Not Happy
Had surging and misfiring issues since brand new. Reported to dealer numerous times and am told its normal. Took car for service today and said, can I test a new one. Toyota have finally agreed that my car has a problem. They are trying to find the issue and they cant. I am very upset about the whole situation. I feel like I do not even want the car anymore. Had times when I think the car is going to break down, even on the freeway. I am a Toyota lover and this is the first time I have had a Toyota issue.
Purchased in February 2021 for $41,000.00.

Nice drive
Had this as a loan car. Amazing to drive, comfortable seats, nice interior design, smooth gutsy engine. The only thing I don't like is the rear end look and lack of leg room in the back seats. Good for singles and couples but not a practical family car.

So Many extras!! Love it
I love the look of this new car. I was out looking for something completely different and fell in love. it has so many extras. Auto lights, auto wipers, auto handbrake, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise( which i love so much! no turning it off and on when the car in front is slow), rear cross traffic alert (i had to google this, it tells me when im backing out if a car is coming), blind spot warnings, rear camera, GPS, bluetooth for phone, list goes on and on. So cheap to run compared to my last car, with the option to put in sports mode or ECO.
Purchased in November 2021 at gowans for $34,000.00.

What a great car!
After driving a Ford Fiesta for ten years, my wife and I were in the market for a replacement vehicle. While the Fiesta had been reliable and well suited my wife, we both agreed that it was severely missing the driving assist technologies which are becoming increasingly prevalent in modern vehicles and thus offering a level of safety assistance we were seeking. Therefore, the criteria was to find a smallish “SUV style” vehicle with a suitably large range of driving assist features and technology. After considerable internet research, we narrow...Read more
ed it down to a Hyundai Kona, a Mazda CX3 and the Toyota C-HR. After test driving all three, it became clear that the Toyota C-HR best fitted what we were looking for. The Mazda CX3 had less load capacity and neither of us liked the dashboard. To get the required level of technology we required needed us to select a model which primarily seemed to use a HUD (Heads up display) which neither of us liked. The Hyundai Kona was a worthy contender but was let down by some cheap quality plastics in the interior. It would also prove noticeably higher in the change-over price than the Toyota. My wife and I also felt the Toyota’s seats were more comfortable with my wife complaining about how the Hyundai and Mazda headrests were “pushing her head forward”. Having decided on the vehicle, we were able to source a 2018 runout model in stock at the local dealer with all the features required and at a great changeover price. This was the top of the range KOBA AWD model in Atomic Rush (Ruby Red pearl) paint and with the optional black roof. Please note that in the remainder of this review, I may be referring to features only on the KOBA model that are not on the base model C-HR. We have had the vehicle for a couple of months now and have not regretted our decision one little bit. Specifically: Exterior - Rather futuristic in design, the car is eye-catching from any angle. Fitted with 18” wheels and factory mags (no necessity to change these) there are super bright LED daytime running lights and LED headlights. High beam has an automated control that will automatically dip the lights when there is oncoming traffic. Falseing” is rare. The front indicators have a type of sequential strobing that points in the direction you are turning…a feature I have only seen on some “high end” vehicles. Only disappointment here is that the rear indicators don’t do the same but all rear lights are LED too so they are very bright and clear. The reversing lights are noticeably bright white and this is handy at night…although you also have parking sensors and a rear camera to assist. Handles for the rear two doors are rather high and could be out of reach for small children. They tend to blend in with the vehicle and make it look more like a two door than a four door. Vehicle also has “puddle lamps” giving you a light when stepping out of the vehicle at night. It’s a bit kitsch but these lights also display “Toyota C-HR” on the ground under the mirrors. At least you can turn off these lights if you choose. Interior - Front buckets seats are probably the most comfortable of any car I have ever driver. You are surrounded by lots of plush soft plastics that all feel to be vey high quality. In fact, there is nothing about this car to make you feel that corners have been cut. Doors close with a solid reassuring thud. All windows are electric and feature automatic up and down…normally reserved for the driver window only. Control lighting is a soft blue and well laid out. There is a little bit of a learning curve on the dashboard LED screen as you can navigate left and right and top and down. You soon get to know where things are and you will probably end up leaving it set in one place all the time (Do you really need to keep monitoring the diagram showing where power is being applied to your four wheels and what the G-Rate is as you corner?). The only complaint I have here is to access one of the three driving modes, ECO, NORMAL and SPORT, you must navigate through this screen. A switch maybe on the centre console may have been preferable? Changing the driver modes alters the behaviour of the CVT transmission and air conditioning. Despite being a Constantly Variable Transmission, selecting SPORTS mode will make the transmission feel as if it has seven change points (like a “standard” automatic transmission). Nb. SPORTS mode automatically returns to NORMAL once the engine is turned off. NORMAL and ECO mode remember their selection until you change it yourself. In NORMAL mode, you can also override the automatic and “change gears” by pulling the transmission lever right and then tapping it forward or back to alter the ratio. At 6.1 inches, the Multimedia display for GPS and radio is a little on the small side but has other redeeming features. Even when the GPS is not in use, a female voice will alert you to such things as red light cameras etc. My favourite is when you receive a verbal warning of a school crossing zone ahead yet it will only warn you when the school zone is active…no false alarms for the rest of the day (or night). Only exception is during school holidays as these will be different from state to state. Radio works well and there is a USB socket for attaching a multimedia device (No Apple or Android Car). Strangely, the unit seems a bit dated as it also has a CD player (remember those?) And there is a blue fluorescent digital clock of a type I haven’t seen in cars for about twenty years? GPS works well enough and is updated with traffic alerts so it will offer you alternative routes. Map indicates it has a Q4 2016 update which is a little old for a car purchased new in 2022 but Toyota says that is the latest. There is also a feature to locate not only the nearest garages but also will display the cost of the fuel there. A weather forecasting app is present and you can even bring up the BOM weather radar. Data access is supplied by your bluetooth connected phone.

Love my new CH-R Koba
What an eye turner. I purchased a White one with black roof. Almost got the yellow one, but glad I didn't. Matt at Toyota Croydon couldn't have been more helpful. The turning circle is amazing, and with all the bells and whistles, and yes, like a previous reviewer has said, it feels like I'm driving a Lexus.
