New Toyota C-HR Unveiling Europe’s Top-Performing Compact SUV with 197HP Power
ByPawaniOn September 29, 2023, Toyota’s German subsidiary made an exciting announcement as they started accepting reservations for the highly anticipated “new C-HR.” This latest addition to Toyota’s lineup is a striking compact SUV that is set to turn heads with its innovative features and unique design.
The C-HR has an interesting history, stemming from the original “TOYOTA C-HR Concept” unveiled at the Paris Motor Show in September 2014. It was later introduced in December 2016 as a “coupe-style compact SUV,” boasting a design closely resembling the initial concept model. It quickly gained popularity in Japan and became a sought-after choice among SUV enthusiasts. However, the first-generation C-HR’s journey in Japan is coming to an end, with production and sales scheduled to conclude in late July 2023. As for the second-generation “new C-HR,” currently announced and exhibited overseas, including in Germany, details about its availability in Japan remain uncertain, and it is expected to be an exclusive overseas model.
The world will get its first look at the new C-HR in Europe on June 26, 2023. The compact SUV boasts a body size of 4,360 mm in length, 1,830 mm in width, and stands at 1,558-1,564 mm in height, making it notably compact for an SUV. The exterior design is inspired by the “C-HR Prologue” concept car released in December 2022, presenting a bold and daring appearance that Toyota describes as a “concept car that can be driven on public roads.”
Moving inside the vehicle, the interior features a sporty and sophisticated finish with a high-quality feel. An exciting addition is the ambient lighting system, which not only adds to the aesthetic appeal but also serves as a safety feature. The ambient light can be selected from a palette of up to 64 colors and can be programmed to change hue with the passage of time, creating a seamless transition from bright daytime colors to soothing evening tones.
The European market, including Germany, will have access to a variety of powertrain options. The German model will offer a hybrid (FF only) with a 1.8-liter engine and an electric motor, delivering a maximum system output of approximately 140 horsepower. Additionally, there will be a 2-liter engine paired with two motors in the front and rear, providing a maximum system output of approximately 197 horsepower. The lineup includes two hybrid types (FF and AWD) and a plug-in hybrid model with a 2-liter engine.
To cater to various preferences, the new C-HR will be available in three different grades: “Team Deutschland,” “Lounge Premiere,” and “GR SPORT Premiere.” “Team Deutschland” will feature both the 140hp hybrid and the 197hp hybrid, “Lounge Premiere” will exclusively offer the 197hp hybrid, while “GR SPORT Premiere” will introduce the PHEV model.
Buyers will also have the option to choose from a selection of seven striking body colors, including Marlin Gray Metallic, Platinum White Pearl, Dark Amethyst Metallic, White, Dark Turquoise Blue Metallic, Carmine Red Metallic, and Silver Metallic.
The starting prices for this exciting compact SUV begin at 38,190 euros, which is approximately 6 million yen, for the base “Team Deutschland” 140 horsepower hybrid version. On the higher end, the top-of-the-line “GR SPORT Premiere” PHEV model comes in at 48,990 euros, translating to around 7.5 million yen. With its unique design, innovative features, and a range of powertrain options, the “new C-HR” is set to make a splash in the German market and beyond. So, don’t miss the opportunity to reserve yours today and be among the first to experience this exceptional compact SUV.

Toyota’s new Prius has a surprising trick
Toyota’s new “Prius” has a surprising trick! Two interior colors “Black/Red” have a big “difference”!
The difference between the two interior colors of the new Toyota Prius
Two interior colors are available for the high-end grade “”Z”” of the new Toyota Prius.
There is a difference between the two interior colors. What are they?This part glows blue.? What is the difference between the two interior colors? Compare the two!
What is the unexpected trick of Toyota’s new “”Prius””?
The first generation Prius was introduced in the 1997 model year. Since then, it has been repeatedly renewed with the times, and on November 16, 2022, the new model, the fifth generation, was introduced.
Under the concept of “”Hybrid Reborn,”” the new Prius has evolved into an emotional Prius with a design that makes you fall in love at first sight and a driving experience that makes you fall in love with it.
Among these, the high-end grade Z offers a choice of two interior colors: “”Gradient Black (hereinafter referred to as “”Black””)”” and “”Mature Red (hereinafter referred to as “”Red””),”” which is available as a free option.
What are the differences between the two?
If the basic black color is selected, black and dark gray are the basic interior colors.
The instrument panel stitching and seat upholstery are in a nuanced steel color, with a light beige accent color.
The instrument panel also features a “”blue”” illumination. The standard grade “”G”” also glows blue.
On the other hand, if the optional red color is selected, the interior tone color is black.
The instrument panel and seat upholstery are in an unadorned red color. The contrast between the base color, black, and the subdued red applied to various parts of the interior is striking.
The red color is also used for the seat upholstery, providing a sporty and powerful accent.
The instrument panel also has a red illumination, and by choosing red as the interior color, the design has a more sporty feel.
In particular, the difference between the blue and red instrument panel illumination can be said to be enough to change the atmosphere of the interior.
This illumination not only decorates the interior as ambient light, but is also used for the first time by Toyota as an “”illumination notification system.
The system alerts the driver when the vehicle ahead of the vehicle is stopped, or when the Proactive Driving Assist (PDA) detects an active object while the vehicle is in motion.
Note that if the interior color is to be red, it must be specified at the time of order.
The new Prius lineup includes two patterns with quite different atmospheres, even when looking at the interior color alone.
With the PHEV model scheduled to go on sale in March, it can be said that the new Prius will continue to attract attention.

New “Prius” Already 2 Years Waiting!
Toyota has announced the world premiere of the new “Prius” on November 16, 2022.
Dealers have already been inundated with inquiries, but what is the current situation at dealerships in terms of quotes, advance reservations, and delivery dates?“No center meter!”The drastically changed interior of the new “Prius” in 39 images.
Toyota’s new “Prius PHEV” (5th generation)
Under the concept of “Hybrid Reborn,”the new Prius has evolved for the first time in seven years into an emotional model with a design that makes you fall in love at first sight and a driving experience that makes you fall in love with it.
The new Hybrid Reborn features a lower center of gravity than the previous model, large 19-inch tires, and a sporty interior with a black base and red interior coloring in some areas.
In addition, the new Prius is packed with the latest technology, including a new-generation hybrid system and the latest Toyota Safety Sense preventive safety features as standard equipment.
As of now, Toyota has announced that the new Prius will go on sale this winter, with the PHEV to follow in the spring of 2023, and no official information has been released regarding specific pricing, official sales start date, or delivery date.
On the other hand, since November 16, when the new Prius was unveiled for the first time in the world, dealers have already been inundated with inquiries, and it can be said that many users “”can’t wait.
So, what is the current status of each dealership? (All as of December 2, 2022)
A staff member at a dealership in Tokyo had the following to say.
We are not yet able to receive quotations, but are accepting pre-orders.
We are told it will be around late December before we can get a quote.
We have received a great number of inquiries about the new Prius, including customers who want to switch to the new model.
However, as for the delivery date, we are told that it will take nearly a year, and if orders are placed after the new year, it will take nearly two years, so we are unable to give a definite delivery date.”
A staff member at a dealership in Aichi Prefecture also stated, “Estimates are expected around the end of December.
I think we can make an estimate as early as the end of December.
While we receive many inquiries from customers about catalogs and quotations, we do not make reservations in advance and have yet to receive any information from them.
At present, it seems that no quotes can be obtained because no information on pricing or other details has been sent to the dealers. However, some stores are making advance reservations on a first-come, first-served basis.
The number of shops is limited.
In addition, a staff member at a dealer in Kyoto Prefecture said, “”Our store does not receive information such as your address and name.
At our store, we accept advance reservations in the form of asking for your name and address, and signing the contract as soon as the price is known.
However, even if you make a reservation, we cannot guarantee that you will be able to get on the car immediately.
According to what we have heard, the production volume itself is small, and the manufacturer allocates a fixed number of units to each dealership, so we may only be able to accept reservations for a few units at a time at each store.
Users have already voiced their opinions about the new Prius reservations.
I made a reservation! On the other hand, some users have given up due to the long delivery time, such as “I told the dealer, but I couldn’t get a quote and they said delivery would be next fall..”, “I gave up when I heard delivery would be after April 2024”, “I heard there was already a two-year wait for the new Prius pre-order”, and so on. Some users have given up due to the long delivery time.
In addition to the still continuing new Corona virus, the shortage of semiconductors is already resulting in significantly longer delivery times for cars, so it seems that it is a good idea for those who are thinking about purchasing the new Prius to move quickly.
