Bold Performance and Extended Range Define the 2026 Toyota bZs
Toyota bZ delivers power like never before. The all-wheel-drive (AWD) model now delivers 338 horsepower—a whopping 50% increase over the previous model. The front-wheel-drive (FWD) model isn’t left out either, delivering 221 horsepower to provide silky-smooth, energetic propulsion on any road. But the best news? The Toyota bZ now has a 314-mile range on a single charge, up from 252 miles. This 25% boost brings the Toyota bZ into line with leading EVs in the class and puts range anxiety to rest for drivers.
In addition to power, the Toyota bZ delivers a smooth and responsive driving experience, making each trip not only efficient but exhilarating. With acceleration to keep up with competitors and engineering focused on performance, the Toyota bZ is less utility vehicle and more statement.
Future-Proofed Charging Tech Puts Toyota bZs in the Lead
EV charging shouldn’t be hard—and with Toyota bZ, it doesn’t need to be. This car is now standard with the North American Charging System (NACS), allowing drivers to tap into Tesla’s Supercharger network. That’s thousands of ready-at-hand charging stations around the country, and Plug & Charge convenience for simple, hands-free billing at compatible stations.
DC fast charging gets a major upgrade, too. In perfect conditions, the Toyota bZ can charge 10% to 80% in only 30 minutes. Whether you’re heading to work or out on a weekend road trip, the Toyota bZ ensures minimal downtime and maximum convenience.
Stylish Redesign and Next-Level Comfort in the New Toyota bZs
Toyota didn’t just focus on performance. The Toyota bZ launches with an even more elegant appearance on the outside and inside. With a more streamlined front grille, thin LED headlights, and body-colored fenders, this SUV has a futuristic and refined appearance. The Toyota bZ interior is like a high-end lounge—complete with a reimagined dashboard, a big 14-inch touchscreen, and adjustable ambient lighting in 64 colors.
Comfort is paramount here. Heated and ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, dual wireless chargers, and a 1,500-watt power outlet for devices make Toyota bZ the perfect road buddy. Toyota’s Safety Sense 3.0 suite comes standard, which includes adaptive cruise control, blind-spot monitoring, automatic emergency braking, and more—making every Toyota bZ drive safer and smarter.
Toyota bZs Pioneers the Charge in a Booming EV Industry
The U.S. EV market is on fire—and Toyota bZ is looking to get a larger piece of the action. Almost 300,000 EVs were sold in Q1 2025, and Toyota’s new offering couldn’t have arrived at a more opportune moment. With 18,570 units sold in 2024, Toyota is now set to increase its presence.
Toyota’s worldwide EV strategy features nine new fully electric models in Europe by 2026, and the Toyota bZ series (“beyond Zero”) is the key to making that happen. The Toyota bZ is not only a zero-emission SUV—it’s an electric value-packed drive for the modern American motorist.
Watch Out, Competition—The Toyota bZ Is Just Getting Started
The Toyota bZs isn’t only a new electric SUV—it’s Toyota’s reinvention in the world of EVs. With more intelligent design, better power, better range, and more tech, the Toyota bZs is poised to dominate. As it arrives in U.S. showrooms later this year, one thing’s for sure: the future of driving just became electrified—with the Toyota bZ at the forefront.
