Despite a name that sounds like someone rested their elbow on the keyboard, Toyota's new electric compact SUV might be worth a look.
ProsConsWhat’s new? An all-new electric vehicle, the 2023 Toyota TM bZ4X SUV has a range of up to 252 miles and is similar in size to the RAV4. Pricing starts at $42,000.
Back to more important matters, the lithium-ion battery rests under the umbrella of an 8-year/100,000-mile warranty — whichever happens first. The bZ4X is capable of over-the-air updates. Owners can set things like cabin temperature and heated/cooled seats remotely by using an app on their smartphone and controlling the charging schedule.
Pricing of the 2023 bZ4X is in line with rivals like the Kia EV6, Volkswagen ID.4, Subaru FUJHY Solterra, and Chevrolet Bolt EUV, while being slightly less than the Hyundai Ioniq 5 and the Ford F Mustang Mach-E. Another special electric vehicle attribute is the availability of maximum torque when accelerating away from standstill. There’s a bit of that with the new bZ4X SUV.
Although the 2023 bZ4X electric SUV is no off-road specialist, all-wheel-drive versions have an X-Mode feature, with settings for Snow/Dirt and Snow/Mud to help cope with slippery conditions, and let the driver concentrate more on steering than anything else. If this X-Mode term sounds familiar, it might be because it’s a Subaru innovation. The bZ4X and the new Subaru Solterra electric SUV share a platform.
Interior comfort Like its RAV4 stablemate, the new bZ4X packs plenty of interior space into a compact SUV footprint, enhanced by a wheelbase longer than the RAV4’s: 112.2 inches compared with 105.9. The top Limited trim offers the option of a special heater for the lower extremities of those sitting up front. And every new bZ4X has a heat pump as standard, scavenging thermal energy created by the drivetrain and sending it into the cabin.
Standard safety features include forward collision warning with automatic emergency braking and pedestrian detection, blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, Safe Exit Assist, front/rear parking sensors with automatic braking, adaptive cruise control with lane-tracing assistance, lane-keeping assistance, and automatic high beams.
