The design concept of the C-HR is “”Sensual Speed-Cross. In addition to expressing the speedy body and the SUV’s tough undercarriage, the C-HR’s design concept is based on attention to detail in terms of texture, shape, and color.
The driving concept is “”Driving with My Will,”” and the low center of gravity package and high body rigidity provide excellent handling stability and a comfortable ride.
The C-HR has been thoroughly tested on various roads in Europe and other parts of the world, as well as on circuit courses in Japan and overseas, and the C-HR has been given its own unique “”flavor”” in terms of driving performance, including tuning of the steering wheel and shock absorbers. It is truly a sporty SUV model.
In 2019, minor changes will include a 1.2-liter turbocharged (FF) model with a 6-speed manual transmission and the GR SPORT, the GR series by TOYOTA GAZOO Racing.
The person who has been posting images of such a C-HR daringly customized with flamboyance on SNS is Javier Oquendo, a 3D modeler, rendering artist, and automotive designer who lives in Spain.
He has worked on all kinds of customized renderings in the past, and recently designed a body kit for the Toyota Supra and a real-life body kit for the new Nissan Fairlady Z.In the posted images, the front, sides, and rear are each fitted with aero parts with a strong presence.
In the front, the bumper shape has a wide impression, while the sides are partially blacked out, and the tires and wheels, which are slightly shaped like a figure eight, accentuate the C-HR’s presence.
At the rear, the shape of the factory roof spoiler has been changed to improve aerodynamics, and the left and right bumpers have been lowered to the bottom of the vehicle body with aero parts.
Also impressive is the center three-piece muffler with an inverted triangle design similar to that of the Lexus LFA.
Javier Oquendo said, “”Without a doubt, the biggest change in a car is the wheels. Wheels can make a big difference to the exterior of a car,”” commented Javier Oquendo.

When it comes to Toyota’s compact SUVs these days, the Rise, Yaris Cross, and Corolla Cross tend to get the most attention.
Nevertheless, the C-HR, which was the driving force behind Toyota’s compact SUVs, is still stylish to look at today, and with customization, it can be said to have even more presence.
