The Electric Evolution: 2026 Toyota bZ (Standard NACS & Upgraded Range)

The Electric Evolution: 2026 Toyota bZ (Standard NACS & Upgraded Range) Description The 2026 Toyota bZ marks a significant turning point for Toyota’s electric ambitions in the US, dropping the "4X" suffix to lead a more streamlined, powerful EV lineup. This year’s "glow-up" addresses key owner feedback with a major range boost, now offering up to 314 miles on a single charge for the XLE FWD Plus trim. Performance sees a massive 50% jump in AWD models, with dual motors now pumping out 338 horsepower and dropping the 0-60 mph sprint to just 4.9 seconds. Most importantly for American drivers, the 2026 bZ adopts the North American Charging System (NACS) port as standard, providing native access to the Tesla Supercharger network. Inside, the cabin is elevated with a standard 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen, 64-color ambient lighting, and a refined "digital island" center console that eliminates high-gloss "piano black" for a more premium, durable feel.
