Just Announced: The New Toyota bZ4X Touring
Toyota’s most powerful electric SUV is coming to Australia in 2026
Toyota has just pulled the covers off the latest addition to its growing electric lineup—the new bZ4X Touring—and it’s making a bold statement. More power. More space. More electric innovation. Due to arrive in Australian showrooms in the first half of 2026, the bZ4X Touring builds on the foundation of the original bZ4X SUV, with a sharper focus on long-distance touring, family practicality, and performance.
What We Know
Revealed moments ago, the bZ4X Touring is set to become Toyota’s most powerful SUV ever, delivering a massive 280kW of all-wheel-drive performance. Compared to the current bZ4X, it features 30% more luggage space thanks to a longer rear overhang and a more upright tailgate—perfect for families or drivers needing extra room for weekends away.
This flagship AWD variant will also feature the upgraded 74.7kWh lithium-ion battery, designed for improved driving range and faster charging—even in colder conditions. It includes a battery pre-conditioning function that helps reduce charging time to around 30 minutes when conditions are less than ideal.
Designed for the Electric Road Ahead
The bZ4X Touring is part of Toyota’s multi-pathway approach to achieving carbon neutrality, offering customers a wider range of zero-emissions options that don’t compromise on performance or practicality.
Whether you’re looking to switch to a full battery-electric vehicle for your daily drive or need an SUV that can handle longer adventures with ease, the bZ4X Touring offers a genuinely capable and family-friendly EV alternative.
Arriving in 2026 at New Town Toyota
The bZ4X Touring is due to arrive in early 2026, with the updated bZ4X range hitting Australian shores in late 2025. Full Australian specifications will be revealed closer to launch, but if you’re already thinking about making the switch to electric, we’re ready to help.
