New C-HR here in December

The new generation Toyota C-HR will arrive in Irish dealerships in December and registration of interest is now open, writes Brian Byrne.

The second generation of the crossover has a sharper and sleeker body that the outgoing version, initially available with a choice of 1.8 or 2.0 hybrid powertrains, and a 2.0 plug-in hybrid coming later.

The fifth generation of Toyota's hybrid system offers an increased ratio of EV driving.

Two grades will be available. No prices have been released yet.
