2018 Toyota C-HR is the Scion that should have been
With the death of Scion (RIP), Toyota needed to make a change to its growing lineup.The tC and xB would go the way of the dodo, while the iA and iM would be rebadged and rebranded.But most importantly, the C-HR CUV concept we saw at last year's Los Angeles Auto Show would now find a forever home under its parent marque.
Toyota Launches US-Spec 2018 C-HR Compact Crossover
Photo GalleryVideoThe small crossover that would be a Scion, if the sub-brand were still alive, made its Stateside debut at the LA Auto Show eight months after its launch at Geneva.Slotting below the RAV-4 and set to take on the likes of Honda's HR-V , the C-HR is essentially the same car as the one sold in the rest of the world.Well, make thatthe same, as in the US it will be solely available with a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter four with 144 HP mated to a CVT transmission driving the front wheels.So, no 1.2 turbo or hybrid for this side of the pond, at least for now.That "compact" label is a bit of a misnomer, too, as actually the C-HR sits between sub-compact and compact crossovers.The CH-R will be available next spring in two grade levels.
