Toyota has dropped a heavy hint that its C-HR compact SUV is about to get a new type of hybrid treatment.
A new concept, called the “C-HR Hy-Power”, will be on display at the fast-approaching Frankfurt Motor Show - teased for the first time in a single official image (top of page).
Toyota already offers a C-HR Hybrid overseas, but rumours (and the concept’s name) suggest this new concept could take the powertrain to a new level.
Whether this means the existing Prius-supplied powerplant will be ramped up, or Toyota is about to introduce an all-new hybrid system, is probably a question for the floors of Frankfurt.
Also in the ‘maybe’ pile is whether the concept previews a future road-going model - perhaps a C-HR with a performance slant - and whether other models in the Toyota fleet will get the same hybrid system.
