In November 2021, Toyota unveiled its first all-electric SUV. The bZ4X, despite its odd name, promises modest performance and range, as well as five-passenger seating and a slew of electronics. It will go on sale later this spring, and Toyota is finally ready to reveal price.
The base price for the 2023 bZ4X is $42,000, but it doesn’t include a $1,215 destination and delivery fee. That brings the total out-of-the-door price to $43,215 for an XLE trim level with only the front wheels rotating. On the other end of the spectrum, there’s the bZ4X Limited with all-wheel drive, which serves as the line’s flagship. That’ll cost you $49,995, which is technically under $50,000. That is, of course, before any alternatives are added.
