The model
Read full Toyota C-HR reviewThe Toyota C-HR's low running costs and good equipment levels partly make up for its relatively high price tag, but its ride, handling and practicality are not as good as the best small SUV rivals'. If you do buy a C-HR, we think the 1.8-litre regular hybrid in Design trim is the best choice.
The trim
See full equipmentComes with loads of creature comforts as standard, but pushes the C-HR's price into the territory of altogether bigger and better SUVs. We reckon the cheaper trims make more sense.
The engine
See full engine specsThe 1.8-litre is our pick. It’s no speed demon, managing 0-62mph in 10.2sec, but it’ll get you up to motorway speeds without too much fuss, plus it keeps the price respectable.
