2026 Toyota bZ in Tustin, CA
Electric SUV Overview
The 2026 Toyota bZ marks a bold step forward in Toyota’s electric vehicle lineup — and a significant departure from its predecessor. Formerly known as the bZ4X, the redesigned bZ brings a larger battery, more power, faster charging, and a native NACS port that opens Toyota’s first EV to the full Tesla Supercharger network. For drivers in Tustin, Irvine, Huntington Beach, and across Orange County, this is an electric SUV built for the way Southern California actually drives.
Driving Range That Works for Real Life
The 2026 bZ is available in multiple configurations to match different driving habits and range priorities. The base XLE FWD uses a 57.7 kWh battery with an estimated 236 miles of range — more than enough for daily commuting and local errands. Step up to the XLE Plus FWD and the larger 74.7 kWh battery delivers up to an estimated 314 miles, one of the most competitive figures in the compact electric SUV segment.
All-wheel-drive buyers aren’t left short either. The XLE AWD estimates 288 miles of range, and the Limited AWD comes in at 278 miles — with the added confidence of Toyota’s X-MODE system for wet roads and varied terrain.

Power and Performance
Power scales meaningfully across the lineup. The base XLE FWD produces 168 horsepower, smooth and efficient for everyday driving. XLE Plus and Limited FWD trims step up to 221 horsepower, while both AWD variants deliver a combined 338 horsepower — a 50% increase over the outgoing model. AWD models reach 0 to 60 mph in approximately 4.9 seconds.
The bZ is built on Toyota’s e-TNGA platform, placing the battery beneath the flat floor for a low center of gravity, balanced handling, and a composed ride. Regenerative braking with steering-wheel paddle shifters lets drivers adjust energy recovery on the fly.

Charging Made Simpler
Every 2026 Toyota bZ comes equipped with a NACS charging port as standard, giving owners native access to thousands of Tesla Supercharger stations nationwide. Using DC fast charging, the bZ can recharge from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes. The upgraded 11 kW onboard AC charger supports efficient Level 2 charging at home or at public stations — a meaningful step up from the previous 7 kW unit.
Battery preconditioning and charge scheduling via the Toyota app help maximize charging speed and manage energy costs. A battery thermal management system protects cell health across Southern California’s range of temperatures.
