The 2020 Toyota C-HR’s updated styling is less polarizing, and it now includes both Apple and Android smartphone support.
Pros Bold looks Lots of safety tech Soft ride Decent value
Cons Still some weird angles Dungeon-like rear seat Light on power So-so mpg
Toyota's smallest SUV receives a light styling refresh for 2020 in the form of an updated front bumper, grille, and headlamps, as well as new wheel designs. The base LE trim now comes standard with Android Auto capability, LED headlamps, and SiriusXM satellite radio; mid-range XLE models now come with front seatback pockets and sun-visor extensions. An eight-way power-adjustable driver's seat and adaptive headlamp system are now part of the Limited model's standard equipment list. The C-HR can be had in two new exterior colors: Supersonic Red and Hot Lava; a contrasting silver-colored roof is also now an option.
Pros Look-at-me styling, cheeky interior design, plenty of standard features.
Cons Infuriatingly slow, cramped back seat, rivals offer more cargo space.
Toyota has finally joined the booming city SUV segment, with a high-riding Yaris available with petrol or hybrid power.
Pros Roomy cabin and cargo hold Long list of advanced safety tech Relatively fuel-efficient Can run on regular unleaded
Cons High price compared to most rivals Long-ish emergency braking distance for such a small and light car Base-model's halogen headlights could be better
Pros Hybrid stuff works well, some interesting ideas here
Cons Pre-prod car's ride not great, occasionally sluggish performance
