    I’m in Australia and I have the 6-speed manual version, great fuel economy (best-5.6 liters per 100K). You get to change the gears when you want to, and in “sport mode”, the C-HR has a little more pep! Also, I find the blind spot monitoring and rear traffic alert systems are annoying, I have them turned off. Parking sensors okay though. But I love my C-HR!

    A sensible review for a change, most presenters read the marketing blurb and churn out the same old nonsense... and you can almost hear themselves thinking how clever they are educating the masses... congratulations on a thoughtful comparison. We're picking up the 1.8 hybrid in March it'll be ideal for punting around London and local roads... the Jag will do the motorway runs while the CH-R will do the donkeywork around town... if your thinking of getting the hybrid this year, make sure you buy it before the new car tax rules go live in April... it's Zero road tax to the 31st of March, if it's registered after that it'll be £100 for the first year rising to £140 thereafter.

    Buying the hybrid has nothing to do with saving the planet for the most. It's for saving money. I've had a 1.5dci Qashqai for the last 3 years which has been excellent, but after driving the Honda CRV and the Toyota C-HR Hybrid, it's the C-HR I've got on order now. The biggest attraction initially though is the Co2 emmissions for company car tax benefit. That is the market it is really aiming at as there are big monthly savings to be made there. As it turned out, it is actually no cheaper than the Qashqai to run over 3 years on my 22k contract because of the poor 10k service intervals as opposed to the Qashqai's 18k intervals, but the C-HR is the best car of the three to drive mainly due to one feature which you omitted, the adaptive cruise control. I use cruise all the time and that is such a great feature. Thanks for the review though.

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад +2

      Thank you for watching and commenting. It is very interesting to hear your view from the company car perspective. Yes, you are right, sadly the adaptive cruise control was lost in the edit as I did not have the opportunity to use it properly on that day. However, thank you for the input and the information. Much appreciated!

    • @julierussell4916
      @julierussell4916 7 лет назад

      I am just looking at the 1.8 hybrid for my new company vehicle, I do do a lot of motorway driving and also a lot of urban, I really do like the greener aspect alongside the low Co2 for BIK, I'm not too worried about speed these days with all the new speed laws and fines, plus I spend half my time on the motorway stuck in traffic for various reasons anyway!! I am just concerned about the motorway mileage you realistically get as I don't want it costing me to go to work!! Can you give any insight, also do you carry much around with you in the boot for work? Just wondering how it fares with a bit of weight in the boot. Appreciate any feedback you can give. Thanks!

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад

      It's like anything, it depends on your driving style. Being stuck in traffic means you can pootle along on electric power, acceleration and deceleration charges the battery. These cars are well put together and I do not see you being disappointed with the mileage if you drive carefully. Of course the figures advertised are rubbish as they are in test (lab) conditions often just an engine running on a bench rather than actually in a car. The real mpg is around 10-15 less than the brochures so I would expect 60-65mpg for careful driving

    • @RichardHowesPhotography
      @RichardHowesPhotography 7 лет назад +2

      Hi Julie,
      When I had the 1.5dci Qashqai, I used to average 49mpg over everything. With the C-HR I am averaging 53mpg. What I have found is when I thrash the car, it sucks a lot more juice than Qashqai ever did, but when I drive like Miss Daisy, it gives me a far great mpg than the Qashqai ever did. My commute to work is 21 miles which is mostly A-roads and a about 5 miles through urban areas. The greatest MPG I have had over my commute is 65mpg in the last 2500 miles. It's nearly always only me in the car, but I do carry a fair bit in my boot as it's normally a third full as a minimum.
      I do also occasionally drive a 220 mile round trip on just the A1 and M62. I find at 70mph it's pretty good and you will get 52-55mpg no problem, but I normally sit with my cruise on at 80mph or 85mph depending on the time of day and that costs me 5 to 7 mpg.

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад +1

      Great response! It seems I was not far out. I haven't driven a CH-R over a longer distance so glad you could offer a realistic figure. Thank you!

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  6 лет назад

      Great! Glad we could help confirm your decision. Hope you continue to like the car. Did you go for the 1800 Hybrid or 1.2T?

  • @mrpmj00
    @mrpmj00 7 лет назад +1

    I test drove it and while its CVT was better than Nissan and Kia, CVT needs more frequent maintenance and is less reliable.
    I loved the C-HR design but it really needs more power. I heard that a manual transmission is offered outside of the US which would have encouraged me to consider it.
    Ideally, it needs the Camry's 2.5 litre engine and needs a manual transmission version and a sunroof, and Apple Carplay.

    brilliant review, just subbed, drove this hybrid model yesterday, I had the same issue as you highlighted regarding resting elbow and the other was the rear view mirror is over bulky which I thought blocked my front vision, other wise a super model. thanks for review

  • @richierich9761
    @richierich9761 7 лет назад +13

    Perhaps an explanation of how a CVT works would have helped you understand it and we could have avoided the "goes to 5,500rpm" comments. A lot of these "where technology is heading" features have been around for a long time ie Park Assist was an option on Skoda's back in 2008 the all the other stuff is widely used and has been for a number of years, its hardly new, and the features unique to Toyota were largely ignored.

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад +4

      Yes, I do understand park assist has been around for very long time, featured on TopGear many years ago; but it has not been common place on cars in general until very recently. If the video was focused on technology it would become very boring very quickly. The point of "Where technology is heading" is to imply more common on a wider range of cars today, rather than a rare occurrence. I aim to make amusing, not-technology flooded video's...but I cannot please everyone of course. Thank you for the comment. Some are noted for future videos.

    Hi Mark, thanks for posting this review on the Toyota CHR !. This is one of the better reviews I've come across so far which demonstrates the performances of the two different engines. Here in Australia, the CHR will be released for sale sometime later this month (February), I really like the style, especially in the unique Radiant Green colour. I'm actually thinking of buying one !. We will only be getting the 1.2 litre turbo engine, and not the hybrid. I was really interested to see how the 1.2l turbo engine performs, as the CHR is not a light car for its class, weighing in around 1500 kilos (from what I've read), and an engine that only produces 85kw, its power to weight ratio does not appear to be very good compared to other SUV's in its class. I understand that in the UK and Europe, you get the CHR's that are manufactured in Turkey. Where as here in Australia we get the CHR's that are built in Japan. I really hope our CHR's include the high quality JBL sound system like you do in the UK. On another note when using the Park Assist, is it 100% guaranteed not to impact another vehicle nearby ?. If it does, I could imagine many owners would send Toyota the invoice for the repair costs involved. :-)

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад +1

      Hi, glad you liked the review. I understand the Park Assist is excellent and although it is claimed to park in the space provided (which is the reason the car monitors the space it drives past first); I do wonder if the car was dirty if this would affect the park assist. Like a lot of things, they go through rigorous testing before considering including such a feature on a mainstream car, but I guess with all electrics, they can go wrong.....

    The Door Trim, that is mentioned, is NOT an issue. Just raise up the
    seat a little & I am More than pleased. My arm, is comfortable on
    the top.
    Any niggles, can be rectified, without hardly any effort. I went for the
    Excel. 1.2 Turbo. It has nice silver edges on dash board & pillars,
    NOT purple. The seats are half Cloth & Leather & very, very
    smart & very comfortable. Plus the wheels, on the Excel, are better,
    more spokes. The Roof is NOT black, I am so pleased. It actually costs
    about £995 less tan the Dynamic. Cost me £24,700 with add ons, like
    Front Silver Light surrounds = Chrome Pack. Side Chrome & Rear Boot
    finish. Just one niggle. Best not install the Chrome pack in winter, as
    parts of mine are coming unstuck, due to bad cold, wet weather, which
    has made some parts lift away. It can be remedied, carefully, with
    drying out & a Hair dryer. Great handling & I am still to find
    out about economy. If anyone is concerned about no CD player. I
    purchased one portable unit from Argos (Anti Shock) used a good cable,
    to plug in to AV socket. OK you will have to use 2 x AA Batteries, you
    will not be able to change the lists, music. But it hides safely away in
    the Glove Compartment, if you really want to use it, with the UP &
    DOWN Volume Controls, from the Dash Board Screen & the Steering
    Wheel. Super Dooper. £17.99 & 2.99 for wire. "Pleasantly Surprised
    & Very Happy" There is always another BETTER way to GO with
    TOYOTA. £20.04 Per Month Fully Comprehensive Insurance. That is great
    safe driving. Try: www.GoCompare.com

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад

      Great response from an owner! Thank you for your input. I understand your point about the seat but for me, that would make it too high for me. Glad you are enjoying the car, like I said I can perhaps see myself with one as a daily driver in the future and for me as a current Mustang and Mercedes E-class owner, I like power and handling, with comfort. That certainly has the comfort, although I would like to see a 2 litre turbo petrol option.

      No they offer different engines for different markets. US and Canada get the 2,0 NA engine, because fuel consumption is considered less important in those markets.

    I believe it has a constant variable transmission.If it does the only thing it's good for is...you can do the same top speed in reverse as forward. CVT gearbox is ancient Remember a DAF 66 car.As for the hybrids,infact all hybrids...they are excempt from MOT emission testing even with Co2 from the exhaust.Makes u think why have a hybrid.

    Bro what the hell I looking in to this model over here in the states and it’s a new model for 2018 here but it’s striped down compared to your uk version . No leather seats no hybrid no turbo . Just a 2.0 144 hp. Wonder why Toyota doing this . I also love to know why no AWD as a option. Awd is very much need here in New England. Other thing no navigation and rear camera is displayed on the mirror not the screen on the us version. I wondering if there just testing the waters and will add more options for 2019

    • @motorsforthemasses
      @motorsforthemasses  7 лет назад

      WOW! That is a poor...if I dare say 'range' Like you say perhaps they are testing the water although the hybrid seems popular in the US. However according to Car&driver, Toyota seems to think the demand for a hybrid is not in the US. Do they think everyone still wants big V8's there? blog.caranddriver.com/toyota-says-turbo-and-hybrid-c-hr-wont-come-to-u-s-admits-faster-version-is-possible/

    Crappy continuously variable transmission (CVT).Had on my DAF in the 1970`s.

    auto to make.I would not touch it with a bargepole.
