Toyota has introduced its latest innovation in the electric vehicle market: the compact C-HR+ electric crossover. Revealed by the Japanese automaker, this stylish coupe-like SUV boasts a top-tier power output of 343 horsepower and is set to hit European markets by late 2025. While it draws inspiration from the existing Toyota C-HR, the C-HR+ stands out as a distinct model, built from the ground up on Toyota’s dedicated e-TNGA electric vehicle platform with a unique body and interior design.

Bold Design Meets Practicality
The Toyota C-HR+ is designed to make a statement. Its sleek, sloping roofline at the rear, intricate body lines, and high ground clearance give it a dynamic and modern look. The signature Toyota lighting style features a continuous light strip across the headlights and taillights, adding to its bold aesthetic. Measuring 4,520 mm in length with a 2,750 mm wheelbase, the C-HR+ offers ample interior space for both front and rear passengers. Meanwhile, its 416-liter cargo capacity ensures practicality for everyday use.
Power and Range Options
Toyota is offering the C-HR+ with two battery options to cater to a variety of drivers. The smaller 57.7 kWh battery is exclusive to the front-wheel-drive (FWD) model, while a larger 77 kWh battery is available for both FWD and all-wheel-drive (AWD) variants. The top-spec AWD version, equipped with the 77 kWh battery, delivers an impressive 343 horsepower—enough to accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in approximately 5.2 seconds. This configuration also provides a maximum range of up to 373 miles (600 km) based on the WLTP standard.
For those opting for the FWD models, the 57.7 kWh battery produces 167 horsepower, while the 77 kWh version ups the output to 224 horsepower. Both battery options support fast charging at up to 150 kW, making it convenient for drivers on the go.
Cutting-Edge Technology and Safety
Every C-HR+ comes equipped with Toyota’s advanced T-Mate features, including the latest Toyota Safety Sense suite of active safety systems. Standard equipment includes a 14-inch multimedia touchscreen, blind-spot monitoring, and adaptive high-beam headlights, ensuring a blend of convenience and security for all trims.
A New Contender in the Electric SUV Market
Toyota positions the C-HR+ as a bold, stylish, and high-performing competitor in the growing electric C-SUV segment. While its European debut is confirmed for late 2025, U.S. consumers will be eager to see if this electrified crossover makes its way across the Atlantic. With its striking design, versatile powertrain options, and Toyota’s reputation for reliability, the C-HR+ could be a game-changer in the compact electric SUV space.
For now, Toyota continues to expand its electric lineup, and the C-HR+ is a clear sign of the brand’s commitment to blending performance, innovation, and sustainability in the ever-evolving world of EVs.
