2018 Toyota C-HR R-Tuned

BUILD VISION AND INSPIRATION

Toyota paired with DG-Spec to build the C-HR R-Tuned as a testament to how far the C-HR could go in a track environment. It features a 2.4-liter Toyota 2AZ-FE with forged internals, reinforced valve-train, and a custom DG-Spec Garrett turbo system that pushes power output beyond 600 horsepower at approximately 23 psi of boost. This is linked to a five-speed Toyota E-Series manual transmission replacing the stock CVT.

Not built to go fast only in a straight line, the C-HR R-Tuned also features Brembo racing brakes, Toyo race tires and a remote-reservoir, triple-adjustable DG-Spec Motion Control Suspension (MCS) motorsports dampers, and functional aerodynamics that produce 300 pounds of downforce at speed.

Able to accelerate from 0-60 mph in 2.9 seconds and produce 1.2g of braking force and 1.7g of lateral acceleration, the C-HR R-Tuned clocked a 1:25.22 lap time at Willow Springs International Raceway's (Calif.) 2.5-mile 'Big Track,' quicker than all but five production cars according to fastestlaps.com.
