2027 Toyota bZ: Range, Trims, and Family Value Guide
The 2027 Toyota bZ is an all-electric SUV built for families and daily commuters, offering an EPA-estimated range rating of up to 314 miles, a choice of front- or all-wheel drive, and five configurations starting at a Total Suggested Retail Price (TSRP) of $36,635. Every 2027 bZ comes standard with a North American Charging System (NACS) port, Toyota Safety Sense 3.0, a 14-inch touchscreen, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
Total Suggested Retail Price (TSRP) for new vehicles includes manufacturer and distributor options and delivery, processing, and handling fees, which are subject to change at any time. TSRP excludes taxes, title, license, dealer-installed options, accessories, fees and charges. TSRP is not the dealer advertised price. Dealer price will vary. The dealer sets the final price.
EPA-estimated fuel economy figures are for comparison purposes only. Your actual mileage will vary depending on driving conditions, how you drive and maintain your vehicle, battery age/condition, and other factors.
Toyota describes the 2027 bZ as unchanged from the 2026 model year. For shoppers, that is useful news: the larger battery option, the longer range ratings, and the standard NACS port that arrived with the 2026 refresh all carry forward intact.
Specifications, features, and availability for a newly introduced model year are preliminary and subject to change. All figures are sourced from Toyota’s official 2027 bZ materials as of publication.
How Far the 2027 Toyota bZ Goes on a Charge
The 2027 bZ is offered with two battery sizes, and that choice drives everything else about the lineup. The XLE FWD uses a 57.7-kWh battery. The other four configurations use a larger 74.7-kWh battery. Toyota’s published EPA-estimated range ratings break down as follows:
- XLE FWD Plus — EPA-estimated 314 miles, the longest in the lineup
- Limited FWD — EPA-estimated 299 miles
- XLE AWD — EPA-estimated 288 miles
- Limited AWD — EPA-estimated 278 miles
- XLE FWD — EPA-estimated 236 miles
The pattern is consistent. Front-wheel-drive models travel farther than their all-wheel-drive counterparts, and the XLE grade’s 18-inch wheels are easier on range than the Limited grade’s 20-inch wheels. A shopper who wants maximum range without paying for the top grade should look hardest at the XLE FWD Plus.
For a household in San Juan Capistrano, Mission Viejo, or Ladera Ranch, even the shortest-range XLE FWD, at an EPA-estimated 236 miles, covers a typical week of commuting and errands between charges. For more on how the battery and charging system work, see our 2026 bZ range and charging guide — the hardware carries over unchanged into 2027.

Charging the 2027 Toyota bZ
Charging at a Glance
| Specification | Detail |
|---|---|
| Charge port | North American Charging System (NACS), standard |
| DC fast charge, 10% to 80% | Approximately 30 minutes, ideal conditions |
| Level 2 charge, 10% to 100% | Around 7 hours via 11-kW onboard AC charger |
| Level 1 charge, 10% to 100% | Approximately 60 hours at 12 amps |
| Included adapters | CCS1 and J1772 |
| Included cable | Portable dual-voltage 120–240V |
Public Charging and Supercharger Access
Every 2027 bZ is built with a NACS port, which means direct access to the Tesla Supercharger Network along with most other high-speed public chargers in the United States. Toyota includes separate CCS1 and J1772 adapters, so older networks remain available without buying anything extra. Battery preconditioning prepares the pack ahead of a fast-charging session to help maintain performance across a range of temperatures, and Plug & Charge handles payment automatically at supported networks. Automatic preconditioning and Plug & Charge each require an active connected services trial or subscription and are 4G network dependent.
Charging at Home
The 11-kW onboard AC charger takes the battery from 10% to 100% in around seven hours — an overnight charge for anyone with a garage or driveway circuit. The included dual-voltage cable covers both Level 1 and Level 2 charging without additional hardware.
2027 Toyota bZ Trim Lineup and Pricing
The 2027 bZ is offered in XLE and Limited grades, each available with front- or all-wheel drive, plus the XLE FWD Plus that pairs front-wheel drive with the larger battery.

Which 2027 bZ Trim Fits Best?
The XLE FWD is the entry point for buyers whose priority is the lowest purchase price on a vehicle that handles daily suburban driving. The XLE FWD Plus adds $3,000 and buys the larger battery and the stronger motor — a jump from an EPA-estimated 236 miles of range to an EPA-estimated 314 miles, and from 165 to 221 horsepower, which makes it the strongest value position in the lineup. Moving from front- to all-wheel drive adds $2,000 at the XLE grade and brings 338 horsepower. The Limited grades are the choice when feature content matters as much as drivetrain.

XLE vs. Limited: What Each Grade Includes
| Feature | XLE | Limited |
|---|---|---|
| Alloy wheels | 18-inch | 20-inch |
| Seating surfaces | SofTex and fabric mixed media | SofTex-trimmed |
| Panoramic fixed-glass roof with power sunshade | Available | Standard |

| Dual-zone automatic climate control | Standard | Standard |
| 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen | Standard | Standard |
| Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 | Standard | Standard |
Beyond the equipment above, the Limited grade adds ventilated front seats, heated rear seats, and front radiant foot-and-leg heaters, with an available digital rearview mirror and available nine-speaker JBL premium audio. Limited grades also add four driver-assistance features, covered in the safety section below.
Powertrain and Drivetrain
The 2027 bZ is built on Toyota’s e-TNGA platform, developed specifically for electric vehicles. There is no combustion engine and no fuel tank.
Front-wheel-drive models use a single electric motor producing either 165 horsepower (XLE FWD) or 221 horsepower (XLE FWD Plus and Limited FWD). All-wheel-drive models use two motors — one at each axle — for 338 total system horsepower and a manufacturer-estimated 0-to-60 mph time of 4.9 seconds.
All-wheel-drive models add X-MODE and Grip-Control, which modulate braking and adjust power delivery at the wheels to help maintain traction in adverse conditions. Every trim uses a single-speed transmission, and steering wheel-mounted paddle shifters let the driver adjust the level of regenerative braking. Vehicle Stability Control is standard. The suspension pairs front struts with an independent rear multi-link setup.
Shoppers who need ground clearance and towing capability the bZ is not designed for should look at the bZ Woodland, Toyota’s larger, more rugged electric SUV.
Interior Space and Comfort
Every 2027 bZ seats five. Cargo capacity is 27.7 cubic feet behind the rear seats on models without a subwoofer, expanding to 56.9 cubic feet with the rear seats folded.
| Measurement | Front | Rear |
|---|---|---|
| Headroom | 38.6 in. | 37.1 in. |
| Legroom | 42.1 in. | 35.3 in. |
| Shoulder room | 57.8 in. | 56.0 in. |
| Hip room | 54.4 in. | 44.8 in. |
Rear legroom of 35.3 inches and rear shoulder room of 56 inches make the second row usable for adults, not just for children. Heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and dual-zone automatic climate control are standard across the lineup.
Technology and Connectivity
A 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen is standard on every 2027 bZ — there is no smaller screen on a base trim. It pairs with a 7-inch customizable LCD instrument display mounted at the top of the dash.
Wireless Apple CarPlay and wireless Android Auto are both standard, with no cable required. A six-speaker audio system is standard; a nine-speaker JBL premium system with subwoofer and amplifier is available on Limited grades.
Standard interior technology includes two front Qi-compatible wireless chargers, four USB-C ports, front and rear ambient lighting with 64 color options, and a 120V/1500W AC outlet in the rear cargo area for powering equipment away from home. Every bZ is Toyota Digital Key capable, which lets a compatible smartphone function as the vehicle key, and that feature requires an active Remote Connect trial or subscription.
Connected Services Trials
| Service | Included Trial |
|---|---|
| Safety Connect | 5 years |
| Service Connect | 5 years |
| Remote Connect | 5 years |
| Wi-Fi Connect | 30 days / 3 GB |
| Drive Connect | Availability varies by grade |
A subscription is required after each trial ends, and connected services are 4G network dependent.
Safety Systems on the 2027 Toyota bZ
Standard on Every Trim
Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 is standard on every 2027 bZ. It is not a package upgrade or a paid add-on. The suite includes the Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Departure Alert with Steering Assist, Lane Tracing Assist, Full-Speed Range Dynamic Radar Cruise Control operating from 0 to 110 mph, Proactive Driving Assist, Road Sign Assist, Automatic High Beams, and the Emergency Driving Stop System, which can bring the vehicle to a stop if the driver does not respond to prompts to resume control.
Additional standard safety equipment includes eight airbags, the Toyota Star Safety System, a rear seat reminder, a backup camera with Back Guide Monitor, Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert and Safe Exit Alert, and an anti-theft alarm with engine immobilizer.
Added on Limited Grades
Limited grade models add Traffic Jam Assist, Lane Change Assist, Front Cross-Traffic Alert, and a Panoramic View Monitor with Perimeter Scan. Traffic Jam Assist requires an active Remote Connect trial or subscription and is 4G network dependent.

Driver-assistance and advanced safety systems are supplemental aids and are not substitutes for safe and attentive driving. Availability, operation, and effectiveness vary by trim and equipment and depend on factors including road, weather, traffic, and vehicle condition. Always keep your hands on the wheel and your eyes on the road. See your owner’s manual for system limitations and details.
Warranty and Maintenance Coverage
The coverage terms below are published by Toyota; see Toyota’s electrified vehicle warranty information for full details and conditions.
| Coverage | Term |
|---|---|
| Basic new-vehicle warranty | 36 months / 36,000 miles |
| Powertrain warranty | 60 months / 60,000 miles |
| Battery and EV components | 8 years / 100,000 miles |
| Corrosion perforation | 60 months / unlimited mileage |
| Roadside assistance (Toyota BEVs) | 3 years / unlimited mileage |
| ToyotaCare scheduled maintenance | 1 year / 10,000 miles |
The battery and electric-vehicle component warranty runs 8 years or 100,000 miles — the coverage that matters most on an EV purchase.
ToyotaCare changed for the 2027 model year. Complimentary factory-scheduled maintenance is now 1 year or 10,000 miles, whichever comes first, and the number of covered services varies by model. Model-year 2026 and earlier Toyota vehicles retain the previous 2-year, 25,000-mile program. Because both model years may be on the lot at the same time, confirm which coverage applies to the specific vehicle you are considering. Roadside assistance remains 3 years with unlimited mileage for Toyota battery-electric vehicles, longer than the standard 2-year term on most Toyota models.
