    Updated 2026-09-08
    Quick Answer

    The 2026 Toyota C-HR is a five-seat compact electric SUV that brings the C-HR name back to the US as a battery-electric vehicle. Every C-HR pairs front and rear motors for 338 combined horsepower and standard all-wheel drive, with a manufacturer-estimated 0-60 MPH time of 4.9 seconds. Its 74.7 kWh battery delivers an EPA-estimated 287 miles of range on the SE and 273 miles on the XSE, and a built-in NACS port lets it charge at Tesla Supercharger stations. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard on both trims. Swope Toyota has 2 XSEs available right now.

    Inside the Toyota C Hr

    How the electric powertrain works

    Every 2026 C-HR sold in the US uses the same setup: a 74.7 kWh lithium-ion battery feeding a front and a rear motor for 338 combined horsepower and standard all-wheel drive. Toyota quotes a 0-60 MPH time of 4.9 seconds, which makes this one of the quickest vehicles the brand sells. The EPA rates the SE at 287 miles of range and 117 MPGe combined; the XSE's 20-inch wheels drop those figures to 273 miles and 112 MPGe. The built-in NACS port charges from 10 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes at a DC fast charger under ideal conditions, with a peak rate of about 150 kW, and the 11 kW onboard charger refills the battery overnight on a Level 2 home circuit. Plug and Charge support is included, so compatible public stations start billing and charging automatically when you plug in.

    Choosing between the SE and XSE

    The lineup is simple: SE at $37,000 and XSE at $39,000 before the $1,450 destination fee. Both trims get the full 338-horsepower AWD powertrain, a 14-inch touchscreen, dual wireless phone chargers, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, blind spot monitoring, and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. The SE rides on 18-inch wheels with cloth and SofTex seats, and it is the range pick at an EPA-estimated 287 miles. The XSE trades range for equipment: 20-inch wheels, sueded seat trim, a surround-view camera, HomeLink, and additional driver assists such as lane change assist, at an EPA-estimated 273 miles. For most buyers the SE is the better value, since the mechanical package is identical and the extra 14 miles of range matter more on road trips than the XSE's styling and convenience upgrades.

    How it compares with the Toyota bZ

    The 2026 C-HR and the Toyota bZ share a platform, the same 74.7 kWh battery in most versions, and the same 338-horsepower AWD powertrain at the top of the bZ range, so the choice comes down to shape and configuration. The bZ is the roomier, more flexible option: it offers front-wheel drive, three trims, and up to an EPA-estimated 314 miles of range in XLE Plus FWD form, and it starts at $34,900, about $2,100 below the C-HR SE. The C-HR counters with standard AWD and 338 horsepower on every unit, sportier tuning, and a coupe-like body that trades some cargo room and rear headroom for style. If you want maximum range, more space, or the lowest entry price, the bZ is the stronger buy. If you want the quickest, most distinctive version of Toyota's compact EV formula, the C-HR is it.

    Pros and Cons

    Pros
    • 338 horsepower and a manufacturer-estimated 4.9-second 0-60 MPH time, quick for the price point
    • All-wheel drive is standard on every trim, where many electric rivals charge extra for a second motor
    • EPA-estimated 287 miles of range on the SE is competitive for a compact electric SUV
    • Native NACS port gives access to the Tesla Supercharger network without an adapter
    • Strong standard equipment: 14-inch touchscreen, dual wireless phone chargers, heated front seats and steering wheel
    • Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 with pre-collision braking, adaptive cruise, and lane tracing is standard
    • EV battery covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles
    Cons
    • No front-wheel-drive or smaller-battery version, so the $37,000 starting price is about $2,100 higher than the related Toyota bZ
    • The XSE's 20-inch wheels cut the EPA-estimated range from 287 to 273 miles
    • DC fast charging peaks around 150 kW, well short of 800-volt rivals like the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and Kia EV6
    • Coupe-style roofline and small rear windows reduce rear headroom and outward visibility
    • No front trunk, and Toyota has not published a US towing rating, so it is a poor fit for trailer duty

    Frequently Asked Questions about the 2026 Toyota C Hr

    The 2026 Toyota C-HR is an all-new, all-electric compact SUV. It returns the C-HR nameplate to the US as a battery-electric vehicle with a 74.7 kWh battery, dual motors producing 338 combined horsepower, standard all-wheel drive, and an EPA-estimated range of up to 287 miles. It seats five and is sold in two trims, SE and XSE.
    The 2026 C-HR SE on 18-inch wheels is EPA-rated at 287 miles of range and 117 MPGe combined. The XSE's 20-inch wheels lower those figures to an EPA-estimated 273 miles and 112 MPGe combined. Real-world range varies with speed, temperature, and climate-control use, so plan on somewhat less in cold weather or at sustained highway speeds.
    On a DC fast charger, the 2026 C-HR charges from 10 to 80 percent in about 30 minutes under ideal conditions, at a peak rate of about 150 kW. At home, the 11 kW onboard charger can refill the battery overnight on a 240-volt Level 2 circuit. A standard 120-volt household outlet works in a pinch but adds range far more slowly.
    Yes. The 2026 C-HR has a built-in NACS charge port, the same connector Tesla uses, so it can plug into compatible Tesla Supercharger stations directly. It also supports Plug and Charge, which starts the session automatically at participating networks. Charging at CCS-equipped public stations requires an adapter.
    Both 2026 C-HR trims share the 338-horsepower AWD powertrain, 14-inch touchscreen, dual wireless chargers, heated front seats, and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. The $37,000 SE rides on 18-inch wheels and is EPA-rated at 287 miles. The $39,000 XSE adds 20-inch wheels, sueded seat trim, a surround-view camera, HomeLink, and extra driver assists such as lane change assist, with range dipping to an EPA-estimated 273 miles.
    No. The original C-HR was a gas-powered subcompact crossover sold in the US from 2018 to 2022, making 144 horsepower with front-wheel drive only; Toyota discontinued it here after 2022. The 2026 C-HR is a completely different vehicle: fully electric, all-wheel drive, and 338 horsepower, built on Toyota's dedicated EV platform shared with the bZ.
    The 2026 C-HR carries Toyota's 36-month/36,000-mile basic warranty and 60-month/60,000-mile powertrain warranty, plus dedicated EV battery coverage for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. ToyotaCare adds no-cost scheduled maintenance for 2 years or 25,000 miles along with roadside assistance.
    The 2026 C-HR SE starts at $37,000 and the XSE at $39,000, before a $1,450 destination fee. That works out to $38,450 and $40,450 delivered. Every C-HR includes AWD and the full 338-horsepower powertrain at both price points, so the $2,000 step to the XSE buys equipment and styling, not performance.
