Used Toyota C-HR cars for sale

Originally launched in the UK in 2017, the Toyota C-HR is a mid-sized crossover SUV known for its agility, efficiency and distinctive style. Toyota designed it as a mix between a crossover and a coupe, giving it a unique look and enhanced performance. Consequently, it delivers a dynamic and sporty drive, performing very well against other crossovers such as the Nissan Qashqai, Honda HR-V and Peugeot 3008.

Coming in petrol and self-charging hybrid engines, a used Toyota C-HR is perfect for families on the go. Providing quick acceleration with great handling and control, the C-HR was awarded Best Car for City Drivers in the Auto Trader New Car Awards 2019. In fact, Toyota specifically designed the C-HR with European drivers in mind, ensuring the car had good grip and handling on winding roads.

Step inside and you’ll find a spacious cabin despite the C-HR’s compact design. It has a good-sized boot as well, with plenty of storage space inside for all the items you may need for long or short trips away. Boot space and comfort features will vary depending on which trim you choose, but the Toyota C-HR certainly does not disappoint when it comes to practicality and comfort.

Practicality and style of the car

At 377 litres, the boot of the Toyota C-HR is a reasonable size for the vehicle’s compact nature. It has also been designed to have a wide load bay so you can unload and load with ease. You can expand its capacity to 1,160 litres by putting the back seats down.

You will also find a clever, compact storage compartment located underneath the boot floor, which is useful for storing breakdown emergency kits or any small loose items.

Running costs

Sitting in insurance groups 14 to 22 and road tax going up to £200, a used Toyota C-HR offers good value for money. You will find the self-charging hybrid models sit at the higher end of the insurance groups, but they also benefit from a road tax discount for hybrid engines. A used Toyota C-HR matches the Peugeot 3008 and is lower than the Honda HR-V, two of its main market rivals, in running costs.

How a used Toyota C-HR drives

Used Toyota C-HR cars are available in either turbo petrol or self-charging hybrid engines, with newer iterations focussing on the hybrid engine only.

A used Toyota C-HR has good handling, and Toyota tuned the car’s suspension to specifically suit the unique driving conditions of European and UK roads. So even on the most winding and bumpy routes, you can expect the C-HR to deliver a smooth ride as well as plenty of grip and control. Toyota did this by pairing a fairly typical MacPherson strut front suspension with double wishbones at the rear of the car, which is a more advanced setup than most rivals which have a torsion beam rear axle.

The self-charging hybrid engines in the Toyota C-HR are some of the best on the market in terms of their acceleration and power. By developing a smaller yet still powerful battery, Toyota has designed an incredibly efficient hybrid engine.

The 1.8-litre hybrid engine puts down 120bhp, hits 0-62mph in 11 seconds and can achieve fuel economy of 72.4–74.3mpg. Meanwhile, the 2.0-litre hybrid is more powerful at 181bhp, racing from 0-62mph in 8.2 seconds. It does all that without a significant compromise on fuel economy – it still achieves a competitive 54.3mpg. The power generated by these self-charging hybrid engines is outputted to the front wheels via a responsive CVT automatic gearbox.

You can also find a used Toyota C-HR available with a 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine with options for either a manual or CVT automatic gearbox. The 1.2-litre petrol engine puts down up to 114bhp and achieves 46.3–47.9mpg. It can reach 0-62mph in 10.9 seconds.

Features you can expect in a Toyota C-HR

Interior

Despite being a compact SUV, the Toyota C-HR has a raised ride height – in fact, C-HR stands for ‘compact high-rider’. This helps make it a comfortable ride for up to four adults, with a decent amount of headroom and legroom in the rear seats. In the front, the driver’s seat can be elevated to give a panoramic view of the road ahead due to the low dashboard and large windscreen, which is both stylish and practical.

The interior storage space in a used Toyota C-HR is great for families with young children. Large door bins can be filled with drinks bottles and other items to entertain the children on longer journeys while helping to keep the cabin tidy. In the front, a large glovebox and a lidded container in between the front seats means that the driver and front passenger can store their own items out of the way too.

Technology

The dashboard is furnished with high-quality materials, and most trims include an 8-inch touchscreen infotainment display with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity. With this you can easily connect your smartphone to the car for music, navigation, or hands-free calling.

Safety features on a used Toyota C-HR can include lane-departure warning, which keeps you in lane on the motorway, preventing you from drifting out.

Euro NCAP awarded the Toyota C-HR a full five-star rating for crash test performance, giving you peace of mind that you’re well protected out on the road. Specifically, it scored 95% for adult occupant protection and 77% for child occupants.
