The C-HR includes DC fast charging capability, with 10–80 % charging in about 30 minutes under ideal conditions, and a North American Charging Standard (NACS) port for broad charging network access. All with an EPA-estimated ~287 miles of range on the SE grade with 18-inch wheels, and about 273 miles on the sportier XSE with 20-inch wheels. The C-HR uses a 74.7-kWh battery pack.
Inside, the new C-HR sports a premium, modern interior with soft-touch materials, customizable ambient lighting, and a 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system. Cargo space offers 25.3 cu ft behind the rear seats, expandable to 59.5 cu ft with the rear seats folded.
