2020 Toyota C-HR Powertrain Improvements
The all-new 2020 Toyota C-HR will continue to use a 2.0-liter four-cylinder unit as the only engine choice. This smaller displacement manages to generate up to 145 horsepower. Its torque is 140 lb-ft. According to Toyota, a new crossover will come with improved driving dynamics. The customers can choose between manual and automatic transmission.

Some rumors are saying the C-HR Hybrid will arrive later this year and it will deliver astonishing mileage. However, this is an uncertain thing to happen this year. On the other hand, the all-wheel-drive setup is certain. Interestingly, C-HR didn’t offer this driving setup before. Now, that will change and the AWD system will be optional.
MSRP And Release Date
The price of the new 2020 Toyota C-HR will start somewhere between $20,000 and $25,000 for the base model. However, upper trims will arrive with a slight price increase. Higher trim levels are updated and that is the main reason for such a move from Toyota.
Whatsoever, all-wheel-drive setup is optional and finally available. The 2020 C-HR Hybrid model is still uncertain but if it happens, it will cost around $30,000. This crossover will hit the dealerships in the last quarter of 2019.
