Deal of the Day: Funky hybrid Toyota C-HR for less than £280 per month

Our Deal of the Day for 3 November is the latest Toyota C-HR for £278 a month on lease

Toyota C-HR - front action
  • £278 a month for 3 years
  • £2,503 initial payment 
  • A stylish, efficient hybrid at sensible money

Today’s Deal of the Day shows just how much the market can shift in only a few weeks, depending on factors like stock and manufacturer incentives. Less than a month ago, the latest Toyota C-HR would have cost you comfortably north of £500 per month – but we’ve now found a personal contract hire deal that comes in at barely half that figure.

We found Friday’s star deal through leasing aggregator leaseloco.com. It’s based on the 1.8-litre hybrid version of the second-generation C-HR, which promises lots of urban electric-only running, without the need for a home wallbox. This particular offer is based on the Design spec, too, which brings useful amounts of extra standard kit and, in this case, a two-tone paint job.

Put down £2.503 as an initial payment (equivalent to nine months of rental) and this C-HR Design comes in at £278 per month. That’s based on a three-year deal, with a workable mileage limit of 8,000 miles per year. 

Of course, it’s important to remember that this is a PCH arrangement – so you’ll never own the car, and when you return it at the end of the fixed three-year agreement, you’ll not be able to use any of its equity to help pay for your next vehicle. But if you were to put the same deposit down on a three-year, 24,000-mile Toyota PCP deal, you’d be paying £495 per month – a hefty premium to have the flexibility of paying a £17,820 final payment to own the car.

The second-generation C-HR even looks pretty well kitted out in Design spec. You get heated front seats, a 12.3-inch infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, front and rear USB-C sockets, a powered tailgate, a reversing camera and dual-zone air conditioning. As with the first-gen car, it’s a vehicle that focuses on style over practicality. There’s a little more space inside for occupants this time round, though, making the C-HR a potential choice as an efficient small family car.

As always with our Deal of the Day selections, prices and offers are subject to change, while terms and conditions apply. Our experts scour the market for the best deals on cars that we’re happy to recommend, choosing only the ones that we think offer the best value.
