Toyota’s new generation of advanced Battery Electric vehicles deliver an uncompromising blend of power, reliability and performance. Our Battery Electric cars runs on electrical power alone and use no fuel for propulsion.
Charge the battery with electricity via a plug socket or Toyota HomeCharge at home, or using rapid public charging.*
The battery powers the electric motor, turning the wheels and driving the vehicle forward.
When the driver brakes and the vehicle decelerates, energy that would usually be lost during this process is sent to top up the battery.
A Hybrid vehicle switches between two power sources, a petrol engine and a self-charging◊◊◊ Hybrid battery. As the name implies, a Battery Electric vehicle runs on battery power alone. With no engine, it uses no fuel other than electricity and drives with no tailpipe emissions§§.
Modern Battery Electric vehicles can travel further than you may think. The latest Toyota bZ4X can travel hundreds of kilometers§ on a single full charge.
Our Battery Electric vehicles boast the same quality, durability and reliability as any other Toyota. Batteries are engineered to last the lifetime of the vehicle, and each one is covered by a 10-year/160,000 km*§§§ warranty, so you can enjoy complete peace of mind for years to come. When a battery reaches the end of its life, our take-back scheme ensures it is dealt with safely and responsibly.
From checking the status of battery and current driving range to programming recharging times and even pre-cooling/pre-heating the cabin, the MyToyota smartphone app helps you get the most out of your Tooyta Battery Electric.
* In order to ensure effective charging and preserve battery health over the life of the vehicle, DC Fast Charging power of the Toyota Battery Electric cars may be reduced temporarily (for roughly 24 hours) after two sessions per day (equivalent of two times 10% to 80% state of charge).
§ 411km to 512km on the WLTP cycle for the Toyota bZ4X. These range figures are estimates based on official homologation figures in a controlled environment (WLTP). These figures are provided solely for comparison purposes. Only compare them with other cars tested to the same technical procedures. The actual electric range value of your vehicle will vary from these calculated values, since many factors have an influence on a car's electric range.
Such factors include: selected grade, optional equipment and accessories fitted, driving style, speed, road conditions, traffic, vehicle condition, tyre type (summer/winter) and pressure, vehicle load, number of passengers, external temperature, battery temperature, etc. For more info about WLTP visit our website or contact your local Toyota Centre.
◊ Subject to annual health checks at a Toyota authorised service centre.
** An electrified car is one propelled by one or more electric motors to some extent. Some electrified cars, including Hybrids and Plug-in Hybrids, also have a petrol engine. Others, like the Toyota bZ4X, are entirely electric.
§§ Emissions may be associated with other aspects of the car’s life cycle (including its manufacture), from the production of electricity and from day-to-day usage, such as from the tyres and brakes.
◊◊ When you charge at home on an off-peak energy tariff. Does not include the cost of a HomeCharge wallbox.
*** Availability of the products may vary by country, and local offers may be different in each market. Customers are advised to check with their local Toyota Centre.
§§§Whichever occurs sooner.
◊◊◊In a self-charging Hybrid a combustion engine and one or more electric motors work together in one advanced powertrain. The motor boosts performance while also working as a generator to turn surplus energy into electrical charge, reducing fuel consumption.
