The 2026 Toyota bZ starts at $34,980, goes 314 miles on a charge, sips electricity at 132 MPGe. Here's what the EPA numbers actually mean.
Starts at $34,980 before destination, across 8 EPA-rated trims. We verify every price by hand against manufacturer and dealer sources — if we can't confirm a number, we leave it blank instead of guessing.
EPA-tested at 314 miles of range and 132 MPGe combined. That's the lab number every car takes, so it's the fairest comparison there is. In the real world, knock off 10–20% for highway speed and cold weather. Cheaper trims with smaller wheels actually go farther — the lineup stretches from 236 to 314 miles.
At the U.S. average of $0.17 per kWh, 12,000 miles a year costs about $520 in electricity — roughly $43 a month. That's the whole fuel story; there are no oil changes either. Plug in your own rates in the fuel cost calculator.
On a DC fast charger it peaks at 150 kW — enough to add serious miles in the time it takes to grab coffee. Figures are manufacturer ratings for the best trim; real-world peaks vary with battery temperature and state of charge.
