The engine

Dual Motor Electric (74.7 kWh)

Dual-Motor Electric AWD

Twin eAxles deliver instant, balanced all-wheel torque with a roughly 50 percent power jump over the old bZ4X, dropping the 0-60 sprint to under five seconds.

Built on Toyota's dedicated e-TNGA battery-electric platform, the foundation underpinning the bZ family co-developed with Subaru.

The 2026 model's eAxles adopt silicon-carbide semiconductors for higher output and better efficiency.
Every 2026 bZ ships with a native Tesla-style NACS charging port and a standard heat pump.
DC fast charging takes the pack from 10 to 80 percent in roughly 30 minutes under ideal conditions.
