Unique Design with a Familiar SUV-Feel

The 2025 Toyota bZ4X is available in XLE, Limited, and Nightshade grades. The XLE and Limited models come in a choice of Front- or All-Wheel Drive, with the Nightshade grade coming in AWD only. The bZ4X's smartly styled SUV package has seating for up to five, ample rear cargo space, and available SofTex^®-trimmed seating.

The bZ4X engineering team looked to challenge conventions with its design. It balances unique, futuristic style while offering a familiar SUV package. Based on the design theme "hi-tech and emotional," bZ4X is fit for a multifaceted lifestyle – offering originality that stands out in an urban cityscape coupled with available AWD for all-weather capability and confident on-road driving dynamics.

In terms of size, the bZ4X sits squarely in the middle of the small SUV segment. It is 3.7 inches longer than the RAV4, at 184.6 inches, with a 6.3-inch longer wheelbase at 112.2 inches. It is 2.0 inches lower than RAV4 at 65.0 inches high, and 0.2 inches wider, at 73.2 inches. bZ4X offers a comfortable 42.1 inches of legroom for the front seat and 35.3 inches for passengers in the rear seat. Cargo volume is 27.7 cubic feet behind the second row.

The 2025 bZ4X offers a variety of exterior color options, including single and two-tone paint treatments. Black is a standard color and Heavy Metal, Supersonic Red, Elemental Silver Metallic, and Wind Chill Pearl are all extra-cost colors. On the Nightshade grade, standard colors include Black, Heavy Metal with a black roof, or Wind Chill Pearl with a black roof. The Limited grade offers all standard colors plus Supersonic Red, Heavy Metal, or Wind Chill Pearl with black roof two-tone combinations.

The bZ4X cockpit embodies a new generation of mobility with a design that helps the driver keep their eyes on the road and their hands on the wheel. Thanks to the BEV-dedicated platform, the engineering team achieved an extra wide interior cabin that results in a spacious, quiet and relaxing space for driver and passengers alike. The cabin allows for ample legroom for both front and rear seats as well as copious side-to-side space in the rear – further contributing to a feeling of home-like comfort.

With the roominess one would expect from an SUV, the placement of surrounding elements is also engineered with purpose. Acoustic glass and wind-noise reduction features provide a quiet refuge in the cabin from the world outside. The standard fixed panoramic roof provides a feeling of openness to bring the outside environment into the vehicle when needed, and a power sunshade to keep it out when not needed. Premium details continue throughout too, like piano-black elements on the center console and soft-touch material on the dash.

The hub of the cockpit is positioned around a shared center console that functions like a table with storage for a smartphone with available wireless charging coupled with a transparent lid. The accessible USB ports (A and C) offer power and connection points in convenient locations. The door handles are a specialized shape designed to be more ergonomic, making them easier to grip.

Electrified Powertrain, Electrifying Performance

The bZ4X offers the capable performance you'd expect from an SUV coupled with the smooth, fun driving performance inherent in an all-electric vehicle. Due largely in part to the maximum torque available at the first RPM. No torque ramp-up, no power bands – just throw-you-back-in-your-seat responsiveness.

Offered in both Front-Wheel Drive (FWD) and All-Wheel Drive (AWD), the all-electric bZ4X produces 201HP for FWD models and 214HP for AWD models. Thanks to the instantaneous torque of all-electric drivetrain, the bZ4X has an estimated 0-60 acceleration time of 7.1 seconds for FWD and 6.5 seconds for AWD.

The bZ4X's impressive driving performance is due in part to the BEV-dedicated e-TNGA platform. Through this architecture, bZ4X achieves a low center of gravity and greater rigidity thanks to the high-capacity Lithium-Ion battery pack placed flat under the floor. The engineering team aimed to achieve the utility typically offered in small SUVs, along with smooth and powerful driving performance one would expect from an electric vehicle.

The bZ4X's handling prowess is also due in part to the battery cross-framing structure, which adds to overall vehicle rigidity. The use of a lightweight body structure with sections of high tensile steel reinforced frame components around the battery pack coupled with a dynamic suspension contribute to the agile responsiveness of bZ4X. An intelligent throttle feature provides a smoother feel when accelerating and decelerating and Vehicle Stability Control provides impressive control on slippery roads. When driving in the Regenerative Braking with Boost Mode and you're not on the accelerator, additional regenerative braking is applied to recapture even more lost energy and help slow you down with less reliance on the brake pedal.

Available All-Wheel Drive with X-MODE^®

The bZ4X also offers surprisingly impressive driving performance with the X-MODE system on bZ4X AWD-equipped models. This system is intended for a capable-yet-comfortable driving experience suited for everyday driving and off-pavement exploration. Coupled with Multi-terrain Select, the AWD system with X-MODE can be used in two modes (Snow/Dirt and Deep Snow/Mud) to tackle slippery or uneven surfaces. In both modes, the system applies the brakes on spinning wheels to produce a limited-slip differential (LSD) effect for additional traction.

Engage Snow/Dirt Mode with X-MODE to enhance vehicle stability and improve traction on bumpy or unpaved roads or certain snow-covered surfaces. Deep Snow/Mud Mode helps to tackle softer road surfaces covered by heavy snow, providing more vehicle stability by allowing the tires to slip in a way that clears away snow or mud. And in downhill situations that require the driver to apply heavy braking, Downhill Assist Control helps maintain a constant speed to allow the driver to concentrate on steering. Another ingenious feature of the AWD system with X-MODE is Grip-Control, a low-speed system that leverages motor drive power modulation to achieve capable off-road performance. This feature was developed as an added function to determine road surface characteristics and maintain a constant speed to prevent slipping on rough roads.

Active Safety & Driver Assist Technology

The bZ4X features Toyota Safety Sense 3.0™ (TSS 3.0), Toyota's latest suite of active safety and driver assistance features. The goal of TSS is to help prevent or mitigate accidents and ease the burden on drivers. This system uses a combination of millimeter wave radar and monocular camera to monitor various driving conditions. Please note that Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 systems are not a substitute for safe and attentive driving, you can find an online version of the Owner's Manual here for instructions and limitations. This standard suite of features includes:

• Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection (PCS w/PD): Designed to help detect a vehicle, pedestrian, bicyclist, or motorcyclist and provide an audio/visual forward-collision warning under certain circumstances. If a driver does not react, the system is designed to provide automatic emergency braking.

• Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control (DRCC): Intended for highway use, DRCC is an adaptive cruise control system that is designed to be set at speeds above 20 MPH and uses vehicle-to-vehicle distance control to help maintain a preset distance from the vehicle ahead.

• Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA): When white/yellow lane markings or certain road-edge boundary lines are detected at speeds above 30 MPH, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist (LDA w/SA) is designed to issue an audio/visual lane departure warning if an inadvertent lane departure is detected. If the driver does not take corrective action, the system is also designed to provide gentle corrective steering for lane-keeping assistance.

• Lane Tracing Assist (LTA): When DRCC is enabled and lane markers are detected, LTA uses the lines on the road and/or preceding vehicles to provide active driving assistance and help keep the vehicle centered in its lane. While LTA is activated, the Emergency Driving Stop System (EDSS) is designed to monitor the driver's inputs, such as steering operation. If the EDSS determines the driver is not attentive and the driver does not respond to prompts to resume control of the vehicle, it can bring the vehicle to a stop under certain conditions.

• Automatic High Beams (AHB): Designed to help drivers see more clearly at night. At speeds above 21 MPH, the AHB system is designed to detect the headlights of oncoming vehicles and taillights of preceding vehicles, then automatically toggle between high and low beams accordingly.

• Road Sign Assist (RSA): Using an intelligent camera, RSA is designed to detect speed limit signs, stop signs, Do Not Enter signs, yield signs and certain warning signs, and display an icon of the sign on the Multi-Information Display.

• Proactive Driving Assist (PDA): When system operating conditions are met, using the vehicle's camera and radar, PDA provides gentle braking into curves or gentle braking and/or steering to help support driving tasks such as distance control between the vehicle and a preceding vehicle, pedestrian, or bicyclist.

Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert is also standard on all grades. The BSM system uses rear side radar sensors installed on the inner side of the rear bumper on the left and right side to assist the driver in confirming safety when changing lanes. The RCTA function uses the same sensors installed behind the rear bumper. This function is intended to assist the driver in checking areas that are not easily visible when backing up.

Safe Exit Alert is also standard on bZ4X. This system is designed to detect vehicles or cyclists approaching from the rear and judges if there is a possibility of a collision with an opened door or passengers who are exiting. Safe Exit Alert will illuminate an indicator in the outer mirror and provide an audibly alert to notify vehicle occupants.

The bZ4X is also equipped with Toyota's Star Safety System, standard. This system includes Vehicle Stability Control (VSC), Traction Control (TRAC), Anti-lock Brake System (ABS), Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD), Brake Assist (BA) and Smart Stop Technology^® (SST).

As previously mentioned, the bZ4X Limited grade adds driver assistance features for the 2025 model year that include Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Change Assist, and Front Cross-Traffic Alert, standard. The Limited grade also includes a standard Panoramic View Monitor with Perimeter Scan including 360-degree Overhead View in low-speed drive and reverse, and Curb View.

In terms of battery safety, Toyota uses many measures to help protect cell integrity, thanks to the design and a multiple monitoring system intended to protect the vehicle's battery system. This includes:

• Redundant monitoring of battery voltage, current and temperature designed to detect signs of abnormal heating to maintain optimal battery temperature and help prevent cell damage

• Utilization of a high-resistance coolant circulation system is designed to help prevent fire from short circuits even in high battery load conditions due to repeatedly switching between high-speed driving and rapid charging

• Integration of the high-capacity battery pack within the floor of the body frame structure is designed with protection in mind
