Toyota bZ3C, bZ3X BEV Models Unveiled at Beijing Auto Show 2024

Toyota has unveiled two new electric vehicles at Auto China—the bZ3C and the bZ3X, which are an extension of the bZ Sport Crossover and bZ FlexSpace Concepts from last year. The production cars resemble their concept counterparts, although powertrain specifics are not yet available. The two Toyota BEVs are equipped with advanced driver assistance systems and intelligent cockpits. Though no exact date has been announced, the cars are expected to be available on the streets of China by the next year. To learn more about their design and features, let's take a closer look.

Toyota bZ3C

The bZ3C is a product of collaboration between BYD-Toyota, FAW-Toyota, and the company's Intelligent ElectroMobility R&D Center. Featuring a more sophisticated design, the crossover looks similar to the worldwide offered Prius and bZ4X crossovers. It is equipped with crisp LED daytime running lights, a single swooping LED taillight, aero wheels, and flush-fitting door handles.

Compared to its sibling, the bZ3C, the Toyota bZ3X looks significantly larger.
