In this video we do a walkaround of the car, we check the frunk, the trunk and the maximum cargo space. After that we take a look at the interior, the infotainment and sound system. Also we go OFFROAD, because this is the AWD version of the bZ4X, testing all X-Mode settings.
The 2023 Toyota bZ4X is built on the same e-TNGA platform as the Subaru Solterra.
2023 bZ4X price:
- US: starting MSRP $44,080
- United Kingdom: from £52,110
- The Netherlands: from €63,995
- Germany: from €57,390
The Toyota bZ4X AWD range is 470 km, according to WLTP. I got a real range of 350 km with a mixed use. When doing more highway kilometers, the range dropped to 270 km.
My average consumption was 20.5 kWh / 100 km, with some offroad, some urban and some highway driving. With more highway miles, average consumption went up to 22.5 kWh / 100 km.
The Toyota bZ4X has an interior in black SoftEx, our car is painted in Elemental Silver Metallic.
A lot of competitors in this EV segment: the Polestar 3, Volkswagen ID.4, Ford Mustang Mach E and the Tesla Model Y, to name a few.

Question! What do you think of this Toyota bZ4X? A good EV? Or are there better options out there I should consider in this segment?
1. Charging is very slow. Winter is slower. 2. Short battery life and weak power. 3. Terrible old interior. 4. Expensive price. There are so many better options than him. This car has been discontinued in China because no one bought it at all.
@@user-gi4ww3br5k ouch... and here it is only just coming to market. Note: the AC converter is made faster, this version has the 11 kW AC, before it was only 7.4 kW or something.
@@user-gi4ww3br5k thanks for sharing this! I've read from other owners that their cars are really slow charging (42 kW DC max), while my car did 140 kW charging. Interior isn't that state of the art indeed. And for the price there are better alternatives.
@@johnnypovdrives An auto blogger's evaluation in China. It took them 38 hours to charge for a distance of 1,700 kilometers. It takes an average of 12 hours to charge in three days. A total of 12 charges.
@@johnnypovdrives This car is very temperature dependent. Charging and battery life are different at different temperatures.
I love the way you do reviews, you don't talk more than is necessary, show cool features and we can focus on the car fully, it's great.
I try to keep it fast & to the point, who has time for 20 minute car reviews anyway. Thanks so much! ✌😄
Love it when I get to watch a video without annoying KZheadrs voice trying to be hyped, and sound like a 6 years olds that's drunk of helium
Thanks, glad to hear that! Note to self: leave helium at home.
Awesome detailed review
Man, I really like your videos! You are the best!
Thanks so much, that means a lot! 🙏🙏🙏
thank you!!!
Toyota getting better with most models... Liked this one after New Prius review

I really enjoy your content. What camera do you use?
Thanks! I just use a GoPro 9 actually. ✌️😅
It's in Holland?

Thanks for the Super Thanks MUROKRAL!! ✨🙏✨
Very nice car
The motor for that panoramic roof cover sounds slightly broken!
我很欣賞你們會試著看待不同國家不同品牌的車子，介紹出一個品牌的優缺點，即使這個品牌在電動車技術不如其他品牌，也不會像我們這裡的人只會不停的謾罵 歧視甚至抹黑，我覺得雖然豐田集團真的有很多需要改進的地方，我們應該是要給出一些有建設性的建議而不是批評，您非常值得我們學習
4:35 um what..? I just (ten minutes ago) finished to watch an Indiana Jones movie, I had the music in my head and you literally whistled it at the same time. we are connected man !
I was in your head the whole time 🤫
@@johnnypovdrives o-oh my...
@@achaz_ I know
I really like your clips, I have a few questions, can I send them to you privately?
Thanks! No you can send your questions here in the comments, it can only help others.
@@johnnypovdrives I would like to start recording cars, I'm interested in which camera you use and where you got all those cars to record?
@@MihajloKukolj-ko3lb let’s start with the easy part: the camera. I’m using a GoPro with a head mount. The hard part is getting the cars, I’ve been making car content for and with brands for many years, even before I started this channel. So it’s been a matter of building relations with car brand PR and marketing reps. Another way you could get cars is by asking garages if you could do test drives. Hope this helps!
@@johnnypovdrives thank you very much for your reply
@@MihajloKukolj-ko3lb You're welcome, good luck!
Greetings from Turkey, you forgot to put Turkish subtitles. Any chance to add it?
Hi! Well, I noticed that only 0.08 % of my viewers actually watch with Turkish subtitles. But I've just added them for you! ✌️😄
@@johnnypovdrives Thanks i following your videos!
@@yagzthe you are welcome. Hope the translation is ok, because it's an automated translation!
I love the machine. It's classic.❤❤
Bu araç konusunda en merak ettiğim ve Toyota ‘nın bu konuda vereceği cevabı merak ettiğim sorum şu ; “Eğer diğer firmalar tamamen elektrikli otomobiller üretmeye başlamasa Toyota bu otomobili çıkarmak için kaç yıl daha beklerdi ?” Saygılarımla …
Jij bent mijn fav auto youtuber, vraagje: hoe kom je aan al die chique nieuwe wagens?
Merci Yannick! Ik ben al jaren bezig met autoreviews en zo is er stilaan vertrouwen gegroeid bij de merken. Maar da's dus niet evident, véél geduld voor nodig :).
@@johnnypovdrives Hopelijk heb je die modder in de motorruimte ook nog proper gekregen dan ;) anderzijds lijkt het me wel sterk dat dat niet beter afgeschermd is.
@@Svenamenu neen, ik heb hem zo teruggebracht... maar heb wel gezegd dat ze eens onder de motorkap moesten checken ✌😅
I feel like I'm having a stroke every time I read the name "bZ4X".
Yeah. It sounds like: Busy for ex. 😉😂
👌😂 It reads: "Beyond Zero" (don't know why the 'b' in 'bZ' is not in capitals) - "4" (as an hommage to the RAV4) - "X" (because it's a crossover). Simple!
What about ID.4 GTX or Ariya e-4ORCE….
@@stoffelof3293 ID.4 GTX: kzhead.info/sun/e5RmYqWAcGanbHk/bejne.html Actually LOVE the Ariya, but haven't driven it yet.
Does it comes with the extra wheel?
👌😂
We had 2 major software updates this summer in the Netherlands, now a real world range of 450km, for the Solterra with awd, 350km. Far more efficient EV motors, far better charging and still 10 years warranty. They had namy other issues fixed. It was tested against the VW Id4, the Bz4x was the far better car, considering the small battery pack, a very good range of 450km. Buikd quality far better than the Id4 as well. The Solterra was tested in awd, dual motors, against Audi's Etron q4, the Solterra was winner....far more comfort, far better quality, efficient motors and 350km real world range.
sound like a completely different car, that's what the bZ4X should have been from the start, thanks for letting me know! 👌
Show
😎👍💪
So you went 85mph (137kmh). Is that a legal speed in the states? The UK has a max of 70mph. I usually watch videos with some audible dialogue, but I have to say that these videos are certainly to the point with no waffle. Lots of info, which some youtubers would leave out. Well-made videos.
i want to be like you, make content just by doing ur hobbies, how u could a get a nice car like every video u have?
Thanks John! I've been doing written reviews, photo and video car content for years. The first years were very hard to get cars, but now things are starting to work out with the car brands.
i feel like this would have been a great car if released 5 years ago... but in 2023 it's bottom of the pack. hope they can come back in a few years and do better, especially on the software front tesla set a new standard for software/apps and they'll def be the ones to catch in that regard.
一天能用几次快充？
这里没有次数限制。但对于bZ4X，建议每天快速充电不要超过2次。 🤷♂️
1. I think the "Ora (Funky) Cat" is sold in the UK, at least Fully Charged tested it a while ago. It looks...well...peculiar, but is yet another well (enough) built, affordable smaller EV from China, so that's something. We're gonna see many, many more of those in the coming years for sure. 2. From what I have heard/read, Toyota hated, HATED EVs with a passion and had been on the forefront of anti-EV-propaganda for years, doing everything in their power to slow down the movement. As such it does not surprise me to see such a half-hearted attempt after years of neglect. And this even though Toyota used to be an important player for decades, great value cars for the whole world, not to mention their fantastic offerings regarding the bridge technology of hybrid drive trains. Hopefully it is true what the news say and the new leadership will bring positive change to the #1 car maker in the world - the EV revolution could really use their support! 🤞🏻
1. exactly. And I don't want to give up on them, I read quite a lot of hate here when it comes to Chinese cars. 2. thanks for the info, I had no idea! I'm driving the hybrid Corolla now, and you can see that they master that technology really wel.
6:31 "Hope to see you next time.." WDYM? DO I HAVE TO WORRY?
No worries, I'll be back. And I hope you come see my new car review when it's ready! ✌😄
@@johnnypovdrives Of course! I love your videos 💖
@@cesarerufo2798 Thanks! ✨🙏✨
The charging and range for this car is way over stated. I only get 42kw max when fast charging.
Strange, I got 147 kW DC out of it.
@@johnnypovdrives The AWD models only get 100 kw max. When I charge mine at a 150kw capable station I get 42-43. This is in California and the battery below 10%. I complained to Toyota and they said this was normal. Im so disappointed in them and now Im stuck with this car.
@@tonyha9979 Here I am charging at 140kW, with an AWD model... (on another YT channel - in Dutch, sorry). Battery is at 10% at a 300 kW capable station in Belgium) kzhead.info/sun/ddyLgp1lo6uhmmw/bejne.html So it's not normal that you get only 42 max... unless they've changed something in the cars since and this model has newer / better charging capabilities, it also does 11 kW AC instead of 7.4.
My dream EV Car is here.
But blue
2.00
Hate that black wing design, I would want it all one colour than this cheaper design
maybe you could wrap it... no idea. Can't even imagine what a bZ4X with painted wings would look like.
Um my dad has this car
I really do need toyata bz4x vehicle ❤

垃圾车。非常的垃圾，在中国市场一点竞争力都没有。老旧的内饰，垃圾的电池和充电速度以及续航低。最离谱的是这样的垃圾竟然要27万人民币。
是的，所以我听说.显然，有一些中国的电动车品牌，我真的应该测试。 比亚迪、沃亚、欧拉。 但在比利时很难买到。
DON'T TELL ANYTHING
STOP TALKING CHINESE
@@MBV-AG Is that even Chinese? I just let Google translate and translate back. 😄
@@johnnypovdrives Yes. This is Chinese. I can understand.You should test a lot of Chinese electric cars.
