Toyota to invest Rs 3,300 crore for a new factory in Karnataka

The evolution of an icon: The new Toyota C-HR combines an extraordinary design with the most modern technologies. Inspired by the vision of a “concept car for the road” and the unconventional look of its predecessor, the new Toyota C-HR dares to be different. The first Toyota C-HR, launched in 2017, sold more than 840,000 units in Europe. With its unconventional design, convincing quality and high fun factor, it developed into a successful model for Toyota. The new Toyota C-HR was developed specifically to meet the needs of European customers. The vehicle was designed and developed locally and is also produced in Europe. During development, Toyota engineers used extensive real-time data from drivers across Europe. High-quality features are part of a comprehensive and personalized driving experience that puts the customer at the center. These include the flush door handles, the 64-color ambient lighting and the panoramic roof with infrared-reducing low-e coating. Thanks to innovative technologies and comprehensive further development of driving dynamics, the new Toyota C-HR offers confident and comfortable driving behavior. The various hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains use Toyota's latest hybrid technology to combine more power with an engaging and efficient driving experience. In addition to its efficient powertrains, the new Toyota C-HR reduces its environmental impact through the use of new recycled and animal-free materials, through advanced technologies to reduce vehicle weight and by reducing CO2 emissions in production. The first customer vehicles will be delivered from January 2024. Delivery of the C-HR Plug-in Hybrid will begin in March 2024.
