- Design Revamp: The C-HR+ features a modern, sophisticated appearance with a sloping roofline, stylish wheels, and larger dimensions—4.4 inches longer overall and in wheelbase than its predecessor.
- Family-Friendly Space: It comfortably accommodates families with improved interior room.
Launching first in Europe, the C-HR+ shares components with the updated 2026 Toyota bZ4X:
- Battery Options: Two battery sizes (57.7 kWh and 77.0 kWh) produce horsepower ranging from 165 to 338.
- Impressive Acceleration: The all-wheel-drive variant promises a 0-60 mph time of under 5.2 seconds.
- Estimated Range: Anticipated to achieve approximately 270 miles according to U.S. EPA tests, depending on the battery size.
Charging Features:
- Fast Charging: Capable of charging at up to 150 kW, it also includes an improved battery preconditioning system for more efficient charging in diverse weather conditions.
- Interior Layout: Equipped with a 14.0-inch touchscreen that integrates climate controls and includes dual wireless chargers, all with premium materials.
- Spacious Design: Provides enhanced rear-seat legroom, though headroom might be restricted for taller occupants.
- Cargo Convenience: Features a 1500-watt outlet and an adjustable load floor for better usability.
The 2026 C-HR+ aims to rectify past missteps with Toyota's EV offerings, but its success will depend significantly on its pricing. If it enters the market around $30,000, it could attract buyers, even with some compromises in range or charging speed.
In summary, the 2026 Toyota C-HR+ emerges as a promising contender in the affordable EV market, with performance, spaciousness, and pricing at the forefront of its appeal.
