2025 Toyota bZ4X
The freshened 2026 bZ4X is renamed bZ with more power and longer range. The bZ4X SUV is Toyota's first ground-up EV. Sized like the RAV4, the front-wheel-drive bZ4X has a 201-hp motor, a 71.4-kilowatt-hour battery, and an EPA-estimated 252-mile range, while the all-wheel-drive version has 214 hp and a 72.8-kWh battery good for a 222-mile range. The range is short by current EV standards, and the car's 6.6-kilowatt onboard charger means home charging is on the slow side. A 100-kW DC fast-charging rate for the AWD model is also behind competitors. Otherwise, it's a functional SUV with agile handling and a decent ride but a rather spartan interior. Oddly, there is no glove box or rear wiper. It features the Safety Sense 3.0, which adds more advanced active safety and driver assist functions. The Subaru Solterra is essentially the same vehicle.

Brand context
About Toyota
<p>Toyota has a reputation for building efficient and exceptionally reliable vehicles. This holds true in most cases, with a few exceptions. Most of their models do well in our testing, thanks to their impressive fuel economy, comfortable rides, quiet cabins, good controls, and generous standard safety equipment. All of this makes Toyotas among the best options for used vehicles. The brand was a hybrid pioneer, starting with the original Prius. Toyota has evolved and expanded that technology, and most vehicles in its lineup are available as a hybrid. Toyota sells a number of plug-in hybrids and an increasing number of EVs, including the bZ and C-HR. The company also knows how to add a dosage of excitement into its lineup: The GR86, GR Corolla, and Supra are legit, fun-to-drive sports cars.</p>
