From the hypothetical picture, the new car adopts a more rounded body shape, the front face adopts a closed grille and a penetrating LED daytime running light design, while the headlights are split headlights layout, the overall look is full of technology. The blackened grille under the front lip adds a sporty feel to the car.
The bZ3 will be built on Toyota's e-TNGA EV architecture and will be equipped with one or two electric motors. One of the dual-motor versions, with a maximum output of more than 149 kilowatts and equipped with the Toyota e-Four electronically controlled all-wheel drive system, will directly counter the upcoming Volkswagen ID.3 GTX electric hatchback.
In terms of endurance, according to previous reports, a large battery pack of 71.4 kWh will be provided in the bZ3, which will give it a cruising range of more than 500 kilometers.
In addition to the upcoming bZ3, Toyota will also launch a large seven-seat electric SUV, an electric Tacoma pickup, an electric sports car, and an electric successor to the FJ Cruiser. Similarly, in Lexus, in addition to the RZ that has already been unveiled, a four-seat electric convertible and a station wagon will also be launched in the future.
