The 2021 Toyota CHR is beautiful! But what about the blind spots?

- So from just taking a quick look at the new Toyota CHR! This vehicle screams blind spots! Almost like any other 5 door hatch. They usually have a very small and slanted rear window as well as small or smaller rear passenger side windows.
But in this review I reveal that it’s not actually too bad and that the funky look on the CHR does not affect how fun and easy this vehicle is to drive.

It's very easy to find a blind spot sign. First a red sign comes on the hashboard, then you see it on the mirrors the yellow sing . I may use it im here if you have any quation
I wasn't really into cars but one day while walking down the street i saw this car and i really fell in love with it. I really love the design of this car. Im working really hard to be able to afford it.
I love it also
Same here
Same here I fell in love with it. is so unique finger cross I can get this car before the year end.
Sameee, it's exactly what happened to me, I'm not into cars at all but I just saw this car once on the streets and I just fell in love
Same !!!!
I have this car I don't even notice the blind spots because you have sensors that tell you about cars in your blind spot. Technology is crazy!
If it wasn’t in the base level trim I’d be getting into like sooooo many accidents 😭
I'm waiting to pay off my school loan to get this car. A neighbor of mine has it and each time I pass by it, I keep saying, "Look at my future baby."
Biden is supposed to be discharging student loans...so you'll get this baby!
@@MonacoVirago I hope soon. But, by then, I should be done paying off my loan. I have less 10k to go now.
Same! Every time I see it on the road or anywhere I say yup that’s MY future car!
Update: ok my loans are close to done so I’m going to bite the bullet & get this car Jan 2022!
I think I am going to go for the XLE model. SUPER excited
Great video next time just please do more with the interior I really wanted to know more about the media display Apple Car Play Bluetooth keyless remote entry speakers dual climate control lane assist etc
@@Sponsorship4u2 congrats!!!!! My dream got a bit delayed. I might get it 2023. Either way I'm happy for us lol
I have had this car since March and all I can say is that I absolutely love the CHR. Very smooth ride and has a unique design. I would highly recommend it to anyone considering purchasing one.
I own a 2018 model CH-R and I never look behind in that direction when you have the side mirror which are carefully designed by Toyota to give a wider angle view than any other car. I also own a Honda Fit and Mercedes and the Toyota side mirrors are by far the best of the lot. Once you position the side mirrors to the right angle you will start to find them very useful.
Couldn’t agree more !
I’ve ordered mine and waiting delivery sept 2022
I own a driving school in the Netherlands and I use this vehicle for teaching people how to drive a manual car. The blindspots are an problem and makes it more difficult to see compared to a Corolla or Yaris. I teach my students to look earlier than normally done in other vehicles. They have to look better to prevent unnecessary collision or damage. The BSM and RCTA is a really good feature on this car and maybe also a option to consider. I have driven many different Toyota models the last year and spend many km’s and hours in it. I still think the CHR is the best one I ever had! Looking forward to the Corolla Cross
I’ve had my car for two weeks now and I’ve never had any issues with blind spots. My son and I absolutely LOVE this.
Yes! Blind spots are literally not an issue, especially when you compare how Toyota handled features like mirrors compared to other car makers. They knew the pillars would be an issue and made our rear view and side mirrors blind spot compatible, can’t see why anyone would complain
OMG i just Bought this car today, 2 hours ago really love it!!
Oh man juan. Your going to love it
I really like it, can't wait until tomorrow to finally drive it!! 😁😁
We’re getting ours tomorrow, here in the UK
Very good, you are going to like it!!
Congratulations! I got one yesterday! Blizzard white!
I’m very glad you posted this as the blind spots out the rear would be a deal breaker for me. I actually winced when I first saw it!!
THIS IS MY DREAM CAR IM JUST SAD I KNOW ILL NEVER BE ABLE TO OWN SOMETHING SO BEAUTIFUL . Working hard to buy me my car for college
Never say never
I’m sending you good vibes that you get your dream car
I love the CHR it’s so beautiful 😭
These vehicles are targeting entry level consumers. They always have promotional deals. $29,000 is as affordable as a new car can get. Thats close to zero major maintence for 10 years, when compared to a used vehicle that will constantly need maintence and downtime every other year
It’s me dream car too 😩. I also want it for college. I been wanting it since 2019
I have 2019...yes its worth to buy. Hope u can buy one day
I have one with the leather and the whole car is gorgeous to look at, a great drive
I love this car! I had the 2018 XLE silver, then I changed last year to 2020 Limited Edition White with black roof & Now changed again to the 2021 blue with black roof Limited Edited.😊
I love the blue with black
Can you change it to 2022 model
Got my 2021 XLE two weeks ago, black sand pearl color. I’m loving it and have no problems with blind spots yet.
I've had the 2021 chr for about a month now and i love it
I've got a 2018 C-HR and have gotten used to relying on the sensors and don't find the "blind spots" to be an issue at all. Just ordered the 2021 as a replacement. It's a pleasure to drive, love it.
I’ve just become the very happy owner of a 2021 CHR! I love driving it and have no issue with “blind spots”.
Woooooo
Another subscriber ;) Really like the underlying message! "You got mirrors, use them!"
It’s my very big dream to have this as my own personal car. Hopefully one day that dream will come true 😔
Of course it will. Stay positive
Same hereeeeee
i have one. People are always surprise about the comfort
Me too
I bought my 1st CH-R 2020 last year end of August and I'm so in love 😍 with it. I get so many compliments ☺
What color!?
@@ToyotaWorld White and the dash board got some blue color that make the inside so sophisticated 👌👌
I woke up to find this very car parked outside with a giant bow on it, lovely surprise present from my chap, completely in love with this car its just a little stunner and when you flick it into sport mode oh my days its fun ❣
Wow!! That’s amazing ! Enjoy it !!
I watched Jeff’s video on vehicle shortages and saw you discussing Canada’s issues. I am in Canada and subscribed because of the video you did with Jeff.
Thanks so much William
Everything perfect for me I bought last week but I really love it.its no problem about the blinds pot
I own a 2020 solid blue eclipse CHR XLE and I love it. They don't make solid colors for blue anymore it's all 2 toned now so I'm lucky
I have mine in blue and I love it I don’t notice any blind spots It’s so easy to drive
Wicked.
Been having the CHR Koba since 2017 - Blind spot is not an issue really. There's always the sensor. A very efficient car and i love it to bits.
*I have already registered this Car. In few days i will get this. And i will say it's the best car design for me.*
A blind spot is called the blind spot because no matter how you position your mirrors you still going to have a blind spot
The rear corner takes a little getting used to but it’s fine. Lovely car to drive.
I just bought the same car. I love it. I got mine at Tustin Toyota.
I have the dark gray Nightshade trim and I can’t stop looking at it when I park it 😍
Oooooo nice
I'm pretty sure my neighbors are sick of watching me stare at mine in the driveway for 5 minutes everytime i come home lol
I have a 2019 Limited CH-R and I have never had an issue with blind spots. I LOVE my CH-R. My only complaint is that the CH-R doesn’t come with an AWD option in North America. Major oversight for Toyota.
@@purneshkumar750 are there no CH-Rs where you live? Depending where you live the transport of my car may not be worth the cost.
@@purneshkumar750 wow that sucks. They are great cars. I live in Canada so shipping my car to India would be very expensive. I know other countries in Europe and Asia also have CH-Rs. You may want to try importing from someone closer. Good luck. 😊
Thank You for the review.
Love the video. Perfection explanation. I have one now 2019 chr. And yes I love it. What u explain is dead on. Than you for supporting the chr. You got yourself an subscriber. Keep doing what your doing. Good job! 👍
Thank you so much for kid words. Love
Love CHR
My wife just got the 2021 Magnetic Gray Metallic XLE We love it!
Wicked
Hey,love your video first timer here,and you are right it all depends on your side mirrors I bought the red chr limited . suits me perfectly because I"m petite . I loooove this car!!!!!
Thanks!
We got one two days ago love it
As a CHR owner, I can 100% tell you I have no problem with blind spots in this vehicle as long as you can turn your head and look over your shoulder, moreover, the higher specs comes with blind spot assist via the side mirrors. I have seen some videos on CZcams saying CHR has no power, doing test drives on this beautiful car like a 90 years old, bring it on to me and I'll show you the full potential on how this beautiful car should be driven, I've had an Audi, BMW, Mercedes all gave up on me on the motorway, sport mode on this thing is just awesome, but I wish Toyota can blow the CHR up with a little bit of height in the future to make it really look like an SUV.😉
Even the quickest chr 0-60 is 10.5 seconds, horribly slow by todays standards. I’m sure this lemon will be dropped in the next year or so - it just serves no purpose, is difficult to see out of, isn’t practical and is just dull to drive.
I bought my chr brand new in 2019 and will admit i am disappointed about the lack of power but if you know how to drive then its still fun. Although if it came in a manual then i would be in love!! Overall though im happy with it, its just me so the size doesnt bother me, I disagree with the blindspot complaints, i dont have any trouble seeing out and around me, although i know how to move and look and use my mirrors lol.
@@rockytopchick8657 With all due respect, everybody with different tastes, I love the CHR, this is my second one, I had the 2018, now 2020, both were brand new, coming from a manual car, never driven an automatic car before, CHR is my first automatic car, and I love it. Adequate power is there for me, this is not bugatti or lamborghini. The only thing I don't like about the CHR is the height, which I wish Toyota can address in the future.
@@anthonytayo what do you mean by the height?
@Mustapha N The measurement of the vehicle from base to top, hope that's answered your question?
Nice review. I do agree regarding the blindpots. They are absolutely not a problem anymore. Thanks to the technology in the side mirrors. 👌👌❤️❤️ I looove my C-HR 2020 Launch Edition 😍😍
Hey Ayman! Thanks for comment! Drive safe!
@@ToyotaWorld Most welcome! 😊 Will do! Best regards from Stockholm, Sweden 🇸🇪
Cool!
I love mine! Set your mirrors right there's no problem.
We got the nightshade model, love it.
Nightshade is amazing
I have this and I love it!!
I gifted this baby to myself for my bday last month 2021 Toyota C-HR LE/XLE/LIMITED/NIGHTSHADE and I’m in love
You don’t need blind spot monitor! Just make sure you position your side mirrors correctly. Move the side mirrors out far enough so that your car doesn’t take up half of the mirror.
It annoys me so much when I look at the car ahead of me and I see straight into the driver's eyes through their side-view mirror. Sorry, buddy, that mirror is not doing you any good set up that way! So many people don't know the correct way to set up all their mirrors.
Amazing car very cool with many up to date features that are very useful and impressive
Sup Matteo!!!
I have this car, only time it's an issue is when you're looking towards the opposite side rear passenger window, if a small car is on the right and very close to you, you literally can't see it, but that's what the mirrors are for, never had an issue not seeing someone though the mirrors, you just have be mindful, once you get used to it it's not an issue at all
My Toyota Prius has similar blind spot issue.
There’s a safety features that will tell you when is the time to change the lane like lights will on at the side mirror. This car is pretty amazing for me!
I bought a 2020 XLE C-HR last September and truly love it. I don’t notice blind spots because of the blind spot monitoring system, which is the first time I have had that on a car. I have the silver with the black roof and love the 2 tone look. Fun to drive too, imo. Thanks for the review! Love Toyota!
Amazing little Cars! Thx
Thank you for this video.👍
The blindspot monitoring system is not something I’d rely on. I don’t think they provide enough warning … unless the distance they detect a vehicle can be adjusted. Granted, I agree about mirrors. They need to be adjusted depending on the type of roads you’re driving on. Highway vs. city driving. One of my biggest disappointments is that Toyota never offered factory installed highway mirrors or the convex mirrors that some other manufacturers have provided on their vehicles. Although I did see a few Toyotas that had them. I guess they’re the ones that didn’t have Blindspot monitoring in some cases. Every Toyota that I’ve owned I’ve added my own convex mirror. Doesn’t look the best, but they do the job.
Love the color. I had issues w the blind spots only when I have a passenger. If they move their chair back it can completely block the whole window on that side when I’m trying to check to switch lanes. I have the 2020 version w no blind spot monitoring system and unfortunately Toyota said they can’t add it. I did purchase some BSM mirrors to attach on the outer corners of the side mirrors and they’ve definitely helped a lot though.
Good to hear! Drive safe (thumbs up)
Good luck on 10k
I bought my chr brand new in 2019. As soon as i pulled onto the lot and saw it i was in love!! Its the perfect size bc its just me, it can fit into tighter places than my past cars. Im 6ft tall and its still comfortable to me. I was kind of shocked when i sat in it bc i thought id feel squished. I wish it came in a manual and had a little more power but i still love it!! My main complaint is i think mine came with an invisibility setting that i cant turn off bc even though mine is the crazy bright blue flame color, i have more people pull out in front of me or cut me off than any vehicle i have ever owned. It just puzzles me how the bright blue is missed by some people lol So far its one of my favorite cars ive ever owned ❤️ id just like to add that i dont have any issues with blindspots. My husband and says its too girly so im the only one who drives it so my mirrors and seat stay the same so blindspots arent a problem for me.
Thanks amazing!
I do own one I love it people do comment about the blind spot but I do use my side mirrors.
Thx for
Comment:)
I got the GR sport version in the UK, just love it 😊
We’ve had eight Peugeots, now we just bought a Toyota C-HR Hybrid, on Friday we get it.
My birthday is in December, and I'm looking Forward to gifting myself with this car😍
My dream car indeed
Thanks 4 sharing Brotha
Yes sir
I love love love the CH-R Limited....!!
So do I!
Fantastic review. As an owner of a chr the past 2 years, blind spots never an issue. First few days maybe but over time you don't notice. Good job.
You are right. It’s something that goes away within a matter of days. Thanks for comment.
@@ToyotaWorld I just subscribed Marcello. Where are u located?
Cool! I’m at Maple Toyota my friend
@@ToyotaWorld Ah ok.. Know it well.
@@moeanthony9308 cool. Let me know any content you might want me to cover. Thanks
Yes I have experience blind spot but on the right side.
I have a 2019 if you are short you dont see that much the blind spots but if your tall my friend was also complaining about the blind spot since hes 6' feet tall and Im only 5'3
Great review, I sub😌
Thank you my friend! More to come
So the base LE doesn't come with blind spot monitoring, nor can you add it on later? With passengers in the back and front seats it could be very hard to change lanes on a fast highway safely I'd imagine, especially at night.
Blind spot mirrors available at any auto parts store for less than $5 easily remedy any blind spot issues on *ANY* vehicle, not to mention the blind spot monitoring the car offers anyway. 🤷♂️
many people are used to direct vision of blind spot areas. other ways help manage a large blindspot.
I’ve Owen this car for over a year. Best economic car I have ever owned and the blind spots have never been an issue. Also drive an Audi R8 and it has so many more blind spots. So I’m good. 😉
Wanted a CHR, but actually bought a KIA Niro hybrid due to the claustrofobic rear seat of the CHR. Both are great to drive, but for me the Niro is the better choice.
I have the CHR 2019 LE, and I don’t have much problems on blind spots, even with my ceramic tints being 35 Front, 20 Back (Subcompact SUV. Legal.). To eliminate blind spots, I’m a tall guy, so I push my seat back to the max, adjust my rear view mirror to match my back window and push the side mirrors to the point where I don’t see side of my car. I’m one to indicate while changing lanes and keeping my head on a swivel. Other than that, it’s a great ride to cruise in. Also, I barely use the rear view camera.
My 2019 Limited CHR is like show room condition and I actually have the title. God is so good.
My dream car/crossover; will have one in 2022
It’s amazing how many comments on here say that the CHR is their dream vehicle! This is exciting to hear how loved these vehicles are! Fantastic! They truly are great everyone!
I have one love it. Drives great quiet. I dont care about the blind spots.
I have a chr , love this car
Isn’t it so cool!?
I am going to buy this car may the heavens mark this day
See me if I’m Ontario :)!
The blind spots would not be a problem if they allowed you to turn on the rear view camera, any time you wanted.
Another reason why this car came in second, to the car I bought, small sidewalls increase the roughness of the ride.
I really wanna get a CH-R in the future
My 2018 C-HR XLE has only one issue - you have to go through the stupid steering wheel menu to change from "Normal" to "Sport" or "Eco" and it does not stay there after turning the car off. I installed an Arduino with a CANBUS hat, programmed it and tied it to the main computer and installed a single pole double throw switch. Now I do NOT have to fark with the menu again. Stays in Sport mode even after the car is off. :) Thanks to the C-HR forum for the link and instructions.
I just bought a 2021 XLE, I would like to install the after market fog lights but need to know if there are existing wire harnesses that are plug and play already installed as I don't want to have to splice into the wiring harness if you could answer that question. thanks and so far I like the suv/car....
I Love Toyota C-HR
I live in a small British city and I've not had a problem with blind spots.
The orange edition is the limited model and the most expensive in the UK.
45,500 dollars US.
63 to 546!! Well done my friend! Greetings from Nashville!
Thx !
I saw that style and color...It's really very attractive color I almost buy it but I changed my mind...
It reminded me of RSC concept from 2003 that car is a beast and a rally material sadly it never made it to production
I enjoyed your video. I’m a new subscriber. I bought a 2020 CH-R Limited in September 2020. I love it! I wish it had remote start though. Blind spot takes some getting used to, but you just have to be aware and make sure you look around. I hope in the future that Toyota will add. Ore features to this car because I think I would purchase one again. Like I said, add remote start, maybe a sunroof, and have the passenger seat powered as well. Thanks for the video!
I think ChR is evolving as a vehicle. And that there is still much more to come from it. For example, AWD, Hybrid etc.
I planning to get this 2020 limited with 3k miles on it, what do you think about the car now?? How much did you pay? They asking me 24k now
Come to Canada ! Lol
Lol for what😆
@@tea.tyrion.spooker i bought my car brand new with only like 11 miles on it and I got it for 25,870.00
I have CH-R Launch Edition so I don't find blind spots difficult for me because it has literally everything you need.
What’s a launch edition?
@@ToyotaWorld Looks like it may be the first year model that was a hybrid - at least in a Google search?
What color is that?
Bronze oxide
I like chr because its Manual and Automatic transmission which is good.
Beautiful, lindo
Those alloys wheels are fitted standard to the base trim in the uk.
If you can't see driving this ch-R you don't need to drive. I have one and love it. Sporty good gas mileage fun to drive.
Congrats on 511
Thank you!
You remind of the Drew and Jonathan Scott. (the twins on the TLC network who flip houses)
Lol. Cool
@@ToyotaWorld Hey thats a compliment from me ! I dont see many CHRs out on the road, but I I currently drive a 2010 Corolla. Good car, but with 4 boys, I cant get them all in the car!
I love this car
Me too!!
That’s why it has side mirror for that right.but when t comes to safety features I think it’s very much fine aside from the interior and exterior design like it.Hope there’s a diesel of these chr v
I and most people are safety ( how it will work ) and gas mileage. Please include in every reviews.
Im just bought this vehicle, like european style , like it ..
