In line with the efforts of Qatar to limit the spread of the COVID-19 virus, and a commitment from Abdullah Abdulghani & Bros. Co. (AAB) to ensure the protection of the health and safety of its customers, the company initiated first digital launch in Qatar with the introduction of the all-new Toyota C-HR, a new member to the Toyota Hybrid Vehicle (HEV) family.
Announcing the launch of the all new Toyota C-HR, R K Murugan, AAB Acting CEO said that the daringly innovative crossover combines adventurous design with a responsive drive and class-leading eco-friendly technology to bring the future of the crossover to customers in the region. 
Firas Mufti, Senior Marketing Manager added that the introduction of C-HR Hybrid Electric Vehicle further demonstrates Toyota Motor Corporation’s commitment to introduce more class leading eco-friendly technology models in addition to the existing 3 HEV models.
Awwad Mohamed, Senior Manager, Toyota National Sales commented “The introduction of new C-HR gives our customers more options of HEV vehicles to choose from and also further strengthens Toyota’s strong SUV line-up. AAB offers 8 years/160,000kms warranty for Hybrid Battery in Qatar thereby giving peace of mind to the HEV vehicle owners in addition to the fabulous performance in acceleration and quietness.
Designed to stand out both within the Toyota line-up and the crossover segment, the all-new C-HR – or Coupé High-Rider – embodies company President Akio Toyoda’s commitment to promoting stylistic freedom and engineering creativity. Offering the lowest fuel consumption value in its category at 23.9 km/L, the class-leading C-HR enables customers to contribute to a greener future while enjoying the increased driving satisfaction provided by its advanced technologies. 
The all-new C-HR is built on the Toyota New Global Architecture (TNGA) platform, which guarantees a more rewarding driving experience. The vehicle comes with a 1.8-liter VVT-i full-hybrid powertrain and automatic E-CVT transmission, meeting all the requirements of daily commutes and weekend leisure journeys while offering peace of mind through its comprehensive array of safety features.
Viewed from any angle, the combination of faceted gemstone-like shapes and fluid surfaces of the 2020 Toyota C-HR creates a delicate balance of precision and elegance. 
The Daytime Running Lights (DRL) form a singular illuminated element located above the main beam projectors, while the indicator lights are fully integrated within the same unit. The position of the front fog lights at the extreme edges of the lower bumper allows for a very wide lower air intake, underlining the car’s powerful stance. Equipped with LED lamp technology, the rear light clusters stand proud of the bodywork and are connected by a sleek, glossy spoiler, giving the back view of the 2020 Toyota C-HR an expressive visual signature.
The all-new C-HR’s airy and high-quality interior is designed to delight the most discerning of customers. Exuding a genuine sense of luxury and refinement, the cabin offers an elegant contrast between curving surfaces and crisp lines to deliver a fresh, yet comfortable environment. The sleek control panel features a 4.2-inch color LCD Multi-Information Display with an onboard multimedia system and full smartphone integration through both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
The all-new C-HR HEV comes with all the benefits expected of the world’s most proven and advanced hybrid-electric technology, yet drives like any other conventional car, offering remarkable fuel efficiency at 23.9 km/L with zero compromise on performance. The hybrid-electric powertrain is equipped with a small, light, and powerful lithium-ion battery pack that can efficiently absorb and deliver current, enhancing the electric motive force delivery.
Toyota has more than two decades of technical leadership in electrified vehicles and has amassed over 15 million environmentally friendly vehicle sales globally since 1997. ‎Its hybrid-electric batteries are continuously charged by the petrol ‎engine and when decelerating and braking, meaning there is no need to plug in a power cord. 
As with any Toyota model, the safety of occupants is paramount and is assured through several superior technologies. The TNGA-based chassis has been optimized for outstanding impact performance and is complemented by an impressive array of active and passive safety features.
A choice of 10 exciting exterior hues add to the all-new C-HR’s striking visual appeal, including Super White 2, White Pearl CS, Celestite Gray ME, Gray ME, Metal Stream ME, Black MC, Emotion Red 2, Orange ME, Oxide Bronze ME, and Nebula Blue ME. With the launch of the new model, Toyota’s Hybrid Electric Model line-up in Qatar includes Corolla, Camry, RAV4 and the all new C-HR.
