A month after its sibling, the Subaru Solterra, saw a comprehensive update for the 2026 model year, the Toyota bZ has followed suit. If you find that name a little unfamiliar, you’re not alone, but it’s the company’s new name for the old bZ4X electric crossover, which suffered a bit from middling power and back-of-the-pack electric credentials. The 2026 Toyota bZ is far more competitive in every aspect important to EV shoppers, with a maximum range that goes from 252 miles on the old model to 314 miles on the new one, as well as faster charging, a standard NACS plug, and a lot more power.
