The hugely-anticipated stylish crossover from Toyota has finally landed in South Africa. We were eager to give the newcomer a spin and came away highly impressed.
It’s been a while since Toyota introduced a product with standout aesthetic appeal. Sure, the new Fortuner has oodles of kerb presence, but the C-HR appeals on more levels. This looks like a car from the future and at this price point, it’s actually attainable. It lands slap-bang in the highly popular compact family car/crossover/baby SUV segment, where, until this week, the lack of a Toyota product was rather obvious.
The Turkish-built Toyota C-HR comes to market with 1 engine, two transmission options and there is a pair of trim levels available. It’s the engine that deserves closer scrutiny as it marks a new chapter for the Japanese brand in South Africa – the introduction of a turbopetrol motor.
