The 2027 Toyota bZ returns with only a modest price increase after strong sales momentum in the United States. Toyota has raised pricing by $80 across the lineup while keeping the electric crossover’s key features, range, charging capabilities, and technology unchanged from the previous model year.
2027 Toyota bZ Returns With Minimal Changes
Toyota simplified the vehicle’s name by replacing the “bZ4X” badge with the shorter “bZ” last year. The update included improvements to driving range, charging speed, and power.
The changes appear to have resonated with buyers. By June, Toyota had sold 17,553 bZ models in the United States, nearly doubling sales from the same point a year earlier. The figure represents an 89.8% year-over-year increase, making the bZ one of Toyota’s strongest-performing models.
For the 2027 model year, Toyota is making only one pricing adjustment, increasing every trim by $80 while leaving the rest of the vehicle largely unchanged.
Range, Charging, and Standard Features Remain the Same
The 2027 Toyota bZ continues to include standard North American Charging Standard (NACS) compatibility, allowing access to most public DC fast chargers across the country. Battery preconditioning also remains standard to help maintain charging performance in varying weather conditions.
Buyers can choose between two battery options. The XLE FWD Plus offers an EPA-estimated driving range of 314 miles, while the Limited FWD and AWD models provide up to 299 miles of range. The entry-level XLE FWD uses a smaller battery with an estimated range of 236 miles.
When connected to a DC fast charger under suitable conditions, the battery can charge from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes.
Technology and Interior Equipment
Standard equipment includes a 14-inch touchscreen, dual wireless phone chargers, heated front seats, dual-zone automatic climate control, wireless Apple CarPlay, wireless Android Auto, and Toyota Safety Sense 3.0.
The Limited trim adds ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, a panoramic glass roof, 20-inch wheels, and a digital rearview mirror.
Strong Sales Momentum for the Toyota bZ
The Toyota bZ has continued to post strong sales in the U.S. market. During the first half of the year, the model recorded 17,553 sales, outperforming the Toyota Land Cruiser, which totaled 15,122 units, and the Toyota Sequoia, which reached 13,403 units over the same period.
The article also notes that the Toyota 4Runner has become a strong seller this year, although the bZ’s performance highlights growing demand for the electric crossover.
Conclusion
With only an $80 price increase for 2027, Toyota is keeping the bZ largely unchanged after last year’s updates. The electric crossover continues to offer the same range options, charging capabilities, and technology features as it builds on its strong U.S. sales performance.
