Japanese Toyota will introduce a new compact crossover C-HR. Some analysts believe that its design will make the car «Nissan Juke’s killer". Earlier, Toyota presented only concept of this model, but promised to reveal the complete model in Geneva. Depending on the complication, C-HR will be equipped with either front-wheel or all-wheel drive. Experts believe that in the case of a reasonable pricing policy, the new Toyota could compete not only with extravagant Nissan Juke, but with other compact crossovers - Honda HR-V and Mazda CX-3 – as well.
