Have today ordered our new C-HR Excel in White Pearl and hope to take delivery in late September. Have never driven a hybrid before so it will be a steep learning curve when it arrives. Very impressed with all the gadgets on the test-drive car and guess that they will take time to get used to. It's not every day that you go out to buy some strawberries and get home having bought a new car.

Hello and welcome. I had a test drive to demonstrate to myself that I didn't want a CHR hybrid. Well that didn't work, but at least I wasn't out for strawberries. No regrets though.
