Description
This 2017 Toyota C-HR VVT-h Icon is a practical hybrid vehicle that combines a 1.8 litre petrol engine with an efficient electric motor. As an Icon trim model, it comes equipped with a range of standard features designed to improve the driving experience, including dual zone automatic air conditioning with climate control and automatic headlights that switch on when needed. For added convenience, the vehicle includes Bluetooth connectivity for phone integration and a reversing camera to assist with parking manoeuvres.
Safety is supported by the Toyota Safety Sense system, which incorporates adaptive cruise control to help maintain a set distance from the vehicle in front. The C-HR is designed with efficiency in mind, offering a fuel economy of 74 mpg and low CO2 emissions, which helps to reduce running costs. Because it meets Euro 6 emission standards, it is suitable for driving in various urban zones.
Furthermore, this model sits in a low insurance group, making it a sensible choice for those looking to manage their ongoing motoring expenses. These combined attributes make the vehicle a balanced option for drivers who prioritise economy and modern safety technology in their daily commute.
About the Toyota C-Hr
Why Buy the Toyota C-HR?
The Toyota C-HR (Coupe High-Rider) stands out in the crowded crossover segment thanks to its distinctive, coupe-like styling. It's a car that prioritises visual flair and a uniquely engaging driving experience over outright practicality, though it still offers reasonable space for most city dwellers and small families. If you're looking for a car that turns heads and delivers Toyota's renowned reliability and efficient hybrid technology, the C-HR is a compelling choice. It offers a comfortable ride, a well-appointed interior with decent tech, and impressive fuel economy, particularly in its popular hybrid variants. While rear passenger space and boot capacity might not be class-leading, its compact footprint makes it easy to manoeuvre and park in urban environments.

Common Issues
While Toyotas are known for reliability, like any car, the C-HR can have a few common niggles:
- Infotainment System: Some early models' infotainment systems could be a bit slow or laggy. Software updates may have addressed this.
- Rear Visibility: The stylish design, particularly the high window line, can compromise rear visibility. Parking sensors and cameras are highly recommended.
- Hybrid Battery Life: While very durable, hybrid batteries do degrade over time. However, Toyota's hybrid batteries are generally very long-lasting, with long warranties.
- Interior Noise: Some owners report a fair amount of road and wind noise at higher speeds, especially on motorway journeys.
Running Costs
The C-HR excels in this area, particularly the hybrid models:
- Fuel: Excellent fuel efficiency, especially in urban driving for hybrids, leading to low fuel bills.
- Road Tax: CO2 emissions are generally low, making road tax affordable, especially for hybrid models.
- Insurance: Typically falls into moderate insurance groups.
- Servicing: Toyota dealers offer competitive servicing packages, and the car's mechanical simplicity generally means fewer costly repairs.
Variants
The Toyota C-HR has been available in various trim levels. Common ones include:
- Icon: The entry-level trim, usually featuring essentials like air conditioning, touchscreen infotainment, and safety aids.
- Design: Adds features like alloy wheels, upgraded interior trim, and often heated seats.
- Excel: A higher trim, typically including features like premium audio, sat-nav, advanced safety systems, and leather upholstery.
- GR Sport: A sportier trim with unique styling elements, enhanced suspension, and sport seats.
The most significant variant is the powertrain: the 1.8L Hybrid was the most common, offering a blend of efficiency and performance. Later first-generation models also saw the introduction of a more powerful 2.0L Hybrid, and a 1.2L Turbo petrol engine was available in some markets and earlier models.
