2024 Toyota bZ4X AWD review: Why driving Toyota’s first electric car on dirt is like chucking a Giraffe in a pool … Really

EV Central

Delivering the bZ4X’s range is a 71.4kWh lithium-ion battery. Anyway, even the cheapest 2WD bZ4X gets things like LED lighting, 20-inch alloys and a powered boot. EV Central plugged in to find out. The Model Y will travel further, though, claiming 533km between charges, compared to the Toyota’s 411km. SCORE: 3.7/5

EV Central

Very closely related to the Ioniq 5 crossover SUV and Kia EV6 , it rides on the same E-GMP architecture, has the same 400V/800V ultra-fast charging capability, same (in Long Range guise) 77.4kWh battery and same 239kW/605Nm from its twin motors. An Ioniq 5 with the same battery and motor travels only 507km due to its blockier 0.29

Nissan X-Trail e-Power review: Is it better than a Toyota RAV4 Hybrid?

EV Central

We will get to how it all works in a moment, but the short version is that, while you still get a petrol engine with your electric motors, the former is only used to recharge the battery or deliver power to the motors — it never actually drives the wheels — giving you what Nissan calls an “EV-like” drive experience, and improved fuel efficiency.

If it is cold outside or the battery charge is low, then the engine kicks-in, as it does under heavy acceleration (unless you’re in EV Now mode as explained below). EV Charge mode charges the battery while driving.
