The bZ4X will launch with two powertrain options: a front-mounted single motor that produces 150kW, and a twin-motor all-wheel-drive version that has a total output of 160kW. That off-road ability comes at a cost in terms of range, though: the single motor has an official economy of 317 miles, compared to 286 miles for the AWD. The design of the cars front end is described by Toyota as avoiding “unnecessary distraction”, but it has a little more character than that might suggest. There’s a new ‘hammerhead’ shape and slim LED headlights, while the side profile gets a bit of go-anywhere rugged charm thanks to some chunky wheel arch mouldings. Inside, the bZ4X uses a number of sustainable materials, with the firm saying it’s intended to reflect the ‘ambience of a living room’ – reflected in the soft woven material on the dashboard. It’s all very clean and tidy, although a few bits of relatively cheap-feeling plastic were visible. That said, you sense it would all stand up well to the rigours of family life. There’s plenty of space, too, whether you’re sat in the front or back seats. In place of the transmission tunnel you’d find in an ICE car, Toyota has added a large centre console, which houses the drive mode select controls, a wireless charging pad and numerous storage cubbies. There’s a shelf beneath that for bags, and which replaces the glove box – which has been removed from the passenger side of the dash to open up the space even more.
