Toyota is stepping up its game in the electric vehicle market with the introduction of the bZ4X Touring, a rugged, off-road-focused variant of its popular bZ4X SUV. Set to hit UK roads in the spring of next year, this new model promises not just more space but also more power, making it an exciting option for adventure seekers and families alike.<\/p>\n

What Makes the bZ4X Touring Stand Out?<\/p>\n

At first glance, the bZ4X Touring is a sight to behold. With an added length of 140mm and a height increase of 20mm compared to the standard bZ4X, it\u2019s designed to tackle more than just city streets. This model boasts a host of rugged design elements that enhance its off-road capabilities. Think thicker rear light bars, a chunkier rear bumper, and even roof rails for that added utility. The exclusive Brilliant Bronze paint scheme gives it a distinctive look, setting it apart from its more urban-focused counterparts.<\/p>\n

But it\u2019s not just about aesthetics. The Touring variant offers a significant boost in practicality, with an impressive 600 litres of boot space\u2014148 litres more than the standard SUV. This makes it one of the most spacious options in the electric vehicle market, surpassing competitors like the Volkswagen ID.5 and BYD Sealion 7. Whether you\u2019re packing for a weekend getaway or just need to haul groceries, this extra space is a game changer.<\/p>\n

How Powerful is the bZ4X Touring?<\/p>\n

When it comes to performance, the bZ4X Touring doesn\u2019t disappoint. Thanks to its collaboration with Subaru, which emphasizes a balanced all-wheel-drive system with two identical motors on either axle, this model delivers a robust 376bhp. That\u2019s a noticeable jump from the standard SUV\u2019s 338bhp, making it the most powerful electric vehicle Toyota has on offer. For those who prefer a more economical option, a single-motor setup producing 221bhp will also be available.<\/p>\n

The Touring is powered by a new 74.4kWh battery, slightly larger than the previous 73.1kWh pack. While the exact range for the Touring hasn\u2019t been disclosed yet, the standard bZ4X can achieve up to 318 miles on a single charge, which gives us a hint of the Touring\u2019s potential.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s Inside the bZ4X Touring?<\/p>\n

Step inside, and you\u2019ll find a familiar but upgraded interior that mirrors the latest bZ4X. The centerpiece is a sleek 14.0-inch infotainment screen, which is sure to keep you connected on your journeys. A new center console design adds a modern touch, while the addition of a City Moss color option gives the interior a fresh vibe. It\u2019s clear that Toyota is aiming to combine functionality with style in this model.<\/p>\n

Pricing and Availability<\/p>\n

While specific pricing details for the bZ4X Touring are yet to be announced, the current bZ4X range tops out at around \u00a354,000. Given the added features and capabilities of the Touring, it\u2019s reasonable to expect a premium, but many enthusiasts are likely to find it worth the investment.<\/p>\n

The big takeaway? The bZ4X Touring isn\u2019t just about being an electric SUV; it\u2019s about embracing adventure with style and power. If you\u2019re in the market for a versatile vehicle that can handle both everyday errands and weekend escapades, keep an eye out for this exciting new addition to Toyota\u2019s lineup. Start planning your next adventure, and you might just find that the bZ4X Touring is the perfect companion to take you there.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

\"2025<\/a><\/p>\n

New range-topper is twin to the Subaru Trailseeker and the most powerful Toyota EV on sale<\/p>\n

\n

Toyota<\/a> has revealed a stretched, off-road-focused variant of its bZ4X<\/a> electric SUV\u00a0that brings more space and more power.<\/p>\n

The bZ4X Touring will arrive in the UK next spring\u00a0and, as the name suggests, it is an off-Tarmac estate version of the three-year-old EV that adds 140mm in length, 20mm in height\u00a0and a host of rugged design elements.<\/p>\n

Clearly a twin of the new Subaru Trailseeker<\/a> – both use the same e-TNGA platform \u2013 the Touring gets more boot space than its standard SUV equivalent, with an increase of 148 litres to 600 litres. This takes it above the likes of the similarly sized Volkswagen ID 5<\/a> and BYD Sealion 7 <\/a>to make it one of the most cavernous on the electric car <\/a>market.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s more, thanks to Subaru<\/a>\u2019s push for the Trailseeker to feature two identical motors on either axle for better off-road balance (going against Toyota\u2019s previous philosophy of a bigger rear motor), the new Touring puts out 376bhp, up from the SUV\u2019s 338bhp. This cements it as the most powerful electric Toyota available. A 221bhp single-motor set-up is also offered.<\/p>\n

Power is drawn from a new 74.4kWh (usable) battery, up from the recently updated car\u2019s 73.1kWh pack. A range figure has yet to be disclosed, but the standard SUV offers up to 318 miles in its most efficient form.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Visually, the Touring is more of a rugged proposition than the standard SUV. While it adopts the new front-end look of the recently updated bZ4X SUV, the Touring also features the Trailseeker\u2019s thicker rear light bar and chunkier rear bumper. In addition, it gains roof rails, blackened wheel arches and an exclusive Brilliant Bronze paint scheme.<\/p>\n

Inside, the Touring adopts the same interior as the latest bZ4X, which features a new centre console and 14.0in infotainment screen. For the Touring, a City Moss colour has been added.<\/p>\n

Pricing and full UK specifications for the new range-topping variant will be revealed later this year, Toyota says.
