is already somewhat outlandish, but it appears its successor will be even more daring in appearance.
It won’t be long before we get to find out, with Toyota having confirmed that the second-generation model will be unveiled in exactly two weeks from now, on Monday, June 26.
The carmaker also released a darkened teaser image, showing off the new full-length taillight arrangement, flanking an illuminated C-HR logo in the centre.
Although we can’t make too much out at this stage, the rear teaser does seem fairly consistent with the Toyota C-HR Prologue concept car that was revealed in late 2022.

New Toyota C-HR revealed with edgy looks, advanced tech
When it came to redesigning the Toyota C-HR, gentle evolution was clearly never an option.
The first-generation of the compact crossover had no trouble standing out in a crowd, and the new one takes that edgy design philosophy even further, and then some.
“The original Toyota C-HR broke the mould of SUV design with its coupe-like lines. These are rendered even more sharply in the new model with its ‘super-coupe’ profile,” Toyota says.
Here, interlocking shapes and diamond-cut character lines aim to create a sense of the car being ready to surge forwards, while the ‘hammerhead’ front end design brings it into line with the company’s latest design language, also seen on the new Prius.

Toyota C-HR
The launch of the original Toyota C-HR was a landmark for both Toyota and the European C-SUV segment. It was a radical addition to a highly competitive market, striking a contrast with conventional SUV styling with a dramatic, sharp-edged design closer to the look of contemporary sports coupes.
Its success as an innovator helped transform public perception of Toyota in Europe, adding a strong emotional dimension to the brand. Customers responded strongly with more than half citing the car's styling as their principal reason for purchase. The Toyota C-HR went on to become Toyota's best-performing model for conquest sales.
The all-new, next generation Toyota C-HR takes the stand-out quality and status of its predecessor to a higher level with avantgarde design, advanced technologies and a range of electrified hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains with increased power, greater driveability and extended all-electric driving capabilities. It also reinforces Toyota's commitment to Europe: the new model was conceived in Europe with European customers firmly in mind, and it is being built exclusively in Europe, including assembly of its high-voltage battery units.
DESIGNED TO STAND OUT, NOT BLEND IN
The new Toyota C-HR's striking design is faithful to the styling displayed by the prologue model revealed in late 2022. Its distinctive exterior has the impact of "a concept car on the road".
The original Toyota C-HR broke the mould of SUV design with its coupe-like lines. These are rendered even more sharply in the new model with its "super-coupe" profile. The frontal treatment presents the new face for Toyota SUVs, seen also on the all-electric bZ4X and new Prius. True to the styling cues seen on the Toyota C-HR prologue, the look is keen and piercing, with a sense of the car being ready to surge forwards. The theme of interlocking shapes is prominent in the diamond-cut character lines along the side of the vehicle, underscoring the flush door handles - featured on a Toyota for the first time - and adding emphasis to the car's road presence.
