Toyota’s all-electric compact SUV, the 2025 bZ4X, returns with exciting upgrades and a more compelling value than ever before. With a lower starting price, new tech features, and improved charging capabilities, it’s clear that Toyota has fine-tuned this EV to better meet the needs of everyday drivers. Whether you’re new to electric vehicles or shopping for a stylish, tech-savvy alternative to gas-powered SUVs, here are the top five features that make the 2025 Toyota bZ4X stand out:
1. Competitive Range & Performance Options
With multiple configurations to choose from, the bZ4X is more versatile than you might expect from an EV.
Front-wheel-drive (FWD) models offer 201 horsepower and up to 252 miles of EPA-estimated range—great for daily commutes and longer trips alike.
Opt for all-wheel drive (AWD) and get 214 horsepower and up to 228 miles of range, along with improved traction for wet or wintry conditions.
It’s a balance of efficiency and performance that makes the bZ4X a great fit for drivers who want practical power without range anxiety.
2. Faster Charging with Battery Preconditioning
One of the most important upgrades for 2025 is the improved DC fast-charging experience. The bZ4X now features:
150 kW fast-charging capability, letting you go from 10% to 80% in about 30 minutes.
Battery preconditioning, which warms up the battery before charging in cold temperatures—an especially useful feature in cooler climates.
Toyota is also offering one year of free EVgo fast charging, making it easier for new EV owners to hit the road with confidence.
3. Modern, High-Tech Interior
Step inside the bZ4X and you’ll find a driver-focused cockpit with an upscale vibe and practical layout. Standard tech includes:
- 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Customizable digital gauge cluster
- Multiple USB‑C ports, wireless phone charging, and available JBL premium audio on higher trims
4. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0

5. Sleek New Nightshade Edition
