140-Character Blurb

The 2026 Toyota C-HR is an all-new, fully electric subcompact SUV with up to 290 miles of range.

Cons

Power, Ride, and Handling

Driving Impressions

When it comes to performance, Toyota is promising big things for the 2026 C-HR. How about zero to 60 mph in around 5 seconds, according to Toyota’s stopwatch? That puts it in the same league as the Volvo EX30. Both are about a second quicker than the current bZ4X. We don’t strictly scrutinize such things; however, those that do place the Kona Electric in the neighborhood of 7 seconds to make the standstill to 60 mph run, which is about the same as the Kia Niro EV.
Producing 338 horsepower, the electric powertrain is more powerful than the bZ4X or the Kona Electric or the Kia Niro EV. The EX30 with dual motors delivers 422 hp.
We have nothing but praise for the TGNA architecture that underpins many a Toyota vehicle, including the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/prius/">Prius</a> and <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/camry/">Camry</a>, among a host of others. We expect the C-HR to provide satisfactory driving dynamics and better-than-average ride quality.
Paddle shifters on the steering wheel allow the driver to pick among four degrees of regenerative braking. We suspect this is basically the same arrangement found in the bZ4X; consequently, we don’t expect one-pedal driving in the C-HR either. Both the Niro EV and Kona Electric do allow for one-pedal operation. All-wheel drive is standard.
<h3>Range and Charging</h3>
A critical number for any EV is its range, and Toyota pins the C-HR’s number at 290 miles. Not too shabby at all, especially when compared to the Kona Electric’s maximum of 261 miles, and that’s an upgrade that comes with the more expensive SEL trim.
Good news for future C-HR owners is that it will come with a North American Charging System (NACS) port, the Tesla-style connector that&#8217;s becoming the industry standard. Such a charger can take the battery from a 10% charge to 80% in around 30 minutes, quicker than the Kona Electric or the Niro EV.

Familiar Face

Exterior

Although the new C-HR&#8217;s shape is a bit of a throwback to the earlier C-HR, its face is Toyota’s current signature hammerhead design. LED front lights and a chiseled backside also contribute to the overall curb appeal.

FAQs

Our Favorite Features And Tech

Favorite Features

Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto 
Standard in both trims, the ability to integrate phones into the infotainment system without using a cable is wonderfully convenient.
Toyota Safety Sense 
This set of advanced safety features is standard in every C-HR. It includes forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking, plus the ability to detect not only pedestrians but also cyclists (in low-light conditions), motorcyclists (in daylight), and guardrails. Blind-spot monitoring is also standard.
Wi-Fi Connect 
An available subscription offers 4G connectivity for up to five devices, essentially turning the C-HR into a Wi-Fi hotspot.
Hey, Toyota 
Luxury German cars have had this kind of thing for years, but the C-HR comes with a digital assistant summoned by saying, “Hey, Toyota.” Then a command given in natural speech — like “lower the cabin temperature by 5 degrees” — is obeyed.
Front &amp; Rear Parking Assist w/Braking 
Standard in every C-HR, this system senses obstacles in front of or behind the C-HR when parking. Not only does it sound an alert, but it also automatically brakes the vehicle. We find it a real benefit when slotting into a crowded parking space.
Power Liftgate 
We appreciate things that make our lives easier. Thus, a power liftgate like the one standard on every new C-HR takes all the strain out of opening and closing the rear hatch.

Efficient Interior

Interior

Toyota has yet to release any interior measurements other than cargo space behind the second-row seat, which is 25.4 cubic feet. This basically matches the Kona Electric. Because the C-HR is more than half a foot longer than the Kona, with a wheelbase exceeding the Kona&#8217;s by more than 4 inches, we have to think that, unless Toyota has mismanaged the passenger space, there should be measurably more legroom in the C-HR’s passenger compartment than in the Kona’s. However, we’ll need to wait and see.
Commanding the instrument panel is a 14-inch infotainment touchscreen that oversees the Toyota Audio Multimedia system with its 6-speaker audio system. Wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto is also standard. The driver faces a fully digital gauge cluster. Fabric with SofTex trim will cover the seats in the SE, with synthetic suede and SofTex trim covering the XSE seats. The split 60/40 second-row folds flat with the cargo floor.
The standard features include a power liftgate, rain-sensing wipers, heated front seats and steering wheel, two wireless smartphone chargers, three USB-C ports, and lots more.

KBB Editors' Overview

The 2026 Toyota C-HR is a fully electric subcompact SUV with an estimated range of 290 miles. Although it shares a platform with the Toyota bZ compact electric SUV, it is somewhat smaller by every measure. Crammed full of advanced technology, including the latest in advanced safety tech, the C-HR is the latest return from Toyota’s ongoing electrification strategy.

Optional Equipment

Pricing - Dynamic

We expect the 2026 Toyota C-HR to start around $35,000. This estimate is based on the compact <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/bz4x/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Toyota bZ4X&#8217;s</a> current starting price of $38,465, as well as the base prices of competitors.

</table>

Pricing - Static

We think we could be quite happy with the SE grade. It’s well equipped with cutting-edge infotainment tech, advanced safety/driver-assist technology, and highly sought-after convenience features. We admit shelling out the extra cash for the XSE has serious benefits like a digital rearview mirror (camera as a mirror), lane-changing assist, and a Panoramic View Monitor. However, we could easily live with the more affordable SE.
If you somehow missed it, the Toyota bZ is a larger EV SUV alternative for those who need more interior space and want to stay within the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/">Toyota</a> brand.
Occupying roughly the same space as the C-HR is the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/kona-electric/">Hyundai Kona Electric</a>. The two are well matched in price, dedicated cargo space, and up-to-date gadgetry. Other alternatives include the pricier <a href="https://www.kbb.com/kia/niro-ev/">Kia Niro EV</a> and the higher-end <a href="https://www.kbb.com/volvo/ex30/">Volvo EX30</a>.

Battery and Efficiency

Under the Hood

A 74.7-kWh battery feeds a dual-motor arrangement (one on each axle). A preconditioning function brings the battery to an optimal temperature for DC fast charging. This is a real benefit when charging in colder temperatures.
3-year/36,000-Mile Warranty
Toyota’s new vehicle warranty lasts three years or 36,000 miles, whichever happens first. Powertrains are covered for five years or 60,000 miles. These are typical among mainstream manufacturers, but not as good as Hyundai and Kia. The lithium-ion battery has an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty. Toyota also provides free scheduled maintenance for the first two years or 25,000 miles, plus two years of roadside assistance (unlimited mileage).
Safety
The C-HR has a full suite of advanced safety tech like automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, adaptive cruise control, lane-departure alert with steering assist, lane-tracing assist, high-beam assist, blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, and more.

What's new for 2026

<a href="https://www.kbb.com/car-news/toyota-c-hr-returns-for-2026-all-electric-this-time/">All new for 2026</a>, the C-HR is a revival of the C-HR model name but not a resurrection of the tiny gas-fueled <a href="https://www.kbb.com/toyota/c-hr/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">C-HR</a> that anchored Toyota’s SUV lineup from 2018 to 2022. For one thing, the second-generation C-HR is larger than its namesake and, oh, it’s fully electric. Although its profile is somewhat of a throwback to the original C-HR’s coupe-like looks, unlike that SUV’s rather tepid performance, today’s C-HR packs a serious amount of unbridled thrust. And, whereas the original C-HR was strictly front-wheel drive (FWD), this C-HR comes standard with all-wheel drive (AWD).
<h3>When Will the 2026 Toyota C-HR BEV Come Out?</h3>
Toyota promises the 2026 C-HR will arrive in showrooms sometime in 2026. We suspect that because it is designated a 2026 model, and Toyota has already provided a plethora of details about it, we will probably see its arrival in the first half of the year.

The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 is a spacious, comfortable, and upscale electric midsize 3-row SUV with over 300 miles of range in every configuration.

<ul>
<li>Expensive upper trims</li>
<li>Subpar performance in base trim</li>
</ul>

The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 is powered by a 215-horsepower electric motor with rear-wheel drive in its base configuration. The SE and SEL models use a 303-hp dual-motor setup with all-wheel drive, and the trims with &#8220;Performance&#8221; in their name turn up the heat with 422 hp and all-wheel drive. The one we drove was a Performance Calligraphy model, and we were impressed with the electric powertrain&#8217;s confident acceleration, both from a standstill and at speed on the highway. Most families will be well served by the mid-range 303-hp powertrain, and in our experience driving the single-motor version of the Kia EV9, it was a bit underpowered for an SUV this size.
One of the things that stood out to us the most in our testing of the Hyundai Ioniq 9 is that it&#8217;s remarkably quiet. Most EVs are quiet, but even by EV standards, the cabin of the Ioniq 9 is a sanctuary with minimal mechanical noise from the motors or road noise from the tires. This hushed ride contributes to the generally serene experience of driving the Ioniq 9. The handling and braking are adequate and predictable for a midsize SUV, and we noticed the steering firming up quite a bit when we switched to Sport mode. Overall, for daily commuting and long-distance cruising, the Hyundai Ioniq 9 is one of the most comfortable and peaceful ways to get around, this side of a luxury SUV.
<h3>Range and Charging</h3>
Range is a strong suit of the 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9. It&#8217;s rated at 335 miles with the single-motor, rear-wheel-drive powertrain, 320 miles with the dual-motor setup in the SE and SEL models, and 311 miles with the Performance trims. In the small world of non-luxury 3-row EVs, the Hyundai Ioniq 9 has the best range, and it&#8217;s the only one with a 300+ mile range in every configuration.
The charging speed is similarly impressive. With public DC fast charging, a 350 kW charger can charge the car from 10% to 80% in as little as 24 minutes. With a Tesla V3 Supercharger, it takes 41 minutes. With Level 2 charging, which can be installed in your garage, charging from 10% to 80% takes an estimated nine hours and 40 minutes.

Sleek Exterior

The striking exterior design of the Hyundai Ioniq 9 is smooth, slippery, and aerodynamic, contributing to its efficiency and outstanding range ratings. Although its body is curvy, it has blocky design elements in the light signatures front and back. Hyundai told us the blocky look was partially inspired by Minecraft (no, really). We think it&#8217;s a great marriage of squares and curves to create an interesting design that doesn&#8217;t look quite like anything else outside of Hyundai&#8217;s Ioniq subbrand, strengthening the unique visual identity of Hyundai EVs.

Our Favorite Features and Tech

300+ mile range 
Some EVs have a big gap between the max range rating and the range of the one you actually want. Not so much with the Hyundai Ioniq 9. Its max range in the rear-wheel-drive configuration is 335 miles, and even its least efficient variant goes 311 miles on a full charge.
DC Fast Charging 
The Hyundai Ioniq 9 charges from 10% to 80% in as little as 24 minutes with DC fast charging in ideal conditions. This greatly reduces the waiting time involved with keeping your EV charged up on a long drive.
NACS port 
The Hyundai Ioniq 9 comes native with a Tesla-style North American Charging System (NACS) port. This makes it easy to charge up at Tesla charging stations, and you can use any other fast charging station with a CCS adapter, maximizing the charging network that&#8217;s available to the owner.
Highway Driving Assist 2 
Hyundai&#8217;s Highway Driving Assist 2 is one of our favorite semi-autonomous highway driving systems. You still have to keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road, but this natural-feeling system makes the drive safer and more relaxed by keeping you centered in your lane at a safe distance from the car in front of you.
Dual 12.3-inch displays 
The Ioniq 9 has a pair of 12.3-inch displays in a single housing, so they look like one wide screen. The one directly in front of the driver handles instrument cluster duties. The one in the center is a touchscreen for infotainment functions. The look is becoming common, but it’s common because it looks great, and more upscale than this car’s price tag.
Wireless smartphone connectivity 
This SUV comes standard with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. These features make it easy to bring maps, music, and more to the screens in the car without removing your phone from your purse or pocket.

Classy Interior

The sleek and futuristic design of the Ioniq 9&#8217;s exterior carries over into the interior. The front seats are roomy and comfortable, and although you can&#8217;t get real leather, the H-Tex upholstery in the SEL trim and up feels premium. Two-tone interior color schemes are optional, and we&#8217;re especially fond of the Dark Teal two-tone look available in the Calligraphy trims.
A few features that are standard across the board include heated front seats, dual 12.3-inch displays, wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, wireless phone charging, and tri-zone automatic climate control. Upgrade to the upper trims to unlock luxury features like an Ergo Motion driver&#8217;s seat (derived from the Genesis luxury brand), a panoramic sunroof, power-folding third-row seats, Bose audio, and a head-up display.
Seating space is impressive in all three rows, by midsize SUV standards. The second row is comfortable for adults of just about any size. The front center console is accessible to the second-row passengers thanks to a dual-hinged lid, and a big drawer slides out on the bottom to hold the passengers&#8217; tablets, headphones, snacks, or other sundries. Second-row captain&#8217;s chairs in the Limited and Calligraphy models make the second row more comfortable and the third row easier to access.
The third row has 32 inches of legroom, which is a little more than the Kia EV9 and the gas-powered Hyundai Palisade. It&#8217;s a little tight for adults but suitable for kids. There&#8217;s 21.9 cubic feet of cargo space behind the third row, 46.7 cubic feet behind the second row, and 86.9 cubic feet behind the first row. These dimensions also beat the EV9 and Palisade. In the case of Hyundai SUVs, going electric comes with no compromise on interior practicality.

Until quite recently, getting an electric vehicle with three useable rows of seats meant springing for an expensive luxury model. The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 (<a href="https://www.kbb.com/car-news/report-hyundai-ioniq-7-to-become-hyundai-ioniq-9/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">formerly and briefly known as the Ioniq 7</a>) is among the first 3-row all-electric SUVs from a mainstream manufacturer. It builds on the virtues of the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/palisade/">Hyundai Palisade</a>, the brand&#8217;s stellar gas-powered midsize 3-row SUV, with an even roomier interior, a whisper-quiet ride, and, of course, electric efficiency. This aerodynamically designed EV achieves excellent range ratings, going over 300 miles on a full charge regardless of the trim or motor configuration. With an interior that&#8217;s both practical and upscale, a pleasant driving experience, class-leading warranty coverage, fast charging, and excellent range, the Hyundai Ioniq 9 is simply one of the best 3-row EVs money can buy.
We’ve spent hundreds of hours driving and evaluating this generation of <a href="https://www.kbb.com/electric-car/best-electric-suvs/">electric SUVs</a>, including the 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9.

The 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 is <a href="https://www.kbb.com/car-news/2026-hyundai-ioniq-9-starts-around-60k-rebate-eligible/">priced</a> close to the Kia EV9 when similarly equipped, and the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/hyundai/">Hyundai</a> has a slightly lower cost of entry if you want all-wheel drive. It&#8217;s a more affordable alternative to 3-row electric luxury SUVs like the <a href="https://www.kbb.com/rivian/r1s/">Rivian R1S</a> and <a href="https://www.kbb.com/volvo/ex90/">Volvo EX90</a>. Another option worth mentioning in 3-row EVs is the similarly priced <a href="https://www.kbb.com/volkswagen/id-buzz/">Volkswagen ID. Buzz</a>.
Before buying an Ioniq 9, check the Kelley Blue Book Fair Purchase Price to know what you should really pay. It&#8217;s too early to predict the resale value of the Hyundai Ioniq 9, but the similar Kia EV9 enjoys resale value that&#8217;s above average for an EV. Recouping more money when selling a vehicle can mean a bigger down payment and lower monthly payments on the next one.

<ul>
<li>300+ range in every trim</li>
<li>Quiet and roomy interior</li>
<li>Class-leading warranty</li>
</ul>

Every 2026 Hyundai Ioniq 9 uses the same lithium-ion 110.3 kWh battery pack. The base single-motor configuration with rear-wheel drive makes 215 hp and 258 lb-ft of torque. Upgrading to the SE and SEL trims brings a dual-motor setup with all-wheel drive producing 303 hp and 446 lb-ft of torque, and the range-topping Performance models pump out 422 hp and 516 lb-ft of torque.
The combined efficiency ratings for the Ioniq 9 are 92 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent) for the S trim, 88 MPGe for the SE and SEL models, and 85 MPGe for the Performance trims. For reference, the Kia EV9 gets between 80-89 MPGe, while the VW ID. Buzz gets 83 MPGe with rear-wheel drive and 80 MPGe with all-wheel drive. In this competitive set, the Ioniq 9 gets the most miles out of the juice in its battery, translating to low fuel costs compared to similar 3-row EVs.
<h3>Class-Leading Warranty</h3>
The Hyundai Ioniq 9 is backed by a 5-year/60,000-mile basic warranty and a 10-year/100,000-mile powertrain warranty. This is tied with the Kia EV9 for best-in-class warranty coverage for a midsize electric SUV.
