The Toyota C-HR stands out on the road with its futuristic and exciting design, offering a sporty look with sharp edges and a low sloping roofline.
The flagship Toyota C-HR GR Sport comes with interior enhancements, premium materials, and a $12,000 premium over the base model.
The GR Sport offers a luxurious cabin with premium suede, leather, and red accents, along with heated front seats and a heated steering wheel.
The interior features a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless charging tray, and a colour head-up display.
While the front row offers plush and spacious accommodations, the second row lacks legroom and headroom, with limited storage and no rear air vents.
The Toyota C-HR GR Sport is powered by a 2.0L petrol engine combined with electric drive motors, producing a total of 145kW sent to all wheels through a CVT.
The GR Sport excels in city driving with nimble handling, but the powertrain lacks engagement, leading to a more sedate driving experience.
Safety features include blind-spot monitoring, autonomous emergency braking, lane keep assist, and a comprehensive suite of driver assists for a relaxing drive.
The C-HR GR Sport offers style and comfort, but falls short in delivering true sportiness expected from the GR badge, making it better suited for urban driving.
With a high price tag of nearly $55,000 before on-road costs, the GR Sport faces stiff competition in the crossover SUV market, with other models offering better value.
