# Toyota C-HR 2024: A Fresh Take on Small Crossovers - Link: https://greenlivingguy.com/2023/08/toyota-c-hr-2024-fresh-take-on-small-crossovers/ - Published: 2023-08-13T13:03:53-04:00 - Author: greenlivingguy ## Introduction In December 2022, Toyota gave us a glimpse of the second-generation C-HR with the Prologue concept. Yet now, the eagerly awaited production model has finally arrived. The 2024 Toyota C-HR offers a substantially different design. One that also retains the funky appeal of its predecessor. All which made it a hit in the competitive small crossover segment. ## A Striking Exterior Design The 2024 Toyota C-HR boasts a “super coupe” profile that sets it apart from its competitors. With its sleek lines and bold proportions, this crossover demands attention on the road. The design is further enhanced by the inclusion of 20-inch wheels and a distinctive two-tone paint job. That’s giving it a touch of sophistication and individuality. Toyota’s attention to detail is evident in the seamless integration of cameras. Also the sensors and headlight washers. That which are carefully incorporated to create a cleaner and more aerodynamic look. ## Dimensions and Interior Comfort Measuring 4360 millimeters (171.6 inches) in length, 1830 mm (72 in) in width, and either 1558 mm (61.3 in) or 1564 mm (61.5 in) in height. Of course, that’s depending on the version, the 2024 Toyota C-HR strikes a perfect balance. That’s between compactness and spaciousness. Stepping inside the cabin, you’ll be greeted by a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster. Also a touchscreen of the same size. Thereby showcasing Toyota’s commitment to cutting-edge technology. For added luxury and convenience, select models offer a head-up display, 64-color ambient lighting. Also a panoramic roof and a premium JBL sound system. ## Hybrid Powertrain for Efficiency In [line with Toyota’s commitment to sustainable](https://greenlivingguy.com/2007/03/burts-bees-founder-introduces-new-organic-baby-clothing-line/) mobility. For the 2024 C-HR is available exclusively with hybrid power in Europe. The range includes a 1.8-liter unit, a 2.0-liter plug-in hybrid setup, and a 2.0- liter [hybrid with optional all-wheel drive](https://greenlivingguy.com/2025/09/toyota-crown-signia-limited-hybrid-test-drive-review/). The base 1.8-liter [hybrid engine](https://greenlivingguy.com/2021/10/reducing-your-footprint-hybrid-cars-with-best-gas-mileage/) delivers a combined output of 140 horsepower (103 kW), while the 2.0-liter setup offers an impressive 198 horsepower (145 kW). For those seeking even more power, the plug-in hybrid variant boasts 223 horsepower (164 kW). These hybrid powertrains not only provide excellent fuel efficiency but also contribute to reduced emissions, making the C-HR an environmentally friendly choice. ## Performance and Handling While the 2024 Toyota C-HR prioritizes efficiency, it doesn’t compromise on performance. The entry-level model with the 1.8-liter hybrid powertrain accelerates from 0 to 62 mph (100 km/h) in just 9.9 seconds and reaches a top speed of 106 mph (170 km/ h). The 2.0-liter front-wheel-drive model takes it up a notch, completing the sprint in 8.1 seconds. Opting for the all-wheel-drive variant shaves off a few milliseconds, with a 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time of 7.9 seconds. Both 2.0-liter hybrid models have a top speed of 112 mph (180 km/h). The plug-in hybrid variant impresses with a 0- 62 mph (100 km/h) time of 7.4 seconds and a top speed of 112 mph (180 km/h). Additionally, the plug-in hybrid variant offers an electric-only range of 41 miles (66 kilometers), providing a clean and efficient driving experience. ## Exclusive Editions and Availability [Toyota is introducing two exclusive editions](https://greenlivingguy.com/2024/02/2024-toyota-rav4-hybrid-woodland-edition-test-drive-review/) of the 2024 C-HR in Europe.
