The Toyota C-HR Prologue was designed at,Toyota’s European Design Development center in the South France, which is where the current C-HR was designed.“Our mission was to dig deep, to go further than we’d ever gone before. We’re really looking forward to delivering the new Toyota C-HR,” stated Lance Scott, Design Director Toyota European Design Development.
The next-generation C-HR will be offered in Europe soon, but Toyota hasn’t announced any details about it being offered in the U.S.
