Toyota C-HR road tax in 2026/27

Road tax (VED) on a Toyota C-HR in 2026/27 depends on when it was first registered. A Toyota C-HR first registered from 1 April 2017 pays the £200 standard rate each year after its first (plus £440 a year in years 2 to 6 if its list price was over £40,000, or £50,000 for an electric car registered from 1 April 2025). Bought new in 2026/27, the first-year rate across the 33 versions in the VCA database on 28 September 2026 is £10 to £405, set by WLTP CO2.

Toyota C-HR registered from April 2017

A new Toyota C-HR pays a one-off first-year rate set by its WLTP CO2 figure, then £200 a year. Of the 33 versions in the VCA database on 28 September 2026, the cheapest first year is the C-HR+ Design FWD 77kWh 18" (electricity, AUTOMATIC) at 0g/km (£10) and the dearest the C-HR Hybrid - MY25 GR SPORT 2.0 FWD Hybrid (1987cc petrol electric, CVT) at 110g/km (£405). 7 electric versions pay £10. The first-year rate is normally included in a new car's on-the-road price; a used buyer pays from the standard rate.

Expensive Car Supplement: of the 278 Toyota C-HR versions sold since September 2021 that could still be paying it in 2026/27, 73 Auto's list-price reference confirms 0 cost over the threshold and pay £440 a year on top, and 6 cost less; the list price of the other 272 is not known to us, so we do not say either way.

Of the 142,448 Toyota C-HRs licensed in the UK at 31 December 2025 (DfT), 0% were first used between 2002 and 2016 and so pay by CO2 band, 90% from 2018 onwards and pay the flat rate, and 0% before 2001, taxed by engine size; the remaining 10% were first used in 2001 or 2017, when the rules changed part-way through the year.

Does a Toyota C-HR pay the Expensive Car Supplement?

Versions listed in each VCA snapshot, treated as first registered then and renewing in 2026/27. The status comes from 73 Auto's VED engine and list-price reference; “not known” means we have no confirmed list price for that version.

Limitations

Rates are the 2026/27 rates for a 12-month licence taken out from 2026-04-01; paying monthly or for six months costs slightly more. The CO2 figure is the official type-approval figure the VCA published when each version was on sale, which is normally the figure on the V5C, but a car's own V5C is what DVLA uses. Some versions were sold under a different model name (for example estate or MPV variants), and the VCA's list does not say how many of each were sold, so the version counts are not a guide to how common each band is on the road. The Expensive Car Supplement depends on the original list price including options, which the VCA list does not carry. Figures are calculated with 73 Auto's VED engine from the DVLA rate tables.
