    Question Toyota CH-R question

    I am looking into the CHR and wondered if anyone has any experience with this vehicle. On the up side, it looks like it is the right size for me as I like smaller vehicles. On the down side there is no AWD apparently. Also, not sure if there is remote starter capability.
    Feedback anyone?

    I test drove one because I thought it was a really nice looking car, but hated it after just a few moments. It might be the slowest car on earth.

    I didn't even know this was a thing and just looked it up now. Cool looking vehicle, but wow talk about boring options (or lack thereof).

    There's a Lexus version coming with turbo and AWD. It will be called the UX.

    The LexusUX ? Lol... Someone might want to think that branding.

    Why would anyone buy a FWD CUV?

    aren't 95% of CUVs effectively 1wd?

    I am looking for a car with more weight and stability than my 2008 mazda 3 sport, but something that is not too big... I am considering the crosstrek and the mazda cx5 - something more corssovery than full SUV if that makes any sense. I am open to suggestions for sure. I need to do some highway driving and want something sturdy in the event of snow or wind storms.

    It's kind of like their goal was to make as many lines and seams as possible.

    Someone never piped up and said that a car shouldn't look like a patchwork quilt.

    EDIT: On second thought, all the designers probably did pipe up, but the big boss was tripping on coke and said, "do it or you're fired".

    Best word for that body? Monstrosity.

    Came in to suggest Juke haha

    It really is a polarizing vehicle but fits your needs perfectly.

    I personally thought it was ugly as hell when it came out but now it looks awesome, especially the 2015 and up versions with the revised headlights and grill.

    A lot of people don't know it's super light too with 188hp and handles like it's on rails compared to say a Rogue, great on the highway, but with CVT, it is fucking brutal to drive in the city as it's a tiny 4 banger and the turbo lag is quite noticeable....

    Believe me - I thought about the Juke as it is the right size, but I dont care for the style...

    I think it's a cool looking car, but the fact that you cant get one in AWD is a let down. Yes it's slow AF but all CUV are tbh. might want to look into an HRV or Qashqai instead.

    I saw one of these at the car show and it was a piece of crap, huge blind spots, poor materials inside, weak engine and one wheel drive. Car reviews on this aren’t the greatest.

    Go look at a HRV, crosstrek, cx3 and qashqai, they are all girly cuv’s
