Toyota would rather share development costs for a brand new electric car, the same way they went to BMW for the Supra. Because development for a totally new car is expensive and is a main reason why car prices get to where they are. With co-developed cars, Toyota can learn if development, manufacturing, suppliers, etc etc can all be done within acceptable costs. Then eventually to them building their own version in the future. So don't be surprised if another full electric car will be co-developed with another manufacturer. Same goes for Honda with GM on their Prologue. Full electric hasn't been a priority to both, and they're trying to catch up. Both have done this same method before, Honda with Isuzu to get into the larger SUV market, which led into the Honda Passport, and GM with Toyota which led into Toyota full size truck market.

From my understanding, and I could be wrong, but I think it's a federal mandate by the US government that all automotive companies must make an electric vehicle or face steep taxes. This is Toyotas way of quickly releasing an electric vehicle to get around said taxes. Now once again I could be wrong but that is what I've been told

I was 100% wrong thinking this was a Prius 😅

This car is awesome for people who need a commuter car for short distances. If you are looking to lease something for cheap, I ended up snagging this car for 300 a month with 0 down, taxes and fees included. I do not plan on keeping the car and just needed something cheap as a second car.

The dashboard reminds me of one of the quirky mini laptops from 2007. That would quickly get old to look at

Modern cars now resemble miniature spaceships 🚀

Why would anyone buy a Subaru. The only thing they could make was the rally car.

Exactly the same car as the Toyota bz4x. AWD is $52K, average 240 miles Summer, 150 miles winter. Very fun to drive, "punchy", lots of torque, but really only an "around town" transport. I live in a 110 square mile city, which this car is perfect for. I drive shuttle for a local dealership and this works great. Lots of backseat room, but tight up front, especially for big people. I crank the driver's seat all the was up to see the speeddometer display. No glove compartment so storage in the front is weak. Really needs a rear screen wiper, too. Not a travel car. Too pricey for around town. Low resale value.

“Too expensive, doesn’t go far enough on a charge” yep that about sums up the EV industry right there.

I worked for Toyota for 6 years and I know this is a Subaru, but Toyota has essentially the same vehicle the BZ4X and I was excited when they finally announced an all electric car. I owned two of the plug-in Hybrid Rav4 Primes and they were amazing vehicles. Averaged 100 mpg for 30k miles I owned them. Crazy power, immediately responsive, felt very quality as a Toyota should. Then when I had an opportunity to check out the BZ4X, saw the price tag, got the details on the range, I honestly don’t know if there is a worse vehicle in their lineup dollar for dollar. That vehicle at the price doesn’t even make sense when it had the $7,500 tax credit. Why anyone would buy that car at the price with no more government subsidy is beyond me. That car is trash. Or just get a plug in hybrid. If your normal commute is 25 miles or less you will probably not ever use gas anyways. If you take a lot of trips and drive long distances where you want all electric, this vehicle with this short range isn’t for you anyways. If you’re dead set on the all electric just get a Tesla with the extended range, you’ll be thankful you did.

Truth be told, most new cars are bought by grandpas... The companies are just appealing to their main customers. If younger people were more willing to buy new cheaper cars over used luxury ones we might have more interesting stuff on the market.

Give me a nice-ish electric car for $20k with 80 miles of range and room for one passenger and groceries. That’s it. That’s what EVs should be. Maybe even 60 miles. Commute. Get groceries. Beer runs. Done.

I actually really like the speedometer. I have the new Prius and I think the speedometer is in a way better place than traditionally. I have at least a full inch of visible space between the top of the wheel to it and it's so much less painful to look at, both because it's farther and because it's not as far off the road.
