Decorative black C-HR plastic trims on the sides with a curved profile make the machine visually taller and thinner. The side silhouette is similar to an innovative athletic running shoe. You are not running anywhere yet, and people already consider you an athlete and a fashionista.
The rear doors are masked by a handle raised closer to the roof. Thus, it was possible to create the illusion of a coupe. The line of windows is favorably emphasized by the chrome molding. The rear windows are small, almost half the size of the front ones.
The tailgate also seems miniature due to the inscribed trapezium, which is wrapped around by protruding lights. From the rear, the C-HR resembles a spaceship, with a complex rear wing, tinted glass and spectacular taillights, which are connected in the new version with a horizontal line.

How a hybrid works
The car has an internal combustion engine, a high-voltage battery and an electric motor. In the «full» hybrid Toyota C-HR, the engines work alternately or together. The crossover starts on an electric motor, and then the internal combustion engine is connected to work. During braking and coasting, kinetic energy is converted into electrical energy and charges the battery. This charge is used by the electric motor, which allows the gasoline engine to rest.
The benefits of hybrids are undeniable: they produce less emissions and save fuel when the electric motor is running, and when both engines are connected, the car has more power. In addition, there is no need to look for a charger.
The hybrid operates in three modes that switch automatically: Charge (energy recovery and battery charging), eco (the car selects an environmentally optimal mode) and power (the internal combustion engine or both motors are running).
The driver can activate the EV-mode. It instructs the car to drive exclusively on electric traction and not waste gasoline. To prevent EV mode from disengaging, you need to drive smoothly and do not accelerate more than 50 km / h. So I managed to drive 2.4 km.
