We've bought a CHR last year and absolutely love it!
so sad 2 read.
@@rc666 why sad???
@@rc666 Just Bought the CHR Orange edition
..
It is so HOT!!!!
I get compliments from literally everyone! Even other drivers passing by in their Mercs BMWs & Lexus! 🔥
@@rc666 YOU'RE SAD BECAUSE YOU CANNOT AFFORD IT BAHAHAHAHA 🤣🤣🤣 I HAVE ONE AND I LOVE IT
We paid £30k for exact car in video. very happy. 80% of commute is driven so far in Electric.
Really like the new intro bob, I think the channel is about to grow even further over the coming weeks and months!👍
Thank you, there’s a lot going on at the moment with loads of offers coming in. It’s great with 50k around the corner too!
Great intro, and yes, the pandemic seems bring more advertisers directly to creators.
Thanks fella, I'm looking forward to more advertisers but maybe a few less ads. There seems to be a lot of ad placements lately
price tellmi
Wel be getting ours when they reopen xx awesome vid, so informative an factual stay awesome x
Yes I'm liking the new introduction bob a sign of the times 😀
Great review love this car having mine in march trading in my RAV4 been good car but can't wait for chr
Glad I subscribed this time as I always enjoyed your reviews. I think the Toyota CHR is way ahead based on design and safety. It’s certainly on my next car agenda 👍
I saw one of these parked next to a regular car the other day and it was _maybe_ an inch taller. I struggle to see how it can be called a "small SUV" let alone a crossover. "Taller hatchback" seems more fitting for this category
Loving the intro Bob. It is a really good looking car indeed!
Thanks Robert!
Hi Bob, for a some time I am watching the videos you publish in internet. Some of them I personally find very interesting and impressive. What I really missed are videos and comments like this one you have published about the history of e-cars and their impact on the environment. I will appreciate very much if you make a short clip about that how the personal vehicles affecting our daily life and lifestyle...especially how the cars change the spaces we share, especially in big metropolitans. How the personal vehicle reflect to our human nature and what are the negative as well as positive effects of that.
I've more documentary videos coming, they take a lot of time to make.
I'm in pre-production on one that you'll like called how cities and towns were shaped by car makers.
Oh Bob, i think i want one now. Great review, i really like it buddy.
You and me both!
Fancy new Intro, great work :)
Glad you like it!
These vids have just moved into the ‘Next Gear’ with that intro, nice👌
Thank Eric!
I wonder would a sunroof help the dark back seats but very expensve already to add more money to the overall cost...love the new intro...
Like the new intro, lockdown has been good for something productive!
Glad you think so, intro music is made especially for this channel.
Sister bought a 191 SOL edition. These things are incredible.
yes
Good review Bob looks very dark in the back I wonder what the economy would be like on a long motorway trip
"2 hour" Sunday service, getting up on 3 hours services now 😂👌 Love the videos Bob, will see you in the chat on Sunday
It's the highlight of the week! See you tomorrow
Great review Bob, this is more like it!
39K though, yikes
Yep, i agree with the masses. Funky intro. Really slick and professional. Like it.
Like the nice updated touches on the CHR. Are they keeping a 1.2 petrol version also?
I'm looking forward to the Yaris cross review when it launches.
I hope the 1.2 manual is still there, but I doubt it. The Yaris cross may be only coming with the 1.5l 3cyl hybrid. The regular Yaris I think still has a manual.
Much appreciated!
They've stopped the 1.2 engine for the UK market. My 1.2 turbo petrol only C-HR was one of the last sold before Toyota announced they were no longer offering it.
Nice shirt Bob
Bob, is the new CH-R Hybrid more quiet inside than the Corolla Hybrid ? i heard this from some reviewers
Car looks amazing. Hope to buy one this weekend. I am 6.5 and have no issues.
@@AngelFish007 yep. Best car I owned.
@@AngelFish007 its dark in the back. But I hardly have passengers in the back nor kids. I have been in the back 1 or 2 times. Yes it feels dark, but for me it fell comfortable. A pillow is all I need and 😴😃
@@AngelFish007 depends on your budget. If you have the budget take the 2.0 hybrid. Otherwise the 1.8 hybrid. The 2.0 is bit faster and more silent. On the other hand the 1.8 has better fuel economy. (and slightly bigger boot). And try to take the one with full options.
@@AngelFish007 no problem 😊😁
OK, watching your video just a bit further. I recognize that running a Skoda Fabia estate, I received the longer end of the stick.
By that, I sort of realize that a «shining new design» can not replace the concept of «enough». Space, comfort and power could just be compacted into a simple and honest design. Without the outrageous design elements. Thus reconsidering, go for «enough»!
I have been a fan of Toyota since I was very young (since 1993). This car at least stands out for being distinctive unlike so many very previous Toyotas. However this C-HR does not fare well in terms of reliability which has long been regarded as the most appealing aspect of Toyota ownership. A friend of mine bought one brand new in 2018 and treats it like a baby. He had a serious issue with the car stalling. It was under warranty and brought it to our local Toyota dealer (Brian Geary Limerick). The VVT-I controller, oil control bolt and camshaft had to be replaced. The main reason I would buy a Toyota is reliability(although I now drive a Mazda, so far flawless since 2014). I seriously hope this was an exception and Toyota is not going downhill in terms of reliability in order to reduce costs. If this will be the case going forward I could never consider purchasing a Toyota unless it was built in Japan. Only a Toyota/Lexus built in Japan would be appealing in terms of reliability and build quality.
My analogy for CVT is imagine a gearbox composed of rubber bands and a traffic cone....
Also a good description for the driving experience with early CVTs.
That noise gets on my nerves because it's not always there, like a creaking door
Just like DAF had in their little cars back in the 60’s/70’s.
Bad analogy. There's no belt it uses planetary gears instead.
Great review, Bob. You look really uncomfortable in the back seat as if you're being pushed forward, rather than reclining.
Very watchable bob
You have to give credit to Toyota for putting out something different and interesting into a market of dull clones.
Toyota is definition of dull and boring.
@@vosk6481 Ohhh This Car will Shock you!
It's like a cross mix between their sub-brands, LEXUS & Scion
@@vosk6481 ehm No. C-HR, RAV4, Yars GR, the new Corolla are not boring. The Verso was boring.
@@vosk6481 GT86 boring? I think not. Well mine is lovely.
Nice wee car 👌
They’re must be a fair bit of lift in it though with 190bhp, unless it’s really heavy? Apologies if I missed in the video, what kind of mileage were you getting from fuel within the limited range you could do (sure most people won’t be going too far in these normally anyway)?
Also, the new into is deadly 😎😎😎
Now C-HR, Compact High Rider, Cross Hatch Run-about or Coupé High-Rider?
but Bob. what is the next gear, I only have one in my electric car?
Whatever the next gear is I'm it!
@tom quimby fear not. The Taycan has two gears :)
Have the Japanese cars changed from their all plastic dashboard, at long last?
Yes, the bits you touch anyway.
Cool intro, Bob!
Maybe the CH-R refresh is sculpted to extract the most amount of profit & value to build for Toyota, but it beggars belief how the punchier 2.0l hybrid that was almost exclusive in the Corolla can now be fitted in the new CH-R, but not for the more capacious Prius for that matter - all TNGA-C.
Edit: the eCVT is a simple and overlooked thing. It's essentially a Ford Model T -like planetary gearbox. But instead of 2 clutches to engage the gears, there are two large electric motors that use their variable rpms to create the many gear ratios for the engine as well as electricity genetation.
It's a really good engine, shame it's on CVT because I suspect it would make a good noise
I think the older one looked sharper.
Test drove this car, very impressive but I found the 1.8 to be massively under powered.
I did the same,but my friend said if this vechile you want you have to deal with the under power house power
Quite expensive for a Toyota? I am assuming its the Tech in the car that jacks the price of the car up
Ah now your white balance is fine Bob, a wee touch of over exposure at 5.40 though.😊
HAHA love it, you are very observant!
Great car.... to leave home that dodgy date next day..... unlikely to be seen in the "cave".
Positive upbeat intro Bob.
My wife has the 2 litre model with excel trim only about 6 months old ( it’s her money not mine ) thank god ,what is this car about has absolutely nothing going for it .
“tHiS iS tHe ToWyOwTuH C-HaYtTsH ArRrR”
Its just a more efficient petrol engine, nothing more, nothing less. Driving downhill tends not to need gas to move the car anyway. Mild hybrid is veey common now. If range is a concern then why not a diesel _ range is the same if not longer and car tax is lower. You can even find mild hybrid diesels.
But diesels are shocking round town the CHR DOES 80/85 mpg round town and 70 mpg on the motorway I have one a 2020 plate so I’d say it’s better than diesel for economy I’ve had both types.
@@damianroddis4301 No diesels are good around town. They're built for longer trips at constant speeds or very low temp driving. Hence their application in long haul/high torque requirement/towing/low speed requirements
£29000 for the base model i don't think so, SUV's are over priced even if it this is a hybrid it is still to compromised for me where are the hybrid MPV's!.
That's shocking.
I like it till I got inside ! too small to dark ! Style over substance !
I totally agree!
Sadly if looks sold cars we'd all be driving old citroens and alfa romeo. Instead the utterly anonymous golf and corolla were best sellers
Very informative review. I really annoyed it. Thanks
Bit expensive
no one talking about his pants lmao
Why would you talk about my pants?
Wow I’m first!
Yes you are!
Sorry Bob, but a sporty looking Toyota. That´s a pretty hefty contradiction... Toyota offering something remotely sporty? Well, I know of the few really sporty ones. But this? Honestly? This?
The Yaris GR... the GT 86... Supra... and my next car, the Corolla GR Sport 2.0. Toyota know how to do "sporty" alright!
Update your haircut.
Im 5'7", she is built for me... but it's hideously ugly, too many angles, busy design. I wouldn't want it.
i own a 2019 c-hr gle. it is the most utterly piece of crap. after 2 years of ownership and 40k miles it makes me wish i had bought a yugo!
spacious: somewhat
good mileage?? not in the least. my 1990 suzuki samurai gave 45/50 miles to the gallon.
battery is out in less than 2 years, so were the tires which lasted about 38k miles.
noises from low workmanship. it has them all. currently, in slow turns, the steering system cracks, rattles and moans constantly. and then there is the ever bubbling sound after it gets warmed up. what did the dealership service department say all and every time i took the car for inspection? they said that there was nothing wrong with the car. a yugo's the way to go.
suspension. it bottoms up every time with the slightest depression on the road. the front absorbers (struts or rubber bands or whatever they use to deal with this) is so horrendous and the japanese mechanic at the dealership says there is nothing wrong with the suspension. a yugo is the way to go!
i am telling you guys and gals, save yourselves the aggravation of a great looking piece of crap and buy yourselves a yugo!! the 80's and 90's yugo that is!
Sorry Toyota but damm , that’s uuuuuuuuugly what teenager designed this, it’s a Yaris with platforms on
