Question 1

Which engines does the new Toyota C-HR come with?

Accepted Answer

Two petrol-electric hybrids, both automatic. The 1.8 self-charging hybrid has 140 hp, while the 2.0 plug-in hybrid has 223 hp and a 14 kWh battery for around 40 miles of electric driving on the WLTP cycle.

Question 2

What are the Toyota C-HR trim levels?

Accepted Answer

The 1.8 hybrid steps up from Icon through Design and Excel to the sportier GR Sport. The plug-in hybrid starts at Design, so there is no Icon version of it.

Question 3

Is the Toyota C-HR plug-in hybrid worth it?

Accepted Answer

It suits a driver who can charge at home and keeps most daily trips within its electric range. For long runs without charging, the 1.8 self-charging hybrid is the simpler choice.

Question 4

How much road tax does a new Toyota C-HR pay?

Accepted Answer

The first year is set by the version's CO₂ emissions and is normally included in the on-the-road price. From the second year it pays the £200 standard rate, plus £440 a year in years 2 to 6 if its list price is over £40,000.

Question 5

Should I buy a new or a used Toyota C-HR?

Accepted Answer

A new C-HR brings the full factory warranty and the latest hybrid systems, but loses the most value in its first years. A used first-generation car costs far less and has a hybrid system with a strong reliability record.
