We may have said Scion-ara to Toyota’s Scion sub-brand, but that doesn’t mean we’ve seen the last of their models! Originally meant to wear the Scion badge, Toyota’s new C-HR sports the youthful appearance of the canceled brand but with the backing of the Toyota name. Showcasing a bold, stylish design that uses diamond-facetted influences to show it’s a cut above, the C-HR is the new CUV on the block that is turning the heads of millennials wherever it goes.
Featuring a zippy 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine with Variable Valve Timing (VVT) and Valvematic that produces 144 horsepower and 140 pound-feet of torque, the C-HR sends all power to the front wheels via a continuously variable transmission (CVT). The CVT is renowned for enhanced acceleration and fuel economy, two things millennials love, and allows the driver to choose between drive modes such as Eco, Normal, and Sport.
Once inside the C-HR, you will immediately notice soft-touch materials covering surfaces throughout the modern and spacious interior. A 7-inch audio display is positioned centrally atop the dash to reduce eye strain and features Bluetooth hands-free streaming and connectivity. The C-HR also features an instrument cluster display where you can choose between the aforementioned Eco, Normal or Sport modes. All of these features and many more are easily accessible from the bolstered front bucket seats.
