When the Toyota C-HR first entered the market, it became a milestone model for Toyota, bringing the brand closer to an audience that values unconventional design, distinctive style, and Toyota’s renowned quality and reliability. Today, its second generation continues this successful formula in the best possible way, offering even more solutions to prospective buyers.
The new Toyota C-HR Plug-in Hybrid 220 incorporates pioneering technology that enhances the efficiency and electric range of its system, particularly for urban driving — addressing the needs of European customers. Specifically, when used exclusively on city roads or in urban environments, it achieves a pure electric driving range of between 97 and 106 kilometers (WLTP EAER City), depending on vehicle specifications.
The Predictive Efficient Drive system uses data and information from previous journeys to optimize the operation of the PHEV system, delivering greater efficiency. The system analyzes road and traffic conditions via cloud navigation, combining this with continuous learning of the driver’s usual routes and driving style.
The vehicle automatically switches between hybrid and electric modes to maximize electric range, particularly within low-emission zones.
Another feature of the Predictive Efficient Drive system, called Predictive Deceleration Support, helps reduce energy loss during deceleration, thereby improving fuel economy. By using information from past trips and navigation data, the system identifies points where deceleration is likely and automatically increases engine braking force.
