2023 TOYOTA BZ4X

EV Channels Review

Consumer Reports' "Talking Cars" episode provides a critical first look at the 2023 Toyota bZ4X. While acknowledging its spacious interior and comfortable ride, the review highlights significant drawbacks. The vehicle's electric range is deemed modest, and a concerning recall involving wheels detaching during operation is discussed. Furthermore, the report notes that Toyota has already exhausted its eligibility for EV tax credits, diminishing a key purchasing incentive. Ultimately, Consumer Reports states they will not be adding the bZ4X to their test program, indicating a lack of confidence in its overall value proposition despite its SUV form factor.
