Frequently Asked Questions

What is the range of the Toyota bZ?

The range of the Toyota bZ varies by trim: the XLE FWD and XLE FWD Plus achieve an EPA-estimated 236 and 314 miles respectively, while the AWD models range from 278 to 288 miles. If you’re in South Dakota for example, climate change, tire choice, and temperature are all a factor in EV range. Driving on freeways for long stretches or using the AC excessively reduces driving range. The top spec should provide a decent drive through the state, but be aware that electric cars lose charge more rapidly in cold weather.

How long does it take to charge a bZ?

Using a DC fast charger and in ideal conditions Toyota says 30 minutes is sufficient to charge 10-80%. However, actual times vary due to the chargers available as well as conditions. Your BZ comes with an 11kw onboard charger, and the NACS charge port is ready for access to widespread charger infrastructure. When using Level 1 or 2 charging at home it’s easy to get a full charge overnight while driving your car daily.

Will the BZ handle a Watertown winter well?

If you purchase an all-wheel drive model, it likely will handle South Dakota winters adequately. The AWD uses a second electric motor and offers Toyota’s X-MODE system for improved performance in the snow. However, all EVs lose charge quicker in cold temperatures, and even with AWD you’ll need good winter tires. Even as you take a longer road trip, ensure you know how many charging points are available, as you may be charging less often.

Can a Toyota bZ hold enough for my daily needs?

For most people the answer is yes, the car seats 5, and carries a respectable 27.7 cubic feet of luggage space behind it. The bZ is flexible enough for a family of 5, or small loads of shopping or luggage. When you fold down the rear seats the capacity of the bZ becomes a great amount of space. It’s certainly no full size truck, but it does have everything you could possibly want for everyday trips.

Should I go for the FWD or AWD bZ?

It mostly comes down to your specific driving habits and location. The FWD models possess some of the best available range on one charge, and an AWD model has additional performance and some extra traction in less than ideal conditions. The extra electric motor on the AWD models will give you around 338 hp total. If you will mainly be driving on pavement then there are few benefits to getting an AWD model and the 314 mile range of the FWD XLE Plus should more than compensate.
