- The all new Toyota C-HR is promoted as a concept car for the road by Toyota. The second generation Toyota C-HR as quite an act to follow after the success of the first generation car. The lastest Toyota C-HR will come as a 1.8 or 2.0 Hybrid, with a Plug-in Hybrid coming in 2024.
It has edgy looks, some innovative technology and Toyota's fifth generation hybrid drivetrain. I put it to the test by exploring Ibiza.

We have a first gen C-HR as second car, it's 7 years old and has proven to be reliable, polyvalent and fun to drive, it's the car we've kept the longest too. So for the first time we'll buy a gen 2 of a car we owned. This new version improved what needed to be (tech) while still staying true to the original C-HR. Great job Toyota Europe (Belgium) who developed the car. Can't wait to get it !
I just drove a 1.8 hybrid today. I hate a CVT but I have to say I was quite impressed, it didn't sound as noisy as this sounds in the video
Our new 2024 C-HR arrives next week. We drove to the Toyota dealer for a test drive of the 2024 model in our Mk 1 C-HR and were amazed how Toyota have taken something we love and made it even better !
This new model is amazingly updated. I used to compare our current one to an Airbus in terms of its onboard computer capabilities and smart-ness. The new one is like flying the USS Enterprise ! Thanks for the review.
A great video Sir Pete! It definitely catches the eye.
FINALLY someone who takes it on some twistiys, I was searching desperately for a test like this!!! thanks so much!
No problem!!
Good comprehensive review and in a stunning location.
Many thanks!
Great video of an interesting update
Glad you enjoyed it
Thanks for that wonderful ride, I was mesmerized with the beautiful scenes of Evita and of course that winding road up on that mountain. I hope I can visit that place too driving that new Toyota C-HR. 😊
Glad you enjoyed it 👍
Gorgeous car, inside and out 👌
Great review, thanks, for anyone wondering absolutely the reference to the 1.6 'Ford Cortia tribute' CHR mentioned, there are none available only 1.8 or 2.0 😅
Another great review Pete, and I like that you have a good understanding of the e-cvt drivetrain. I have run a 2 litre C-HR here in Spain for nearly 4 years and averaged 5.3l/100km … efficient, smooth and utterly reliable. It is being replaced in January with the 2 litre AWD GR Sport which is a first for C-HR so should be even more sure footed. The PHEV cannot be combined with AWD currently.
Thanks for the info!
Love these - getting a dozen of these to replace the existing model for my staff on lease contracts.
👍
Hello my friend. I do like how you categorise the vehicles that the cars are up against, it puts it much easier to understand. 👍👍👍🇬🇧
Thanks chap 👍
Cool video, cool car. Toyota's are excellent cars so I have no doubt this one will be good. Great place to film, it me feel better just seeing a bit of sun.
Thanks 👍
I have a GR at the moment and love it, especially cruising on the autoroutes here in France. Have the new GR 2ltr ordered and looking forward to forward to collecting it in January.
Mahalo for actually explaining what difficulties can arise from using those mirror/rearview cams. I GET it now, cheers! That said, several friends of mine own the 1st-gen of this model, and they like them very much. I've ridden in one of these, too. At the turtle-like speeds the traffic flows here, it's quiet and comfy in the back for this 175cm OAP, lol! Aloha!
Glad to help!
When I went to wales on a holiday a couple of years ago, our old Peugeot 3008 finally broke down on the road and it had to be scrapped, more than a couple hundred miles from home. My first exposure to this car was sitting in the cramped back seat while we drove the 6 hours back to London, not the best introduction I'll admit 😂but whenever I sat in the front I enjoyed it!
It was a *5008 sorry
Pete, A very good review. I road tested the GR Sport last weekend and was suitably impressed coming from a Honda HRV car. I like the GR Sport but do like leather interior (albeit vegan), so I had to order the Premiere edition. Things I like is the cabin, a very nice place to be. I the infotainment system is such an improvement on previous versions. The Head up display that kinda sits on the bonnet just letting you know what you’re up to. Bearing in mind I wanted a car that my wife will easily get accustomed to from her Yaris. The big question that Toyota answered for me was to create a car that has broken this small SUV market mould which all the other Manufactures seem to be sticking to like that is the template all small SUV’s should be. I have been looking for a while now for somebody to offer something that is moving on from the current and I think/hope I have found it, only time will tell.
Great review.👏👏 Amazing car and I looove the new design 😍🤩 I am a proud owner of the C-HR Orange Edition. It is such fun and wonderful car. Looking forward to the release of the new generation and test drivning. 🤩🤩 One of the features I very much enjoy in the C-HR is the tilt of the middle screen slitely to the left towards the driver. Very nice touch, offers more comfort when drivning and not featured on other car brands. Anyways, I think I will choose the 2.0 L Plug-in Hybrid. Thanks again for a great review.
Thanks 🙏🏻
Good looking & sensible car. The 2.0 would be my pick with enough power to overtake safely. Thanks Pete! Cheers, Tom.
You and me both!
Beautiful car love it
Glad you like it!
Hi another good video but your comments about the mirror are “Heads Toyota lose, tails they don’t win” The mirror is an extra on the Excel which comes as part of a package with Heads up. If Toyota did not give the option, some would say “We can’t see out the mirror when there is a middle passenger and because there is not a rear screen wiper, the camera mirror is very handy when the car is wet after being parked in the rain or the window is misted or has a covering of frost. The fact that it has the option of changing to a normal mirror makes it a well thought out option
An interesting point made by another contributor is the conflict of Vario-focal glasses and the camera?
I am selling my I Pace after 5 very happy years to buy the Plug in C-HR so I am going through feelings of excitement and aprehension
I wish one of these reviews would also show what the boot looks like +with the rear seats folded down.
It's still have the same transmission?
The original took a lot of cues from the Lexus LF-SA concept car and this one has a Lexus-like front end. Good looking car.
Really enjoyed your review … I have ordered the 2.0 litre GL Sport model in Ebony and Silver Rush … this model is not being imported in Aotearoa in the Ebony and Sulphur version… I’m a baby boomer who loves to push the pedal … would have liked the plug in hybrid based on your explaining that you get a quieter ride … but the plug in models are not being imported in Aotearoa because of the road user chargers for plug in hybrid vehicles …
Good choice!
There quite popular here in Australia 🇦🇺 so the new shape will sell here big time 👍 me not keen on the two tone I think it would look better just in on colour 😊
I like the 2 tone paint! Pretty car! My wife has 72 plate CHR and loves it!
Boot is a bit too small, rear room is very poor for adults and the CVT gearbox drones in current car. But it drives really well and is well equipped!
Hope my wife doesn’t see this video, otherwise I’m in trouble!
👍
Very good point about the mirror, people will need to change from distance focus to a display at arm's length. Fine if you're under 40-45 , it is easy to accommodate, not so great for those of us who are older, especially 60+. Varifocals won't cut it either cos you'll be looking thr' distance part of your gls. I imagine Toyota engineers who designed this are in thier 20s and 30s 😂.
Should suit a certain generation of drivers! Better options out there
Launching it in Ibiza, I’m slightly disappointed it doesn’t run on coke 🤣~ great overview of a sure contender in that sector.
😂😂😂
Great video Pete as always. I do like your polo shirt 👍
Thanks 👍
It’s from Grand Prix Originals…
www.grandprix-originals.com/en/
Great review as always but the real stumbling block is the price. Did i hear you right 40K plus for the one you reviewed & that's not even the plug in or GR version. Definitely out of reach for your average Joe. Think i'd want something that makes more of a statement for that money. A second hand Mini clubman JCW is for me personally looking a very attractive proposition. Keep up the great content. Can we have some cameo appearances from the pups too!
They will be on the channel very soon I promise 😜👍
@@PetrolPedthanks Pete , the wife will only watch you when the pups are on ( her favourite breed ) lol , she doesn't share my passion for all things automotive 😂
After driving an fully Ev car and a plug in hybrid,we picked up our self charging CHR up today, same as in the video yeah. No ev or plug in for us, dirty in when rains and messy in the boot.
what country is the "B" on the number plate?
Belgium 🇧🇪
Since the first Toyota C-HR was introduced, nearly all manufacturers have copied the styling to the point where I struggle to tell most small SUVs apart.
But for £35-40K, I would choose a Citroen C4e with the new 154 hp electric motor and 260 mile claimed range as it is roomer inside and, reportedly, very comfortable.
As if you don't hear the engine of other cars when you press the accelerator hard....
I have been driving a 2012 Prius since 11 1/2 years !
The engine noise when accelerating was never an issue at all !
Not a single problem in 11 1/2 years by the way !
Try yo beat that !
Colour spec is similar to the Bugatti Chiron super sport I just saw on Goodwood post !! A little cheaper though …. have a great weekend all🍻🇨🇦👍🏻
Thanks, you too!
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.
Not a fan of that twi time Colour look especially at rear . An informative video nonetheless well done 👍👍👍
Thanks 👍
You are the first reviewer to point out the fact that the engine noise bother only those who don’t understand how this system works 👍. The system is just brilliant and one of the main reasons I’m driving a C-HR
Thanks for watching!
You are my height so you are my go to guy for size reviews!
👊
Hi Pete, I’d like to give you an opinion from the perspective of a retired 68 year old petrol head 😱😂 (which is me btw 😉)
If you de-badged the last 15 or so EV/HEV vehicles on the channel I’d be very surprised if anyone could identify them all 🤔
I’d probably guess the Toyota in the vid was a Honda Civic 🤷🏼
The only one I’ve been mildly interested in is the Volvo EX30 recently shown on Jonny Smith’s channel.
They are all tediously boring (imho)
Please can we have more Ruby Roadster and Mini soft top rebuild content 😎
Yes, I am a miserable old fart, but I still love petrol powered affordable cars 😎
P.S. I drive an R58 Coupé JCW and bloody love it 🥰
Cheers, Mick 👍
Just checking the prices and the base starts at £35k so add probably £5k for the plugin in hybrid. You can buy a base model of a Peugeot 2008 for £19k. Apart from reliability I don’t see £15k difference in quality with the Toyota. Way overpriced for me.
I always thought the first one was a bold design that I liked a lot. The CVT gearbox has always put me off as it would drive me nuts that it sounds like it is looking for a gear. On the new one I do like the twin paint like the sporty 206 and 306, the speed of the electric tailgate and the rear view camera system that I got accustomed to in about 5 mins in the Defender. I would need to see the new one in real life to see if I continue to like it but that is not to say your review was lacking and that was a very nice setting that you had to play with it in.
Certainly enjoying some warm sunshine here in Florida 😎 Not looking forward to the U.K. weather when we go home next week…
The car certainly sports some bold styling, but I’m not convinced by the two tone colour scheme… Certainly not for me.
Looking at some of the comments on here I think that some folk perhaps misunderstand the market that this car will be primarily aimed at - not for petrolheads. My in laws would love it!
Hi Ped
Yet another interesting take on a new car. Styling wise I think this would grow on me for sure, the two tone paint job, might take a little longer. Rear passenger room borderline. Gearbox not a fan. Having said that I have always had a soft spot for Toyota over the years, and Mrs P was very impressed when she hired a hybrid to get down to Cornwall couple of years ago. So could be on the radar as a second car.
If only the interior was as interesting as the exterior. Looked like a sea of grey and nothing on offer that’s fundamentally different from its rivals. The boot is small and the steeply sloping rear end will further restrict load capacity but I guess buyers will be more impressed with its style rather than practicality. Rear legroom looks tight and together with those small rear windows and the universally dull grey materials, being in the rear seats probably wouldn’t make it an enjoyable place to spend a journey in. I’m sure it’ll sell well - it’s a Toyota and appeals mostly to those who believe the brand offers hassle free motoring and aren’t too bothered about the driving experience.
Windows are waaay too small. Dark inside. Won't help visibility.
1.8L dude … with improved horse power … how did they do that?
I currently run a 2023 C-HR excel as a driving instructor I've already done 19k with now issues and 58 mpg
👍
Surely the 2L should rev less and being more powerful be more torque driven? Doesn’t make sense …
Great review as always, but, I have to say the set up isn’t for me I’m afraid. I know it’s the nature of the vehicle however. 👍🇬🇧
Fair enough!
I’ve tried the cvt in the Yaris hybrid and it seems ok if a little lacking in character. Suppose we’ll have to get used to the idea if we’re going to buy new.
I love the way it looks but just couldn't live with that CVT gearbox, it's a shame 😢
👍
Nice enough car, but that gearbox would drive me mad!
👍
First!! Evening all! Hop everyone is doing well and have a great weekend.
You too!
Love the Two Tone paint.
Love the styling. Toyota Hybrids are reliable as they started with the Prius and Lexus hybrid’s
But I’ve sold my CT200H Premiere
Not a fan of hybrid or electric vehicles.
I’ve owned two Chr’s a 1.8 which was awful ‘underpowered’ and a 2.0 which was OK, they had improved the sound proofing and the extra power was welcome, what I wanted in the face lift was,1. rear space FAIL, 2. Rear ventilation, arm rest and USB, FAIL 3. Improved infotainment, ok TICK. I won’t have another, that eCVT is too annoying. As for the PHEV version, it’s looking like 40 miles EV lugged around by the 2.0 CVT screamer, for north of 42k. I have replaced my Chr with a Cupra Born which I absolutely love, it’s an amazing fun, and quality car. Have to say I’m loving EV life.
Vegan leather = vinyl. Years ago some smart guy marketed vinyl as deer hide. If any one gets vegan leather right it will be Toyota.🤗
Hi all
Hi 👋
Shame this great black/gold Bi-tone colour is only available on the very top spec.
When you said it was priced at £30,000+ I immediately thought I could get a good second hand Honda Civic Type R with more legroom! 😁. Not very green, sorry. 🤦😔.
Good choice!
Not liking the two tone paint , styling is an improvement but no decent rear leg room , but what kills it for me is the driving experience with that awful gearbox.
Toyota hybrids don’t have a gear box as most cars. no clutch and no reverse gear. Only one gear in the power transfer device.
It’s very clever engineering but the downside if you want to accelerate quickly the engine revs don’t increase in line with the cars speed as occurs with a conventional gearbox. It’s probably not the system if you are a sporty driver.
@@keithrobson8649Hmmm….but it is not only the gearbox…the mangly Atkinson cycle engine sounds like bag of old nails and no fun or refinement unless you are dribbling along to work. It is a mess of ugly car that is hard to drive with even glimpse of enjoyment. 🤨😬
would love toyota to do a hybrid with a DSG gearbox from VW …. if it was all about consumption all models should have the 17 inch tyres only…
if you want a bigger car get a bigger car simple …. I wish it was a few centimetres shorter

It's vinyl Peter, man up and say it😃 Not as upmarket sounding I know.
Nice design , not my cup of tea but I am not in that Ibiza demographic 😂
Fair enough!
Must feel so stupid talking about a 1.6 in the entire video. No worries, it turned out to be a lovely review!
Yeah. Didn’t have my glasses with me and miss read my notes 🙄😬😂
6:06 ouch, tight.
😂😂😂
'EVs don't have any soul". "I want to hear my car'. If that hybrid had a soul it was being tortured in the bowels of hell. My last petrol was a very efficient 1.2 litre 3 cylinder Pug. That had a nice gruff little sound if you stirred it along. In 2024 I would have an MG4 over the Toyota any day any where, no competition.
I all for Toyota's exterior. The two tone paint is fresh a great for younger people. Personally I love it. Cars are SO DULL with Silver, grey, black & white.... gold & black.... really nice. However, Toyota's interiors are so boring. Black on black plastic. At around £40,000 it is clear that petrol cars cost as much as full BEVs. Even the BHP figures are similar to full electric cars. Personally, I prefer the silence of electric cars as it being quiet feels as if the car is a higher quality. Revving engines feels like a low quality car.
this is one of those cars that I don't like... and the only reason is the non existent space for rear passengers... having in mind that smaller cars have more space
A very vanilla car trying to hide the fact with an outlandish paint job!
First impressions - cut and shunt paint job (hmmmm) weird choice of how to do 2 tone (which I normally like), rear space (noooo), silly pop-out door handles (uncomfortable and a bit rubbish), over all look (designed by a 7 year old, what is it with fussy asses on Japanese cars), PHEV (ahh if the range is decent (50 miles +), that's good - a friend of mine has a hybrid Merc and has done c.80% on electric only over the past 3 years), choice of engines (seems good), TFT vs a mirror (put in the mirror since it is unlikely to break, I would option out), prices (gulp - a bit pricey), driving experience (I'll trust you on that - quite good). One for the list possibly. I can see them selling loads of these.
1.8 not 1.6
Did you see the on screen banner I put up each time I said it 🤷♂️ I was very short on time and made a simple mistake of misreading my notes as I didn’t have my glasses with me 😬😂
Was listening while doing other things so didn’t see the banners, sorry 👍
It still Amazes me that car manufacturers are Still using Leather for the interiors of their automobiles, when they just as well can use fake leather, or Alcantara. Even vinyl is better than having to kill an animal just to cover the interior of an automobile! We are in the 21st Century, aren't we?
Do you don’t use leather at all ?!
@@PetrolPed I try to stay away from anything made of leather, especially shoes, but no i don't use leather. I've been a long time Vegan for over 30 years. If I bought a classic car that I really wanted, that had leather in the interior, I guess I would have to live with that, but in general, I stay away from anything made of leather. I don't believe in killing an animal to decorate the interior of my automobile. I've already spec'd a few new cars that interest me, and requested Alcantara instead of leather.
Not a fan of this at all...
Morning mate I'm not a fan
NOT a fan of the styling. OR toyota in genera.
Just my opinion.
👍
It is not an EV and it is sort, in my opinion, unattractive.
£42k for a slow noisy car, the car world has gone mad 😡
Cold play have never done any song worth listening too so what is this second album that is good ?? same thing as Oasis sorry only thing he was good at was having a punch up , I hope this car is better than the comparision
SORRY Ibiza is classy hence why this car was launch there ,, next it will be costa del sol is class as well ,, Ibiza 1 week there was drink , sun more drink throwing up , partying , shagging the women from up north that were always half naked , even at the nite clubs lol lol sorry just being honest
Hello Peter. Hmmm….I liked the old C-HR from the start and still think it looks fine but this….sorry but what a mess. The front is bulbous and ugly, the daft black rear end destroys any chance of seeing the lines properly and inside..no..it just doesn’t work. M sorry but I think this thing is a big mistake…a bloated Yaris and manages to look cheap and nasty…..the old car was so much better. 😬😬🫣🫣🫣😊
