Hello Toyota CHR Fans. Your car has arrived

However Malaysia did not bring in the full spec model and also it cost 146k. Identical specs with HRV while 30-50k more and even more expensive than the CX3 or subaru XV

what is toyota thinking?

Confirm not many people buy the pricing is ridiculuos people rather choose crv or hrv .the back seat space is very cramp

The weed is strong with UMW.

Itu spec and price. Gila weh

The rear space is super cramp. IF you think CX3 is cramp lol wait till you sit on this.

The vision sucks also because of that funny car shape towards to the rear end. Unless you want to hunch your body forward in order to view outside lol

Sure got sohai buy this car one.

okay thing i know why price like that because of CBU car
price similar to mazda cx3 (10K cheaper than CHR)
but one thing remain different between CHR and CX3

CX3 came with sunroof unlike other Japanase car in malaysia within that range.

No surprise there, price also higher compared to others in the UK

With that price , UMW should not bring in the car at all , it does not make sense when someone can get a base spec CRV or CX5 with that price .

over priced. UMW's mentality had been like that for the last decades. I thought recently when they added 7 airbags to their altis and camry product line, they have changed. but I am wrong. Cant change this stupid company's mindset!!!!!

Uncles still buying....oh waii

Whatever they smoking in the UMW office I want some as well.

At KLIMS a salesguy gave the exact figures.. bye bye toyota

there will still be ppl buying it just because it's a Toyota regardless the specs and price.

pity those who actually going to buy the CHR

It's a Toyota, it's like religion, can't argue using logic with the fan(atic) base.
This is why UMW can continue to profit so much from Malaysian

Sounds like some Pauline 's readers!

150k is cheap for the rich.

50k worth of car... & 100k taxes...

Typical pricing from greedy UMW. Its CBU from Thai not Japan and not even full specs. Also no Xenon or LED headlights for a RM150k car. Greedy, greedy UMW.

UMW nak wang masuk dompet saja... konsumer cepat bayar!

subaru XV much more worth it..2.0 engine & 20k cheaper

It will be an exclusive SUV and kinda "limited edition" to drive around, no doubt it will be a looker among the crowd.

I guess this is only for those who like to be different than the average joe..

back when they were doing all the press their salesman already told me that the price is around 140k guess it was true.... and man with that price can get D segment Camry or Accord already. Wonder how they gonna sell this car. UMW really fail big time, guess next year we can see their service center around Penisular clossing one by one.

lets see which sohem buy this

looker because it's "NEW" like any other "NEW" car.

Whether it looks nice/ugly it's up to individual preference.

A car which was predicted to compete with HR-V? Honda does not even need to facelift it to beat its sales.

Agreed. Subaru XV or Forester for me.

Jayraptor's new strategies???!!!

Anyway, at least plug in the 1.2L turbo or use the hybrid powertrain for that kind of price mah.....

Ini macam....wakau.....

HR-V killer... More like HR-V killed it 3 years before it even launched

If rm146k 1.2 turbo engine sure many ppl buy. If 1.8 N/A I can say to UMW byebye

Me too, I also want whatever it is they are smoking.

rm146k 1.2 turbo engine sure many ppl <- I doubt too 2.0 turbo maybe

DAMN!!

How to sell when the price is similar to CX5?!

Pipu would get the CX5 rather than this overpriced car wei!

but people who buy the car dun care mahal or not as long as its nice looking nowadays.. still will have good sales.. trust me.. im itching to get 1 but my mind ask me grab a Camry Hybrid.. hahaha..

i think they purposely make this car a rare and prestige fashion item for those stylo milo waterfish who got deep pockets and they can only pull off this kind of stunt in our mkt

If you go check the 1.2L turbo power numbers, it is quite close to the 1.8. Just that the response definitely different.

Still overpriced, but at least feel a little more worth it.

or maybe he left the automotive industry permanently already....all his kaki-kaki strategy tiba-tiba lost direction

anyway, let's wait patiently when he resurface up (or maybe he never will, just like the argentinian sub...)

RV tered inkambing

Looker? I find it extremely ugly vs HRV or XV or Nissan Rogue

You hardly see one in Spore and the CHR only cost a few grand more than the HRV but Singaporeans are still buying the latter over the CHR. They are buying much more Rogue than the CHR as well

I predict the sales for the CHR will be similar to the Prius in Msia

Good luck UMW. I hope Nissan overtakes you in 2018

The Nissan kicks! The interior can match those of the contis! This one looks like avanza!

I miss my idol!!!

This price range can get Tiguan 1.4T, Tucson 1.6T, or top up a bit for CR-V 1.5T. I believe all of them will be more fuel efficient than the CH-R 1.8NA, from my Elantra 1.6T experience.

The modern tiny turbo engine is really something. My combined mileage is over 13km/l on average, with average speed on odo only 32km/h. I spent quite some time in traffic light/jam, which pull down the average. 17km/l on highway 110km/h, 15km/l on highway 130-140km/h, with 160-180km/h on small occasion.

Civic 1.5T should be 10-15% more economy than mine. So I really think not using 1.2T doesn't only lose on power, it also has huge disadvantage on fuel economy unlese it sell at 90K like HR-V. Consider paying 50K for fancy bodykit on a HR-V. Haha

Also Toyota insists on proprietary infotainment globally, meaning no android auto, no apple carplay even for 2018 Camry in US.

It look dated after some time.

UMW price. What do u guys expect? Mark up at least 1 more car price.

funny thing is that you do know that with 145k

You can already buy a mid size suv from CRV , CX 5, X trail and etc .

UMW darn fail at making prices. Its even more expensive than their top trim level of hilux pickup LOL while this CHR consider lowest spec

Any individual that you would consider as stylo milo waterfish with deep pockets that look for a rare and prestige fashion item will mostly not buying a toyota

Lol as expected reactions from general public

Before price , must buy, saving money, better than myvi , most amazing invention in the world , sell my mother

After price, marah marah , myvi best thing in the world , top up can get la Ferrari ,

+9999

Since cbu, they can put whatever price they want. Not sure which consumer they are targeting. Cx3 looks better. Crv is bigger.

This is surely the next Honda Freed sales figure.. Honda selling it only for 3 years then no more after that..

I will stick to my theory that UMW Toyota too rich and pity the other manufacturers SUV sales.

So UMW decide help the other brands by selling at high price so only stupid rich people will buy it.

let's see how much they can sell per year, with that price i can buy CRV already

uncle and auntie go pasar buy vegetables

yup...

family outing : Toyota Veilfire
dinner car : BMW 5 series
work car : Toyota Camry 2.4
breakfast, market car : Toyota CHR

nv underestimate our jepunis worshipper mate

i thought hr-v high rear door handle looks suck , this is even worse. price wise, it looks worth 90-100k only with those kinda specs

145k is way too pricey imo. This price is in the mid size suv segment range...

Unless this CHR is around the top tier range.

However this soon to come CHR is consdered as the lowest or lower spec of the CHR Range .

I saw a yellow CHR singapore plated near pavilion once before. I went to the owner and ask for a short preview..... The model he had is a 1.2 turbo and heavens the interior is very premium .. The headlights are also very gorgeous especially when the turn signals are on

I saw the 1.2 turbo in mudah, it cost almost 180k

well my dad is insisting to get the chr, He's currently driving a q7, he wants smaller car for his second car. Im persuading him to get a nx200t. the rule is below 230k, luxury but low maintanance. well q7 maintanance is a bit high

If that is the case, just get him an A class, 1 series, V40 or A1.

I'm not sure the Malaysian specced CHR will satisfy his luxury requirement.

Oh God. Syang seribu kali syang.

A class ,1 series, v40 or A1 , maintanance of these boys is a bit high. and I dont think that these boys can last long.

You've got a point there. You should also consider Subaru XV or Forester too, then. Renault Captur would be too funky.

Renault Koleos is slightly smaller than Q7 but still a hassle to park

well, is toyota, im guessing people still will buy

Me thinks they would be better off selling it with a Lexus badge at this price.

Meh..lexus or not, my mum still likes the car..lol. cant change old people mentality..

End of the day, toyota manage to convince my mum buy this piece of ugly shit.. good job on that toybota...

boot space is small

Saw tons of C-HR in Sydney

Its quite a good looking car (if you're into sporty and aggressive styling) especially those with the dual tone colour scheme.

But here they get the turbo engine option, in malaysia its too overpriced with the 1.8NA engine.

Pity the rear passengers... like sitting inside a closet. Small window.

at this price, i have many other options ..

Apart from being " CBU " from thailand. Malaysia is getting the BASE model only which is just a old civic engine 1.8 in a new design crossover.

Thats it no fancy technologies. The cool looking CHR spotted in malaysia are 1.2 Turbo " recond/used " from Japan. 180k

People will still get this. Look at vios, expensive TRD kosong spec at 90k also got people buy over city hybrid or city V.

It won’t be a volume seller, but it’ll sell nonetheless.

Toyota using Honda engine?

with that price plenty of choice outthere, not smart

have to pay rm145k. getting halogen bulb, old junk even proven 1.8 toyota engine.
other region getting 1.2T new engine. haha

Boikot umw!!

i think this car only suits for 2 people at the front.

rear passengers will feel cramp and stuffed like sardine can.

ha ha ha ha ha ..... very conservative mentality boss helmming UMW Malaysia!

at first when i read about this early last year they said they only have jdm version for sale which they believed was too expensive for the market. about estimated 160k for entry version
compared to mazda and honda prices, toyota will definitely lose out
so they decided to manufacture it locally in the factory in malaysia and expected price range for it would be 130k when ready to sell here locally.
now i see 150k and no 2.0 variant. pttttui

Seeing some CH-R on the road already..

This car looks great in front..the rear...is very toyish

Anyone driving this car?
