Sportier, Smarter, Sharper: Why the upgraded C-HR Feels Like a Whole New Car
Posted in Toyota Tips Insights
The Toyota C-HR has always been known for its head-turning style and fun personality, but the upgraded C-HR (launched in 2024) marks a complete evolution. Designed in Europe and built exclusively as a hybrid, this new generation of C-HR delivers a bold step forward in design, performance and technology. Let's break down why it feels like a whole new car:
All-New Coupe-Inspired Design
The C-HR has been reimagined from the ground up, featuring a striking new silhouette with a coupe-like roofline, muscular wheel arches and sleek LED lighting. Flush door handles and two-tone colour options (including the eye-catching new colours Emeraldine and Deep Copper) add to its futuristic edge.
It’s bold, confident, and unmistakably modern, just the way a C-HR should be.
100% Hybrid Powertrains
For the first time, the C-HR is available exclusively with Toyota Hybrid Electric technology in Australia, delivering better fuel efficiency and lower emissions without compromising performance.
Choose from:
- GXL and Koba: 1.8L 4-cylinder Hybrid with 103kW combined power
- GR Sport: 2.0L 4-cylinder Hybrid with 145kW and a sportier drive feel
With combined fuel economy as low as 4.0L/100km*, the new C-HR is perfect for both city zipping and weekend coastal getaways.
Big Tech Upgrades Inside
The cabin has had a full tech makeover, with most grades featuring:
- 12.3" multimedia touchscreen (all grades)
- Wireless Apple CarPlay® & wired Android Auto™ (all grades)
- Smart Entry & Push Start (all grades)
- Dual-Zone climate control
- Available 12.3" digital instrument cluster (Koba & GR Sport)
And the best part? It’s all wrapped in premium materials, ambient lighting with up to 64 colours to set the mood (on Koba and GR Sport) and a more refined, driver-focused layout.
Toyota Safety Sense – Now Even Smarter
Toyota’s latest Safety Sense suite comes standard across the range, with features including:
- Pre-Collision Safety system with pedestrian and cyclist detection
- Lane Trace Assist
- Road Sign Assist
- Intersection Turn Assistance
- Proactive Driving Assist
This makes the new Toyota C-HR one of the smartest small SUVs on Australian roads.
So, What’s the Verdict?
Whether you're after a stylish city SUV, an efficient hybrid for daily driving or a tech-packed ride that stands out, the 2024 Toyota C-HR delivers.
It’s not just an upgrade, it’s an all-new generation and it’s built for Australian roads and drivers.
