Expert Reviews

Expert reviews: 

The 2018 Toyota C-HR is all-new for 2018.The Toyota C-HR is well-equipped in its base XLE form, with automatic headlights, dual-zone automatic climate control and traffic-adapting cruise control all standard. Considering the C-HR's high starting price (compared to the rest of the class), you might be wary of paying more for the XLE Premium, our recommended trim. But it doesn't cost much more than the XLE and includes desirable features such as heated front seats and a blind-spot monitoring system with rear cross-traffic alert. We think it's worth paying just a little more for the luxury and safety additions.

Pros
Sporty handling makes it fun to zip around turns.
Comes standard with plenty of features, including advanced safety.
Swoopy styling helps it stand out

Cons
Unlike on most rivals, all-wheel drive isn't available.
Can seem slow when accelerating to highway speeds.
Navigation, satellite radio and Apple CarPlay/Android Auto not offered

The 2018 Toyota C-HR rides high, with astonishing looks that we like (you may differ); they're the selling point for a slow car that doesn't offer all-wheel drive despite a crossover label.

Pros
Unexpected shape that works
Interesting, functional interior
High-riding shape spacious inside
Decent handling, roadholding

Cons
Polarizing looks
No AWD, meaning not a crossover
It's just slow, all the time
Subpar fuel economy
