What a used Toyota C-HR costs in Ireland, how it does at the NCT, what goes wrong and what it costs to fix. Based on 1,124 for sale right now.
Our take on the Toyota C-HR
A 2023 Toyota C-HR typically advertises at €28,000 and a 2018 one at €18,200, so it loses roughly 8% of its value a year at that age, slower than most cars. It's sold here mainly as a petrol. At the NCT, the 2016–2022 cars do better than other cars the same year. The 1.8 hybrid is the most common engine (86% of those with a known engine), and it usually lasts around 450k km.
