Toyota’s electric SUV proves far cheaper than the Tesla Model Y

The Toyota bZ4X may only be coming to the UK in 2022, but it is already official that the most affordable trim level (out of six) will cost £41,950.

The Land Cruiser Prado starts at around the same price point, while the Tesla Model Y is considerably more expensive at £54,990+. Buyers in Great Britain may look forward to as many as three ‘entry-level’ trims, one based on a single-motor spec and the other two available with dual motors as an option.

Then there is the £51,550 Premiere Edition with a panoramic roof, JBL audio and permanent AWD.  The other options remain to be revealed.

Features include wheels sized up to 20 inches, 8-inch multimedia display, reversing camera, digital dashboard, and remotely controlled HVAC. The seats will be heated and ventilated, but the leather will be strictly synthetic.
