The interior of the Toyota C-HR follows the urban, sporty theme of its exterior, featuring generous curves and a handful of buttons that culminate to form a simple and contemporary interior design. The highlight of the dashboard is a 6.1-inch wide freestanding touchscreen display along with a digital clock. The center console itself is slightly angled towards the driver for a driver-focused approach.
