“Toyota’s Electric Adventure Wagon: Meet the All-New bZ4X Touring – Built for Families, Powered for the Wild”
Toyota just dropped the curtain on its latest electric marvel, and it’s not your average eco-car. Say hello to the bZ4X Touring—an extended, adventure-ready sibling of the original bZ4X SUV. With more room, more power, and rugged style, this battery electric vehicle (BEV) is dialled in for sporty family lifestyles, epic road trips, and everyday chaos in between.
Family First, Features Second to None
Tailored for action-packed family life, the bZ4X Touring is 140mm longer and 20mm taller than its predecessor. That might sound subtle, but it packs a punch—specifically a 33% boost in boot space, now clocking in at 600 litres. Whether it’s bikes, backpacks, or the dog crate, there’s room for it all.
Inside, it’s smart and stylish, featuring a new centre console, a larger 14-inch multimedia screen, and fresh City Moss upholstery that channels the rugged vibes of the outdoors. Navigation is BEV-optimised too, guiding you to nearby charging points based on your range and charge level.
Power Up: More Juice, More Zoom
The bZ4X Touring comes with a 74.7kWh lithium-ion battery and a targeted range of up to 348 miles (WLTP). That’s school runs, weekend hikes, and IKEA trips—all on a single charge.
Choose your power:
-
FWD model: 221bhp (165kW)
-
AWD version: A whopping 376bhp (280kW), making this the most powerful Toyota BEV to date.
And if you’re thinking of hauling a caravan or a pair of jet skis? This SUV’s got a 1,500kg towing capacity. Rugged much?
Fast Charging, Cold Weather? No Problem.
Toyota brings serious tech upgrades: a new water-cooled battery system and preconditioning function ensure optimal charging even in chillier climates. Plus, fast-charging peaks at around 150kW, and onboard charging supports either 11kW or 22kW, depending on the model grade.
Adventure Looks Good on You
With grained black wheel arches, black alloy wheels, and Touring-specific roof rails (max load: 70kg), the bZ4X Touring looks the part. The rear’s been reworked too, with LED lights and a lower bumper giving it a more outdoorsy, modern vibe. And yes, there’s a slick new Brilliant Bronze colour option too.
Built to Last, Guaranteed to Go Far
Toyota’s BEV battery game is strong. The bZ4X Touring comes with up to 10 years or 650,000 miles of battery cover, thanks to the Battery Care Program—as long as you stick to the annual battery health check. That’s peace of mind with every plug-in.
