What Engine Powers the 2024 Toyota C-HR?
Headlining a long list of upgrades for the 2024 Toyota C-HR range is a choice of two hybrid engine options for buyers here in Australia.
The entry-level C-HR GXL and Koba pick up a 1.8-litre four-cylinder petrol paired with an electric motor that produces a combined 103kW of power and an unknown torque figure, powering the wheels via a CVT automatic.
Stepping up to the flagship C-HR GR Sport adds a 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine paired with an electric motor producing a healthier 145kW of power to all four wheels via an all-wheel drive system.
Is it Fuel Efficient?
Toyota is yet to confirm exact fuel economy figures for the upcoming 2024 C-HR, though it seems only reasonable to assume that the second-gen will improve upon the already impressive fuel efficiency of its predecessor.
For reference, the first-gen Toyota C-HR Hybrid is rated at 4.3L/100km on a combined cycle, making it one of the most fuel-efficient small SUVs on the planet.
Using that as a jumping-off point, we can safely assume the 2024 C-HR will return equal, if not better fuel economy figures around the low 4L/100km mark, asserting its reputation as one of the most frugal compact SUVs on sale.
Is the Toyota C-HR Practical and Spacious?
While Toyota is yet to give us a look at the C-HR’s full cabin layout, we do know the overall size of the package, which is almost identical to the first-gen C-HR.
All up, the C-HR measures 4360mm long, stands 1558-1564mm tall, depending on the variant, measures 1830mm wide and has a wheelbase spanning 2640mm; the latter of which is identical to the MY23 C-HR.
Aside from the dimensions, we can only judge the cabin’s layout from the press photos that Toyota has provided.
Using those photos as a reference, though, the C-HR’s interior looks to have been given a significant overhaul that makes it a more premium package, while a redesigned centre console looks to offer more storage options than before.
The previous generation C-HR had a boot measuring in at 377L, meaning it didn’t offer the largest boot in the segment, nor was it a segment leader in terms of second-row accommodation.
Having said that, Toyota’s new platform underpinning the C-HR is likely to unlock more space inside the cabin while Toyota’s updated designs may offer more second-row space for taller rear passengers.
Is it Safe?
The 2024 Toyota C-HR is yet to be tested by ANCAP, though it’s likely to wear the same five-star ANCAP safety rating that its predecessor received.
As standard, the 2024 C-HR range comes packed with active safety equipment.
The list includes autonomous emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, junction assist, a surround-view monitor with front & rear parking sensors and blind-spot monitoring.
More details on safety equipment are set to be revealed closer to its official launch.
Our Verdict: Is the Toyota C-HR Worth it?
The latest generation C-HR looks to be a huge leap forward for Toyota’s small SUV.
The hybrid-only engine lineup shows Toyota is keen on offering only the most fuel-efficient compact SUVs to the Australian market, while the revised styling package and revamped interior make for one of the most modern packages set to hit the market in 2024.
As a result, we’d encourage you to add the Toyota C-HR to your shortlist if you’re looking to upgrade to a small SUV in the coming months.
