For Toyota's first pure electric vehicle, the Toyota bZ4X, everyone has a very different view. Some more radical young people feel that it is outdated, and even feel that Toyota's transformation is slightly perfunctory. There are also many consumers who hold conservative opinions on pure trams, they do not value what sense of technology and intelligent configuration, but think that Toyota bZ4X is a pure electric product that is more in line with current needs. From their respective standspoint, there is nothing wrong with their views. However, it may also be thanks to the development of new car-making forces and domestic new energy, at least through their internal roll, so that the traditional fuel field such as Toyota, Volkswagen and other bigwigs in the field of fuel can keep a low profile in terms of price.
As for the Toyota bZ4X car, it is actually a product that is very much in line with Toyota's car concept. First of all, the appearance is very conventional, but the original grille has been changed to a closed front face, and the light group shape is similar to the headlight design of the Asian dragon. The body shape also looks like a fuel car, at least now the domestic new energy SUV is almost standard hidden door handle it has not been used. The through-type taillights are slightly out of place on the thick tail, probably because the traditional mechanical door handle makes it too much like a fuel car, and this extremely simple taillight gives it a bit of a tram feel.
The interior part has attracted a lot of attention to a rectangular steering wheel before, at least it is still very exciting to look forward to the same model as Tesla. However, it can be seen that many test drives are still used on the conventional circular steering wheel, it is estimated that this device that is somewhat attractive to young consumers is likely to become an optional accessory. In addition, the obvious difference with other products of the same level is the position of the LCD instrument, compared to the design of most domestic new energy vehicles full LCD instrument, Toyota bZ4X this LCD instrument is not only relatively small in size, the position is also very close to the front windshield, that is, with the conventional steering wheel Some of the impact on the line of sight, if matching the rectangular steering wheel released before is to pull the visual effect to the maximum.
In terms of materials, it is also very "Toyota", and the center console uses fabric material, which does save a lot of costs for Toyota. But for consumers, this fabric fabric is not easy to clean up once it is stained with something dirty, and there is no texture, which is a bit low. However, because of the large distance between it and the front seats, its rear space is quite abundant under the wheelbase of 2850mm, which is one of its advantages.
Toyota bZ4X currently has two endurance versions of the model, the single-motor front-drive version of the WLTC under the cruising range of 500km, the dual-motor four-wheel drive version of the model is almost the endurance, only 460km. It has not been able to compare with Tesla Model Y and BYD Tang EV, and its competitiveness in terms of mileage is not so strong. There is naturally no smart cockpit and driving hardware like the new car-making forces, so it can be seen that the practical energy on the Toyota fuel vehicle body still continues to the Toyota bZ4X. Although the Toyota bZ4X came later than the Volkswagen ID. series, it is also because of the time dividend, and this landmark product is not necessarily worse than the Volkswagen ID. series.
However, everyone also knows that Toyota's fuel vehicles sell well, are stable, fuel-efficient, and maintain value, so the consumer population is relatively conservative. But the current consumers who will buy pure trams are just the opposite, so it is foreseeable that it is likely to face the same dilemma as the volkswagen ID. series transformation. In short, the state that Toyota bZ4X faces after domestic production is: consumers who will buy pure electric SUVs do not get to the selling point, turn around and look at Tesla Model Y and Weilai ES6. Consumers who think it is good only buy fuel vehicles or models such as plug-ins? This situation is actually very similar to BYD's Don EV. In addition, although its model naming is very meaningful, it is really a bit awkward, and it will be localized by FAW Toyota and GAC Toyota after that, which will also be a new hotspot.
