If you ever wanted an in-depth look at the all-new Toyota C-HR, you’ve come to the right place as the company has released some 100 or more images of its compact crossover, which first made its global debut back in March this year.
Built on the modular Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA), the second vehicle to be built on the platform after the fourth-generation Prius, the C-HR measures 4,360 mm long, 1,795 mm wide, 1,555 mm tall and has a wheelbase spanning 2,640 mm.
Depending on the market it will be sold in, there will be three powertrain packages available for the C-HR, including a hybrid option. The first is the 8NR-FTS 1.2 litre turbo four-cylinder (from the facelifted Auris), delivering 115 PS and 185Nm of torque through either a six-speed Intelligent Manual Transmission or a CVT, the latter with a choice of two- or four-wheel drive.
The second is a 2.0 litre CVT variant, which is likely fitted with the same 2.0 litre Dual VVT-i four-cylinder engine as the Corolla Altis with 147 PS and 187 Nm. Finally, there’s the C-HR’s hybrid powertrain, consisting of a 1.8 litre VVT-i Atkinson cycle four-cylinder engine and a pair of electric motors, the same combo found on the new Prius.
From a design standpoint, the “Coupe-High Rider” is certainly unlike any previous Toyota, with plenty of diamond architectural cues seen throughout its design. As the company plainly puts it, “the C-HR’s combination of facetted gemstone-like shapes with fluid surfaces and elegantly integrated detailing create a delicate balance of precision and sensuality.”
Up front, you’ll find the latest interpretation of Toyota’s Under Priority and Keen Look design identity, featuring a slim upper grille that meet up with the car’s slender headlamp clusters before extending into a pair of character lines that swoop down the sides, ending at the rear taillights.
At the rear, the shapely taillights encroach into the top-hinged tailgate, accompanied by more angular lines. When viewed from the sides, the C-HR’s coupe-like styling becomes even more apparent, with flared wheel arches to enhance the visual impact.
Similarly, the C-HR’s cabin mirrors the exterior’s fresh design, with a driver-centric cockpit, framed by blue accents for the hybrid variant. The main standout item here is the 8-inch colour touchscreen sticking out of the centre stack, providing access to the car’s infotainment system. The car can be equipped with a nine-speaker, 576 watt JBL premium audio system for a better aural experience.
According to Toyota, there are three main surface finishes in play here – leather-like for all background surfaces, a smooth Nappa grain for all touching surfaces and technical grain for all functional elements such as switchgear. Also available are three colour schemes – dark grey, black/blue and black/brown.
In terms of safety and driver assist features, the C-HR comes with Toyota Safety Sense as standard for certain markets. The system includes a Pre-Collision System (including Pedestrian Recognition), Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert, Automatic High Beam and Road Sign Assist. Other additional systems include a Blind Spot Monitor, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and an Intelligent Parking Assist System.
Production of the C-HR has already begun at Toyota Motor Manufacturing Turkey (TMMT) in Sakarya, Turkey, where it will be exported to European markets. This will be followed by markets outside Europe, which include the United States, Canada, Taiwan, Mauritius and South Africa.
Interested? Well, we haven’t gotten any information as to when UMW Toyota Motor plans to bring in the C-HR to the Malaysian market, but it is surely an important product in light of the growing SUV segment. Let us know what you think of the C-HR in the comments below.

Looking to sell your car? Sell it with Carro.
Great looking car! but the back hmm….. got a taste of civic rear lights.
Wont be available here in Msia. Too high end for our third world standard set by T
You are right.
Low class people think that having sunroofs run the risk of water leakage and it is very hot and bright having sunroofs.
And low class people tell you that fabric seats are better, they are warmer in cold weather, and cooler under hot sun.
Sounds familiar?
So where is Traffic Jam Assist?
Even Golf got this, why not this jepunis overlord CHR?
If it goes to Taiwan, it will go to Thailand and comes to Malaysia… just wait-lah :)
Hi end?? haha
Which part of Toyota ever been Hi end,my friend!!
Toyota and other Japs makes can only impress you by it”s LOOK!! Never bother about safety,insulation, engine performance, handling, …..etcs!
Anyway, This is just another Toyota”s crap!!
High End for Toyo is not CHR or whatever but Lexus. Big puzzle, since when toyo or Sirion are high end? LOL
Nuff said.. Desirable Toyota
Front – copy P1 Emas, back copy civic

In other words, crab pincers rear lights.
The rear lamps actually copied over from Civic Type R FK2R.

What is the duty tax rate?
Are they overcharging us?
the prices are all the same.
all cars in malaysia are subjected to minimum 75% of excise duties.
cars imported from ASEAN countries enjoy AFTA tariff – no tax applies. but cars imported from outside ASEAN like europe, japan or USA are subjected to CBU import tax. cars like lexus LX570 has 193% or taxes in it.
example
– car price ex factory – rm140K
– import tax, customs duty = 193% = 270K
– sub total 410k
– insurance, freight, handling charges, storage + profit margin + hidden discounts = 200k
there you go = 610k
tax the rich. It is ok.
wake up!!!…
your dream is not going to happen in your life time.
Why ah? because of National Automotive Policy lo. To potek our precious national car.
The only way(hopefully) for lower car prices is regime change.But even if opposition wins,the rm10Billion in car taxes annually is too difficult for any ruling gomen to part.
CurrENTLY ,Langkawi prices for us here is a MYTH.
HIGH CAR PRICES will be the norm here in Bolehland for years to come.
Since Toyota product is not good to you but WHY U keep focusing in TOYOTA car pricing? Why not Honda or Nissan? Are u a salesman which just want to condem Toyota so others will buy your brand?
nice outlook, nice rims, nice engine..
futuristic interior..
if UMV bring in Msia, set the selling price is crucial
much better designed than my HRV…expecting it to be pricier than HRV..they were late to the SUV compact party, but its certainly worth the wait..welcome to the club Toyota!
This will not do for a family car…the rear windows are too high up and u will have difficulty looking out from the rear seat. Furthermore the rear seats don’t fold down flat so the lip will get in the way for carrying bulky items and somehow the centre screen is positioned too high up that it will block short drivers from looking forward in some positions.
totally agree. those seating at the back will feel claustrophobic with the high winder and super thick c-pillar. doubt you can see outside the car at all. the rear hatch lip also open quite high making loading a task.
this is basically a looker and target at young single or couples.
Saw headlines Toyota, then scroll down saw tail lights. looks exactly like honda civic 9th generation. If they changed that logo and put a H in the middle i would believe its a honda car
Toyota is copying Honda design elements, but thats okay cuz we dun persoal jepunis overlords, and just shaddup & buy like zombies
wrong bro. CHR concept car first appeared in 2014. long before civic FC – which looks like crab hand btw. it is honda actually which copied toyota.
Dugong vios morph into flowerhorn CHR
i have a C-HR
i have a HR-V
Unghh!!!
i have a C-HR-V
I have an apple, I have a pen…ugh…applepen
TakNak Syok sendiri….
d hrv is more practical
But the toyota is more desirable
Consider a used Tucson. Great value for money
Can average adults seat comfortable in the rear seat
I like.
UMWT should assemble the hybrid version here to take advantage of the EEV incentive. This would reverse the company’s fortune and recapture lost market share.
In the looks department, this C-HR beats the H-RV hands down. If/when this crossover were to come to M’sia competing with H-RV, M’sian will have more choices compare with only CX-3 & H-RV currently.
C-HR will triumph if the price is correct. About the same price with H-RV “+” or “-” but not to much, plus with the right features offered, H-RV sale will suffer. But if UMW is greedy, and place the price higher or about the same with CX3, I would say Honda can lean back, lou and watch C-HR small sale.
Then why not you look at the quality of Honda build HR-V?if price determines all about cars without quality then why but Japanese cars? Just buy P1 or P2…. if u don’t know much about cars then shut up
Why so many hate for the car?
