Compared with the crazy expansion of new forces, Toyota, the leader of traditional car companies, is more conservative on the road to electrification, but the general trend of electrification is irreversible, and Toyota is also well aware of this, and its Toyota bZ4x from the e-TNGA architecture has been officially released overseas, and the domestic version of FAW Toyota was released on March 24. Since then, the production and launch of new vehicles are also in full swing. It is reported that FAW Toyota Beyond Zero bZ4X will officially open pre-sale on April 28. Let's take a brief look back at this new car.
The new car is positioned as a pure electric mid-size SUV and will be available in two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive power options. The new vehicle is expected to roll off production in June 2022.
In terms of appearance, the new car has changed the moderate and atmospheric style of the previous model, and the overall style is more radical and dynamic. In the front part, the new car adopts the closed front grille of the mainstream of pure electric vehicles, with narrow headlights on both sides, which is more exquisite and stylish. The new car designs exaggerated spoilers on both sides of the front surround, and with the black trim below, the personality and sports temperament can be seen at a glance.
Looking at the side, the most eye-catching is the contrasting design of the wheel eyebrows, with the upper slip body shape, making the whole car more sporty. In addition, the black treatment of the door and window trim with the two-color rim also makes it more stylish. Unfortunately, the new car does not use the current popular hidden door handle. In terms of body size, the new car has a length, width and height of 4690/1860/1650mm, and a wheelbase of 2850mm. It is worth mentioning that the top version of the new car will also provide digital keys and solar charging functions.
In the rear part of the car, the angular through-line taillights are in stark contrast with the previous "Toyota", and the sense of technology and fashion is more intense. The exaggerated diffuser below and the dual spoilers above make the entire rear of the car more sporty.
In terms of interior, the biggest surprise of the new car is the "special-shaped steering wheel" that resembles the steering wheel of a racing car, but it seems to be only equipped on the top model. In addition, the most eye-catching thing is the large-size suspension central control screen and the suspension full LCD instrument panel, which adds a bit of technology to the car.
In terms of power, the new car will be available in two-wheel drive and four-wheel drive versions, of which the two-wheel drive version of the motor is arranged on the front axle, with a maximum power of 150 kilowatts (204 hp); the four-wheel drive version is equipped with two front and rear dual motors, and the combined maximum power will reach 160 kilowatts. In terms of endurance, under the comprehensive working conditions of WLTC, the cruising range is 500 kilometers.
