As the competition in the electric car market increases day by day, Japanese automotive giant Toyota has also made an ambitious move in this race. Toyota, which introduced its most affordable electric SUV model bZ3X, which it developed specifically for the Chinese market, attracted attention especially by responding to BYD’s aggressive pricing policies. The model, which attracted great attention with its introduction, received more than 10,000 orders in the first hour after the launch and due to this intense demand, Toyota’s servers experienced short-term disruptions.
Toyota officially became a rival to BYD in the Chinese market
bZ3X stands out in its segment with its affordable price. The model, which starts at $15,000 for its standard version, has a price tag of $20,500 for its version with advanced smart driving technology. The top package of the series, “610 Max”, offers a range of up to 610 kilometers for $22,000. In addition, the standard model has a smaller battery that provides a range of 430 kilometers.

The interior design of the vehicle has been developed with a focus on comfort and includes a large 14.6-inch infotainment screen and an 8.8-inch digital instrument panel. In addition, the front and rear seats can be fully reclined, providing a spacious and useful interior.
One of the biggest innovations offered by Toyota in this model is the Momenta 5.0 Intelligent Driving System. This NVIDIA-supported system has advanced driving support features such as driverless parking, high-speed assistant and blind spot monitoring. When the dimensions of the bZ3X are evaluated, it is seen that it has dimensions that will directly compete with the BYD Yuan Plus. So what do you think about this vehicle?
