- I bought a Toyota C-HR. The reason we bought The C-HR Is mainly down to design, economy, perfect for our family and practicality for going into the city of Palma De Mallorca.
It's fitted with a super-economical hybrid system to give you great economy that is up to 59mpg! it's a great car especially in Spain.

Thank you so much for this honest apraisal. We've ordered one, pick it up in two weeks time and, since signing the contract, I've been going through the usual "oh-my-god-have-we-made-the-right-decision?-did-I-research-enough-beforehand?" roller coaster. Now I'm reassured. Cheers Steve
I have the 2018 CHR XLE Premium. I LOVE it. No problems with it so far. Thanks for your review. I call it my Goldilocks car because it's not too big and not too small. It's just the right size for my needs:) Cheers!
Bang on! Great to hear it’s ticking all the boxes and thanks for watching! 🙏
My 2018 will be six years young this month. Red/White XLE. I only have 45.7k miles on it. Got the CVT fluid flushed at 30k. Will get the CVT filter done at 60k miles or earlier (age?). No issues with that problematic K114 - yet...
I have an Arduino box with CANBUS - I use a rocker switch to change drive modes and DON'T have to use that stupid menu 😁
Thanks for sharing.....I've been thinking about buying the C-HR....your video has me leaning in that direction
Thanks for watching 🙌🏼
Man my husband T boned another car. The other car was making a u turn in front of my husband. My husband was doing 47 mph. When he hit the other car. It totaled the car. But my husband is ok. We feel blessed and feel the CHR protected him. It is a strong car and we are going to get another one. We have the CHR Limit 2019
Great car 5 out of 5 safety rating 👍
I bought a 2021 CH-R. We drive a lot and put 120,000 km on it already. Such a reliable car, not one issue and great gas mileage. No regrets with this car.
I own a 2021 CH-R Dynamic 1.8 and I love it. Would definetely recommend buying one.The bonus is when you get your car serviced at a dealership they put an additional years warranty on it , up to 10 years.
Great review in fairness
Thank you 🙏
Looks a nice car Steve does the job on over there . Hope everyone is well best wishes Greg
Thanks Greg. 🙏
Welcome anytime mate
Just ordered another CHR this time the 2.0
The CHR I have now has done 110.00 miles no issues
Most reliable car on the planet
Great move Robert 🙌🏼
Got the C-HR 2 litre hybrid GR Sport earlier this year, very comfortable even with the slightly stiffer suspension set up & very relaxing to drive, also pretty nippy & also frugal at the same time. It's the only car so far where someone has asked in the carpark what is it 😂
Great choice! Glad you’re enjoying it. Thanks for watching the video 🙏
I pick up the C-HR GR Sport in two weeks, I have had Toyota cars over the last forty years and never had a breakdown.
I HAVE A 2019 CHR XLE PREMIUM, THE CAR DRIVES WELL! IT'S MAINTENANCE COSTS ARE VERY MANAGEABLE, SO FAR I AM VERY HAPPY!!
Definitely agree 👏
I just bought previous week xle premium 2018 1.2t manual with 50k klm and is the smoothest car I ever drive very very happy with my choice I am in love with the car!
Greta choice, longest car we’ve kept and can’t see what to change it for
I have a 2017 CHR hybrid and really love it... not a sports car but unbelievable good fuel economy if driven wisely. Never had a problem with the car.
Great car and echo all that you said 👍
I have the 2021 gr sport 2l I gotta say the car is fast smooth and the look of the car is amazing I would recommend to get one
Great choice and spec I actually drove a 2021 GR sport a few weeks ago whilst back on the UK. Loved it
Looking for a new car as we speak, the appeal of a Toyota and the looks of the CHR puts it high on the list, the Important thing for me is comfort and a smooth ride(My back is knackered) .
I have a Qashqi that has been great, hired a T Cross to see what that was like, a very disappointing experience and I guess all the VAG cars will be similar, so will have a close look at the CHR and the Hyundai Kona.
I appreciate the review, I much prefer the honesty of the end user.
Thanks Ian, definitely worth a drive and check if it ticks boxes for your back etc 👍
I love the futuristic design of the exterior and I will be seriously interested in the all new model when it's in the showrooms in the UK which is imminent I believe.
Definitely. I think Toyota have got a great model and audience with what they’ve done
Yes it will cost £40,000
I love my C-hr. I understand it is a scion with a Toyota badge. It is super reliable, low maintenance cost, excellent fuel economy and more. The hybrid is better than gasoline only engines, so consider yourself fortunate.
Totally agree, ticks a lot of boxes
Love this car
Great motor
to have this car with 2 children, this is a chaaallenge, but overall the car is just fantastic, design, economy everything is just beautiful
I don’t find it too bad with the 2 kids but we do have something bigger also as we have 2 dogs 🐕
@@SteveCorwood oh wow, that's impressive😃 I drive just alone usually and I think maybe it won't be enough space for all my things there... but 6 entire souls in this car, dude🤪
I love the designe
I really like it to, it’s got great lines to the body work
currently looking at this in icon trim or the kia stonic?
All good choices. Comes down to personal preference I would say 👍
I love it! I also have a 2019 and purchased it in March. I'm about to get an upgrade (2023) two tone.
Brilliant, are you upgrading and sticking to CHR I believe there’s some cool features with it
Nice, the 2 tone looks awesome
@@SteveCorwood I upgraded but not to the CHR like I wanted... they told me that 2022 was the last year to have them. They are not making them anymore. :(
@@peggymyer what, I need to check this out
@@SteveCorwood please do and let me know.
Too bad you can not get that awesome 2024 C-HR. I don't care much about the GR version, but the one below rocks the box. So many features in the 2024 model. And OH, they put a real switch for drive modes. I think the 64-color ambient lighting a bit kitchy. I like the full camera rear view mirror - no issues when passengers are in the back. Not sure what the thing is on top of the steering wheel column on the 2024 - for the auto parking feature? - distracted driver safety sensor?
Loads of room in that boot for soft luggage bags to pack in. 👌
Yeah it’s good space 👍
Coupe high rider 😊 CHR. Lovely little car just need a strong engine to match these strong bold looks 💫💫
Totally agree, a bit more power would not go a miss
@@SteveCorwood I have mine 2022 Toyota CHR Blue the 1.2 turbo and i just love it, it’s enjoyable and it drives beautifully 💫 💫
@@ferohabibi1137 they tick a lot
Of boxes
@@SteveCorwood yeah exactly ❤️
Why the hell can’t we get the hybrid version of the CHR( I call it the Celica High Rider) in the U.S.⁉️ I love Toyota but they do some real stupid mess sometimes.
I didn’t know you couldn’t get the hybrid version. That’s madness
i LOVE MINE
Seems to be the way for
Most Nancy 👍
Nice car
🙌🏼
Stop being a snob it's a superb car I love the c-hr. Its more than most people can afford.😗
Thanks for the feedback, I’m most definitely not trying to be a snob, I am a CHR owner and this video highlights the exact opposite. It’s a video that highlights that you should buy a CHR.
i bought my chr love it...
Everyone who’s had one seems to say the same 🙏
I really like the design of the car, I think before the introduction of the 2023 model it was ahead of its time, and still holds up in 2023.
I really do think this car gets too much hate, more than it deserves. I think ppl are being ultra-picky.
As they say, you either love it or hate it. If you're the type of person that likes to be independent and separate from the crowd this is a great option.
In terms of speed, disregard its "slow" badge that everyone loves to slap on this car. Its an exaggeration that is unfairly leveled at this car. It will be perfectly adequate and suitable for 99.99999999% of average drivers, which is most ppl.
Great information Matthew, I think you’re spot on 🙌🏼
@@SteveCorwood
Cheers
One thing that really bothered me about C-HR is the sound isolation. It's so horrendous that we can even hear it in this video, and I'm kind of struggling to hear what you're talking about. It's mostly due to the poor isolation of the floor. CVT also contributes to that.
Totally agree on the noise from the CVT if they could sort that it would be mega
Recommendation on your second car is definitely a Toyota Corolla Cross Hybrid! Lots of positive reviews on TH-cam. Should be available in June, but check with your dealer in your area. Always make sure you drive it, ask all your questions, and do not rush into buying any car b4 you are sure. If your wife knows more about cars, then take her. Do not get emotional with the salespeople. You will get taken advantage of!
🙌🏼
I have a CH-R 1.8 GR model and love it ........ go and test a M3/4 if your looking for performance.
They are a great car Ian. Definitely have to give the M3/4 a drive
Yeah. Buy a CHR and Supra. Do as you like. Slow vs Fast.
I like the look of it . Just 2 things i dont like. Seems very dark and dingy inside . And the blind spots . You did a good review thanks .
Blind spots are definitely there but it’s compact and for reversing the camera is great. Inside is a little dark but I never gave it that much thought until you mentioned it. 🤣
Thanks for watching 👍
I have a minature schnauzer that loves to look out the back window while I drive . He would be gutted too haha.
@@mattsays9065 ha ha!! It’s a struggle for me. We can get the cockapoo in but the Rottweiler we have no chance 🤦🏻♂️
Haha wow yeah bit of a squeeze . I love toyota but not sure about this one. I will go and test drive to be sure though .
@@mattsays9065 it’s the longest car we’ve had and we’ve had a lot 🤣
Hi, actually C-HR stands for Coupé High Rider, not Compact ;)
Thanks Michael 🙏
Compact is another name too🙂
@@jaydeguzman4944 thanks Jay 👍
Your right
Dude, get a USB adapter with several ports!
Great shout 👍
Not only is is filthy, the steering wheel is on the wrong side!! :-)
🤣🤣
why use a phone when driving?
I would love to know when you think a phone is being used and on what capacity?
don't buy. The car has issues with the transmission. 50 miles, I had to have the transmission replaced. Luckily it was under warranty. Now 4 years later...more issues with the transmission. If you have one...get an extended warranty or trade it in asap!
