Intro to the bZ4X
The all-new Toyota bZ4X is a battery-electric vehicle or BEV, and is solely powered by a 71.4kWh battery pack. The bZ4X is branded by Toyota as a spacious 5-seater family SUV with a 452-litre boot making it easy for larger families.
When it comes to range the bZ4X doesn't disappoint with an estimated 318 miles of electric range much higher than the base model Nissan Ariya or the similarly styled Lexus Rz.
Prices range from £42,860 to north of £50,000 once you move up the specifications. This puts the bZ4X slightly pricier than the new Renault Scenic E-Tech but quite a bit cheaper than the Nissan Ariya which ranges from £40,000 to £60,000.
Considering its size and impressive electric mileage, the Toyota bZ4X emerges as exceptional value for money in the current automotive market.

The bZ4X Interior
The interior of the bZ4X is unique and boasts a large, responsive and easy-to-use infotainment system. The driver's console is unusual and is designed to be viewed over the steering wheel instead of through it. It's an interesting feature which keeps more information in view when looking straight ahead.
Overall the interior is packed full of tech, easy to use and comfortable. All the touchpoints around the cabin feel robust and we liked that not everything is controlled by a screen. This makes the bZ4X easier to use while on the go however a little more cluttered than some other EVs that have focused on a minimum design.
In The Back
The bZ4X truly stands out in terms of comfort and practicality. Its exceptional legroom, coupled with generous headroom, ensures a comfortable experience, especially for taller passengers. The convenience of easily accessible ISOFIX points adds to the family-friendly design, making it hassle-free for parents on the go. Moreover, the well-thought-out rear door storage proves advantageous during extended journeys, providing a convenient space for essential items.
While the boot size may not match the scale of the Skoda Enyaq, it offers ample space for most needs. What's noteworthy is the absence of a load lip, facilitating effortless loading and unloading of larger items. This thoughtful design element enhances the bZ4X's versatility, making it not only a practical choice for daily use but also a reliable companion for those who value ease and convenience in their automotive experience.
