Looking just as extreme as any of the C-HR concept cars that previewed it, the production C-HR will attempt to snatch contrarian customers from the Nissan Juke and Kia Soul, seemingly by out-weirding them in the looks department. But in the C-HR, how deep does weird run? Were the interior designers smoking the same stuff as the exterior designers?

Happily, the cabin appears to offer a retinal reprieve from the tortured bodywork. While most of the interior panels and trim pieces visible in these images are expressively styled, the aesthetic is more BMW i3 than lunar rover. The dashboard consists of multiple horizontal design elements, each highly three-dimensional, and the infotainment screen stands proudly atop the dash in a trapezoidal frame. Perhaps the most interesting item is the ribbon-like blue trim, which appears to have been draped from the middle of one door across the dashboard to the other door.
Given the exterior’s insane styling, we expected more interesting designs for the steering wheel and the gauge cluster, but those are small nits to pick.
