Toyota bZ4X Interior
The bZ4X is about Toyota RAV4-sized, meaning it is about 4.7 metres long, 1.9m wide and 1.7m tall. It sits on a 2850mm wheelbase, and that's longer than a RAV4's.
The interior is bisected by a longitudinal bi-level console up front, offering plenty of storage as well as a handy arm rest. The driver sits in front of a digital instrumentation pod, while over at the centre of the dash is a 12.3-inch touchscreen.
Ventilation is excellent, the driving position is first class, and the quality of materials and trim surpass expectations.
That long wheelbase also translates to heaps of space front and back, with plenty of legroom as well as clearances for shoulders, heads and hips.
Among the many amenities are USB ports, air vents for all all and a good-sounding audio system, as part of an advanced multimedia set-up.
Toyota bZ4X Colours
The Toyota bZ4X is available in six monotone colours: 'Astral Black', 'Dark Blue', 'Platinum White Pearl', 'Precious Metal Pearl', 'Scarlet Flare' and 'Sterling Silver'.
It also comes in five bi-tone finishes that combine coloured bodywork with a contrasting black roof and pillars.
- Astral Black
- Dark Blue
- Platinum White Pearl
- Precious Metal Pearl
- Scarlet Flare
- Sterling Silver
Toyota bZ4X Seats
The bZ4X is a five-seater midsized SUV. The front bucket seats are slightly sculptured and braced for extra support, and offer electric adjustment.
The rear seat is split 60/40, with the backrest part reclining a little for added comfort. While being able to take three people across, it has a centre armrest with cupholders.
Toyota bZ4X Boot Space
There is 452 litres of boot capacity (VDA). That’s about 90L short of a RAV4.
Toyota bZ4X Speed
The Toyota bZ4X with just the front motor driving the front wheels can scoot to 100km from standstill (0-100km/h) in 7.5 seconds, while the AWD version with a second motor on the rear axle can do it in 6.9s. Top speed is 160km/h.

Toyota bZ4X Accessories
Toyota has yet to confirm equipment levels for Australia.
We're expecting to see an 8.0-inch touchscreen in base grades, or a 12.3-inch unit in higher versions.
Look for a long list of driver-assist safety tech, such as autonomous emergency braking (AEB), lane keep alert/assist and blind-spot alert/assist systems and adaptive cruise.
All models might also boast a powered driver’s seat, heated front seats, a powered tailgate and 18-inch alloy wheels all as standard.
Toyota bZ4X Range
The bZ4X FWD manages 516km of WLTP range on the standard 18-inch wheels and 436km on optional 20-inch alloys, while the heavier AWD returns 470km of range on 18s and just 411km on 20s.
