2027 Toyota C-HR Electric SUV: Range, Charging and Grades
2027 Toyota C-HR: The Compact Electric SUV, Explained
Range, charging, power, and the SE vs XSE grades, based on Toyota’s own numbers.
The 2027 Toyota C-HR is a battery electric compact SUV with standard all-wheel drive, 338 net combined system horsepower, and a coupe-like shape. Toyota estimates up to 287 miles of range, and the charge port is NACS. If you are curious about going electric in Victorville, Hesperia, or Apple Valley, here is what the C-HR offers and what to think about before you decide.
All details below come from Toyota’s August 2026 announcement. Toyota says the 2027 model is unchanged from the previous model year.
C-HR at a Glance
Range and acceleration figures are manufacturer estimates. Range varies with speed, temperature, accessory use, driving habits, and charging habits.
Range and Charging
The C-HR uses a 74.7 kWh lithium-ion battery mounted under the floor. Toyota estimates 287 miles of range on the SE with 18-inch wheels and 273 miles on the XSE with 20-inch wheels. Because temperature and speed affect range, expect real-world results that differ from the estimate.
- Fast charging: NACS port. Toyota estimates about 10% to 80% in around 30 minutes under ideal conditions, and says weather and other factors affect charging time.
- Home charging: 11-kW onboard charger that supports Level 1 and Level 2 charging, with a standard dual-voltage charging cable.
- Battery preconditioning: manual, or automatic when you set a fast-charging station as your navigation destination (requires an active Drive Connect trial or subscription).
- Plug & Charge: requires an active Remote Connect trial or subscription.

Power and Drive
Electric motors sit on both the front and rear axles, giving the C-HR standard electronic all-wheel drive. Toyota lists 198 lb-ft of torque at the front and 125 lb-ft at the rear, and a 0 to 60 mph time of 4.9 seconds (manufacturer estimate). Paddle shifters let you choose from four levels of regenerative braking, which recovers energy as you slow down.
The C-HR measures 177.9 inches long, 73.6 inches wide, and 63.8 inches tall, on a 108.3-inch wheelbase. Toyota describes the design as coupe-like, based on a compact BEV concept the company showed in 2022.
SE vs. XSE: What Is Different?
The C-HR comes in two grades. Here is how they compare, per Toyota:
| Per Toyota | SE | XSE |
|---|---|---|
| Wheels | 18-inch with black inserts | 20-inch, gunmetal finish |
| Estimated range | 287 miles | 273 miles |
| Seating | Fabric and SofTex | SofTex and synthetic suede |
| Front seats | 8-way power driver, 6-way manual passenger | 8-way power driver and passenger, driver memory |
| Roof | Low-profile roof rails | Panoramic fixed glass roof with power sunshade |
| Driver assistance | Front and rear parking assist with automatic braking | Adds Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Change Assist, and Panoramic View Monitor |
| Audio | Six-speaker system | Six-speaker system; nine-speaker JBL optional |
Traffic Jam Assist requires Drive Connect. Both grades include heated front seats and steering wheel, a power liftgate, and rain-sensing wipers.
Inside: Space and Technology
A 14-inch touchscreen runs Toyota Audio Multimedia with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. A 7-inch customizable display sits in the Multi-Information Display, and the cabin includes dual Qi wireless chargers, multiple USB-C ports, rear-seat vents, dual-zone climate control, and customizable ambient lighting.
There is also a 1500W AC outlet in the rear cargo area, handy for camping, tailgating, or powering small gear. Both grades are Toyota Digital Key capable. Connected services come with trials (five years for Safety Connect, Service Connect, and Remote Connect), and a subscription is required after the trial.
Safety: Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 Standard
Both grades come with Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. According to Toyota, the suite includes:
- Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection
- Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control
- Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist
- Lane Tracing Assist
- Road Sign Assist
- Automatic High Beams
- Proactive Driving Assist
Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, Safe Exit Alert, and the Star Safety System are also standard. These systems assist the driver and do not replace attentive driving. Learn more in our Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 breakdown for High Desert drivers.
Colors, Warranty, and Care
Standard exterior colors are Overcast, Tandoori, Cement, and Midnight Black Metallic. Wind Chill Pearl is available at extra cost. On the XSE, Tandoori, Cement, or Wind Chill Pearl can be paired with a Midnight Black Metallic roof (extra cost). The SE interior is Black SofTex and fabric, while the XSE offers Boulder or Black synthetic suede and SofTex.
Toyota’s limited warranty includes 36 months or 36,000 miles of basic coverage and 60 months or 60,000 miles on the powertrain. Electric vehicle driving components, including the traction battery, are covered for 8 years or 100,000 miles, whichever comes first. ToyotaCare covers normal factory-scheduled maintenance for one year or 10,000 miles, plus three years of Roadside Assistance. See your Toyota dealer for complete warranty details.
Is the C-HR Right for You?
It may fit if
You can charge at home, your daily driving is mostly local or commuter miles, and you want quick acceleration and standard all-wheel drive in a compact size.
Think it over if
You regularly drive long stretches without access to charging, or you cannot charge where you park. A hybrid may be an easier first step. Our team can help you compare, and you can read about the 2027 Corolla as another way to stay efficient.
The best test is a drive. Try the C-HR on roads you use every day, and bring your questions about charging.
