The all-new 2026 Toyota C-HR has been added to the growing list of Toyota’s battery electric vehicle (BEV) lineup.

With an eye-catching, wide, athletic coupe-like profile, the model joins the revised bZ and the new bZ Woodland SUVs when it goes on sale next month.

The C-HR also offers powerful electric performance, with dual motors and standard electronic All Wheel Drive (AWD) for 338 combined system horsepower.

The C-HR brings a blend of dynamic style and performance throughout, from its manufacturer-estimated 4.9-second 0-60-mph time to its sleek roofline to its modern interior feel. Its style is balanced with a practical side too, with up to 25.3 cubic feet of cargo space behind the 60/40 split-folding rear seats, and up to 59.5 cubic feet of space with the rear seats folded flat.

With its 74.7-kWh battery, the C-HR’s EPA-estimated total range rating is 287 miles* on the SE grade with 18-inch wheels, while the XSE grade with 20-inch wheels gets an EPA-estimated range rating of 273 miles.

Every C-HR includes a North American Charging System (NACS) charge port, giving it access to thousands of DC fast-charging stations and Level 2 chargers nationwide.

Developed from a compact BEV concept Toyota first presented in 2022, the new C-HR BEV is among the 21 electrified models in the U.S. Toyota lineup, and third BEV available in the U.S.

It carries forward Toyota’s multi-pathway powertrain approach, with a variety of model choices available across its lineup to fit customers’ lifestyles, including BEV, Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid, and Fuel Cell EV (California only) powertrains.

*Actual range and charging times will vary depending on weather and other factors.

Spacious style

The Toyota C-HR BEV is designed as an expression of the fun-to-drive, exhilarating character of electric vehicles. Like the bZ and bZ Woodland, the C-HR is built on Toyota’s dedicated e-TNGA battery electric vehicle platform, its flowing body lines and wide stance conveying a dynamic drive. The vehicle’s compact coupe silhouette is formed by Toyota’s signature hammerhead front end flowing seamlessly into a compact cabin and angular rear.

The C-HR has wide, compact crossover proportions with an overall length of 177.9-inches, an overall width of 73.6-inches, a wheelbase of 108.3-inches, and an overall height of 63.8-inches. This helps give it spacious accommodation, with generous headroom and ample cabin space.

The interior design is clean and open, with a slim driver’s display and easy-to-access center console. For an added touch, it also has customizable ambient lighting for setting just the right mood. Altogether, it has a comfortable, high-tech cabin that is stylish and functional.

It also provides drivers and passengers alike with plenty of comfort and convenience, such as two wireless smartphone chargers and rear cabin USB ports to ensure everyone on board can be connected when on the move; rear cabin air conditioning controls; and an available panoramic roof that brings natural light to all parts of the interior.

 

Two style and value-packed grades

Available in SE and XSE grades, the C-HR has a number of standard interior features, with even the SE including a 14-inch touchscreen that runs the Toyota Audio Multimedia system, a fully digital gauge cluster, dual wireless chargers in the center console, and the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 system. The cabin also brings modern style and comfort across the grades, with seating choices from fabric and SofTex-trim to synthetic suede and SofTex trim.

 

Active Safety & Driver Assist Technology

The C-HR features Toyota Safety Sense 3.0™, Toyota’s suite of active safety and driver assistance features designed to support driver awareness, decision-making, and vehicle operation.

These features include the pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD); full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DCRR); Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA); Lane Tracing Assist (LTA); Road Sign Assist (RSA), among others.

The Toyota C-HR is also equipped with Toyota’s Star Safety System, standard. This system includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA), and Smart Stop Technology® (SST).

 

Limited Warranty

Toyota’s 36-month/36,000-mile basic new-vehicle warranty applies to all components other than normal wear and maintenance items. Additional 60-month warranties cover the powertrain for 60,000 miles and corrosion with no mileage limitation. The Electric Vehicle Driving Components, including the traction battery, are covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. Toyota dealers have complete details on the limited warranty.

The Toyota C-HR also comes with ToyotaCare, a plan covering normal factory-scheduled maintenance, for two years or 25,000 miles, whichever comes first, and three years of Roadside Assistance, regardless of mileage.
