Toyota reinvented the SUV market in the 90s with the Rav 4, and the new 'C-HR Concept' will try to do the same. Toyota says that the model is coming closer to production and we will see these compact SUVs on the road in a few years.
Its futuristic design is truly revolutionary, giving the car a bold and muscular look. The sleek exterior makes the crossover resemble more of a large sedan or hatchback, but provides the space and comfort of an SUV. The four-door vehicle is also deceptive as the rear door handles are slightly hidden, giving the C-HR the look of a two-door sports car.
The C-HR joins other crossover cars like the Nissan Juke and Honda H-RV as fuel efficient, smaller scale SUVs.
