The Toyota C-HR+ is the production version of the 2022 Toyota Compact SUV concept. The new EV is similar to its internal combustion engine counterpart, but it is larger and built on the Toyota e-TNGA battery platform, while the "regular" C-HR is based on the TNGA (GA-C) platform. So technically, the new C-HR+ is even closer to the Toyota bZ4X than the C-HR. The length was 4,520 mm and the wheelbase is 2,750 mm. In comparison, the second-generation Toyota C-HR is 4360 mm long and has a wheelbase of 2640 mm.

A 14-inch multimedia display is on the standard equipment list of all Toyota C-HR+.

The MyToyota app allows owners to monitor charging status and time, range, and usage data.
Sales of the Toyota C-HR+ will begin as early as 2025 in select markets in Europe. Pricing has not yet been announced, unfortunately.
