Up to 7,000 € off: Toyota updates its best-selling hybrid SUV in Spain to compete with Nissan and BYD

It is a fact that Toyota is the world leader in hybrids, as evidenced by the 4.4 million hybrid vehicles it sold globally in 2025. The world’s top automaker offers this type of hybrid engine across virtually its entire lineup. This includes its 4.36-meter SUV, which has just been updated and for which it offers a discount of up to 7,000 euros.

We are, of course, talking about the Toyota C-HR, a true best-seller in Spain as a hybrid model. So far this year, it ranks 5th among the best-selling hybrids in our country, behind only the Toyota Corolla — whose replacement is expected to be a plug-in hybrid and electric version — the Yaris Cross, the Nissan Qashqai, and the Yaris.

Toyota’s hybrid SUV, also a best-seller like its PHEV model… behind only BYD

But be aware that this Toyota hybrid SUV, now in its second generation since 2023, is also a best-seller in our country as a plug-in hybrid. In this segment and for the whole of 2026 so far—up to the end of August—it ranks as the third-best-selling car, just behind the BYD Atto 2 DM-i—read our review—and the BYD Seal U DM-i—we also tested this one—as well.

To undercut Nissan’s sales and also compete with BYD, Toyota has just released a minor update to this SUV. As a hybrid model, it comes in two powertrains: Hybrid 140 and Hybrid 200, delivering 140 and 197 horsepower respectively. The more powerful hybrid engine is only available in the AWD-i version with all-wheel drive.

As a plug-in hybrid and a strong competitor to BYD, this Toyota is available in the Plug-in Hybrid 220 version, which offers 223 horsepower and an average fuel consumption of 2.3 L/100 km.

Update and up to 7,000 € discount for this hybrid SUV

As mentioned earlier, the changes in this 2027 version of Toyota’s best-selling hybrid SUV are minor. In fact, they are limited to its most premium trim levels: the Spirit trim and the sporty GR SPORT version.

In the Spirit trim, if we purchase the Skyview panoramic roof package, this SUV comes equipped with new leather upholstery covering all seats.

For the Toyota C-HR GR SPORT models, also paired with the panoramic roof, a JBL audio system is now included. With this combination, it’s also possible to order the new Ónix Mate color, which is now available in a two-tone option for the GR SPORT Plus trim.

But the most important thing is that Toyota maintains a very aggressive commercial discount policy for this best-selling hybrid SUV, offering discounts ranging from 5,000 to 7,000 euros depending on the trim level; though to clarify, the 7,000 euro discount is only available for the Hybrid versions with the GR SPORT trim.

And what’s even better is that Toyota offers these discounts of up to 7,000 euros only during promotional campaigns, so if you’re interested in financing the purchase of this SUV that’s putting Nissan and BYD on edge, you might even be able to get an even better deal.
