The all-new, first-ever Toyota BZ4X marks the Japanese automotive giant’s re-entry into the rapidly-growing EV space.
The 2023 BZ4X features an interior that looks like something from the metaverse and a futuristic exterior styling that creates an iconic presence and separates it from the rest of Toyota’s extensive lineup.
The BZ4X’s powertrains deliver zippy acceleration, and shoppers can choose between a front-wheel or an all-wheel drive setup. If you’re considering leasing a 2023 Toyota BZ4X, here are a few things to note.
Engine And Performance
The new BZ4X starts life with a front-wheel-drive setup that features a single electric motor mounted on its rear axle. This setup uses a 63.4-kWh battery pack and is responsible for 201 horses and 196 Ib-ft of torque. Opting for the all-wheel drive introduces a dual-motor setup and a 65.5-kWh battery. This arrangement kicks out 215 hp and 248 lb-ft of torque. The BZ4X boasts zippy acceleration, but its powertrains numbers are still behind the top dogs in this segment. Its all-wheel-drive dual-electric motor model gets a zero-to-60 time of 6.4 seconds. The BZ4X impresses with its decent road manners and regenerative braking feature.
Driving Range And Battery Life
According to EPA, the max driving range estimate for the front-wheel-drive, single-motor setup is 252 miles, while the dual-motor model earns up to 228 miles. The BZ4X also gets a sensational max rating of 131 MPGe in the city and up to 107 MPGe on the highway.
Interior
The new BZ4X’s interior is unlike what you get in a regular Toyota. It sports a futuristic design and is even more practical than you’d expect. The dashboard is adorned with soft-touch materials that feel upscale, and quality synthetic leather seats are standard. The center display is a large 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple Carplay and Android Auto integration. A 7.0-inch digital display sits behind the steering wheel to provide the driver with navigation and vehicle information. While a six-speaker audio system is standard, we are confident most shoppers won’t hesitate to upgrade to the optional nine-speaker JBL premium sound system.
Safety And Driver Assistance
Typical of new Toyota models, the BZ4X receives a myriad of Toyota’s latest safety and driver assistance technologies, including the Toyota Safety Sense 3.0. Here’s a list of some of the key safety features of the 2023 BZ4X;
- Pre-collision system with pedestrian and cyclist detection
- Full-speed range dynamic radar cruise control
- Automated emergency braking
- Panoramic view monitor (360°)
- Lane tracing assist
- Road sign detection
- Automatic high beams
- Lane departure alert with steering assist
- Blind spot monitor with rear cross-traffic alert and safe exit assist
- Front and rear parking assist with automatic braking, etc.
