Named after the smaller hybrid electric Toyota C-HR, the C-HR+ is a larger vehicle built on a separate e-TNGA platform shared with the bZ4X.{{Cite web |title=The Toyota C-HR+ Has a Confusing Name |url=https://www.motor1.com/news/753208/toyota-chr-plus-debut-specs/ |access-date=2025-05-15 |website=Motor1.com |language=en}}

Overview

The design of the C-HR+ was previewed by the bZ Compact SUV concept car presented in 2022 in Europe and the US.{{Cite press release |title=A Nod to the Near Future: Toyota bZ Compact SUV Concept Revealed in U.S. |date=2022-11-17 |publisher=Toyota |location=US |url=https://pressroom.toyota.com/a-nod-to-the-near-future-toyota-bz-compact-suv-concept-revealed-in-u-s/ |access-date=2022-11-17}} With the production version, the model drops the bZ moniker in favour of an existing nameplate, the C-HR, as Toyota abandoned its bZ naming strategy for battery electric vehicles.

The C-HR+ will be offered with both front-wheel drive and all-wheel drive configurations. The single-motor version, paired with a 57.7 kWh battery, produces {{convert|123|kW|hp PS|0|abbr=on}}. When equipped with the larger 77 kWh battery, output increases to {{convert|165|kW|hp PS|0|abbr=on}}. Depending on the variant and trim level, the estimated maximum driving range is up to {{convert|600|km|mi|0|abbr=on}} based on the WLTP cycle.{{Cite web |last=Allan |first=Matt |date=2025-03-11 |title=Toyota C-HR+ EV arrives with 338bhp and 373-mile range |url=https://evpowered.co.uk/news/toyota-c-hr-ev-arrives-with-338bhp-and-373-mile-range/ |access-date=2025-05-15 |website=EV Powered |language=en-GB}}
