Toyota's C-HR electric hatchback starts at $38,135
"We already knew that the C-HR won't be as affordable as we originally thought, coming in at $38,135 (including destination fee) for the base SE trim. That's a lot more than the $25,000-$30,000 some experts were expecting, but definitely a lot less than the $50,000 average transaction price for a new vehicle (or $55,000 for average EV). By comparison, the original gas-engine version of the C-HR started at $22,000, while the hybrid model sells for around $41,000."
"Toyota says is releasing a variety of powertrain options for the C-HR, including hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and hydrogen fuel cell (only available in California and Hawaii). The exterior design stands out with its "hammerhead" front end and a wide, planted stance that emphasizes its sportiness. Built on the dedicated e-TNGA platform, the C-HR offers a low center of gravity that enhance the drive quality. A dual-motor all-wheel-drive system comes standard, delivering 338 horsepower and a 0-60 mph acceleration in just 4.9 seconds."
"The SE trim offers an EPA-estimated range of up to 287 miles, while the XSE trim, equipped with larger 20-inch wheels, provides an estimated 273 miles. A NACS charging port enables owners to charge at Tesla's Supercharger network. Under ideal conditions, the 74.7 kWh battery can charge from 10-80 percent in approximately 30 minutes. The inside features a 14-inch touchscreen running the latest Toyota Audio Multimedia system, which includes wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto."
Toyota is expanding its EV lineup with an all-electric C-HR hatchback priced from $38,135 for the base SE trim. Multiple powertrain options include hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and a hydrogen fuel-cell variant limited to California and Hawaii. The C-HR rides on the e-TNGA platform with a low center of gravity and standard dual-motor AWD producing 338 horsepower and 0-60 mph in 4.9 seconds. EPA-estimated ranges are up to 287 miles (SE) and 273 miles (XSE with 20-inch wheels). The 74.7 kWh battery supports NACS Supercharger access and 10-80% charging in roughly 30 minutes. Interior features a 14-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
