Toyota bZ4X Lease Deals

The Toyota bZ4X is a five-seat electric SUV, 4.69 m long, with a 452-litre boot and a WLTP range of up to 352 miles. It's Toyota's mainstream battery-electric family car, aimed at drivers who want an EV with a familiar badge behind it.

The choice is simpler than most. One body style, one electric powertrain family with a 57.7-73.1 kWh battery and 165-338 bhp, front- or all-wheel drive, and three trims: Icon, Design and Excel. Every version is automatic.

This is the facelifted current bZ4X, on sale in this form since 2025. A small number of previous-shape electric versions may still be around while stocks last, so check the spec on the individual deal.

About the Toyota bZ4X

The bZ4X is Toyota's electric family SUV: five seats, five doors, a 452-litre boot with the rear seats up, and a 3-year / 60,000-mile manufacturer warranty alongside a 10-year / 100,000-mile battery warranty that guarantees 70% of capacity.

Reviewers consistently praise the ride comfort, the calm and quiet cabin and the sheer amount of standard equipment. The current car's improved range - up to 352 miles on the bigger battery - answers the criticism levelled at the original version, which road testers felt couldn't go far enough between charges.

The common reservation is that it isn't thrilling to drive. It steers tidily and stays composed, but this is a car tuned for smoothness rather than speed. Euro NCAP awarded it five stars, with 88% for adult occupant protection.

Why lease a Toyota bZ4X?

Because the standard kit list is unusually complete, so the cheapest version isn't a stripped-out one. Every bZ4X has adaptive cruise control, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a powered tailgate, wireless phone charging, built-in navigation and Apple CarPlay.

A heat pump is fitted to every version too, which matters on an EV in a British winter - it warms the cabin using far less battery energy than a resistive heater. Blind-spot monitoring, rear cross-traffic alert, lane-keep assist, autonomous emergency braking and a rear-view camera are also standard across the range.

On a lease, the questions we get asked most about this car are about charging and mileage. Fastest DC charging is 150 kW, and the best version does 10-80% in 28 minutes; home and workplace AC charging runs to 0-100% in 3.5 hours at 22 kW on the best version. Our guide to charging an electric car covers what that means day to day.

Which bZ4X trim should I choose?
