Toyota updates the European C-HR GR Sport for its 10th anniversary. The crossover gains an Onyx Grey matte finish and 20-inch wheels. Hybrid and plug-in hybrid versions carry over, with GR-tuned chassis. The Toyota C-HR landed in 2016 and has moved more than 2.1 million units worldwide in the ten years since, which is a lot of cars for a shape that split opinion when it showed up. Toyota is marking the anniversary with a handful of changes to the GR Sport trim in Europe, none of them structural, all of them aimed at keeping it on shopping lists a little longer. The second-generation car arrived in 2023 and still hasn’t been through a facelift. The European version has almost nothing to do with the US-spec C-HR, which is a slightly larger electric crossover sold in Europe under the C-HR+ badge. Same three letters, two different cars. Instead of a battery electric setup, the European C-HR is available with hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains, sharing the TNGA-C architecture with the Corolla, Corolla Cross, and Prius. It also rocks a different exterior design with what could be the smallest rear windows in a five-door production model. Matte Paint And 20s For its 10th anniversary, the C-HR GR Sport gains a new Onyx Grey matte color, combined with black accents on the front bumper, roof and the entire rear section of the body. The stealthy shade is joined by a new set of 20-inch alloy wheels finished in matte grey, which are larger than the previous 19-inch shoes. The cabin retains the GR Sport touches but the head-up display is now part of the standard equipment. Options include a panoramic sunroof and a JBL premium sound system. Three Powertrains, No Extra Power The C-HR GR Sport is available with the standard self-charging hybrid and plug-in hybrid forms. The entry-level 1.8-liter hybrid produces 138 hp (103 kW / 140 PS), while the more potent 2.0-liter hybrid delivers 178 hp (132 kW / 180 PS).

The plug-in model also features a geo-fencing system, automatically switching it to EV mode when entering low-emission zones in European cities. While the GR Sport doesn’t get any performance upgrades over the regular C-HR, it does offer sharper handling. This is courtesy of the GR-tuned Frequency Selective Control (FSC) shock absorbers, a dynamic damper on the front strut, and a recalibrated electric power steering.

Besides the additions to the flagship trim, the rest of the lineup has been simplified, comprising the Mid, Mid+, and High grades. Unsurprisingly, Europe has done most of the heavy lifting on sales, accounting for 1.2 million of the 2.1 million C-HRs delivered globally. Its closest rivals are the VW T-Roc and the Hyundai Kona.
