Toyota is keen on solidifying it’s grip of the crossover market with the release of the sexy C-HR 2018 model. Toyota who pioneered the mid size SUV market with the original RAV 4 (The modern day RAV4 is a much larger and dumpier beast) have been facing stiff competition from Nissan, Renault and Honda.
The C-HR is roughly the same size as its main rivals, however, it isn’t as roomy in the back as those cars (blame the sleek roofline) and costs a little bit more to buy. With its beautifully sculptured design, responsive and engaging hybrid powertrain offers a luxurious SUV drive. The Toyota C-HR dynamic, with Toyota Safety Sense as standard and Intelligent Park Assist.
The sleek car comes in five variants; Koba 2WD, C-HR CVT 2WD, Koba AWD, C-HR MT 2WD and C-HR CVT AWD. The key features include:
- 1.2L Turbo Engine
- 7-Speed CVT
- 18” Machined Finish Alloy Wheels
- LED Headlamps with Foglights and Daytime Running Lamps
- Satellite Navigation[N1]
- Rain Sensing Wipers
- Reversing Camera[B4]
- Smart Entry and Start System
- NanoeTM Air purifying technology
- Toyota Safety Sense+[B4] including Pre-Collision Safety System, Active Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert and Automatic High Beam
- Blind Spot Monitor and Rear-Cross Traffic Alert[B4]
- Leather Accented Heated Front Seats with 60:40 Split Fold Rear Seats
- Optional Black or White roof available on selected vehicle colours[ORC]
The sad part about this beauty is that it’s only available for sale abroad but talk nicely to the Toyota Kenya guys, they might just ship one in for you.
