The Toyota C-HR is back as a sporty AWD electric SUV, but there's a catch

• Toyota reintroduces the C‑HR as a fully electric, all‑wheel‑drive SUV with a sporty, coupe‑like roofline. • The base SE trim starts at $37,000, higher than the $34,900 bZ XLE, reflecting its standard AWD. • Dual‑motor AWD delivers 338 hp and 0‑60 mph in 4.9 seconds, making it a performance‑focused EV. • The interior features a 14‑inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, and 59.5 cu ft cargo with seats folded. • Design cues include Toyota’s hammerhead front, slim LED lights, and an athletic stance that echoes the original C‑HR. • The shorter 6.7‑inch body and 3.9‑inch shorter wheelbase make the C‑HR more compact than the bZ platform.
