Toyota has announced pricing and availability details for the all-electric bZ4X in the UK. The all-electric SUV will land in the UK next year and be offered in four grades. Kicking off the range is the bZ4X Pure that comes standard with features like 18-inch alloy wheels, an eight-inch infotainment system, a seven-inch digital combimeter, reversing camera, smart entry and start, and a climate control system with a remote operation function. It is sold exclusively in front-wheel drive and will start at £ 41,950 (US$ 55,600).

Next up in the range is the bZ4X Motion, available with front-wheel drive for £ 45,750 (US$ 60,632) and all-wheel drive for £ 48,350 (US$ 64,078). It adds a rear spoiler, rear privacy glass, power tailgate, parking sensors, heated front seats, an ambient lighting system, and a wireless phone charger. Available options include a fixed panoramic roof, 20-inch alloy wheels, and an expanded Toyota T-Mate safety and driver assistance package.

Topping out the regular model line-up is the Vision grade, offered from £ 47,650 (US$ 63,150) for the front-wheel drive variant and £ 50,250 (US$ 66,600) for the all-wheel drive model. It comes standard with unique 20-inch wheels, rear parking sensors with an auto-brake function, Remote Controlled Parking Assist, synthetic leather seat upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, a heated steering wheel, a digital key, and a power tailgate with a kick sensor.

Toyota is also celebrating the British launch of the bZ4X with a special Premiere Edition which has the same features as the Vision trim level but adds a panoramic roof and a nine-speaker JBL premium audio system. It is offered exclusively with all-wheel drive and starts at £ 51,550 (US$ 68,319). Toyota claims that the entry-level bZ4X will have a range of around 450 km on the European WLTP testing cycle. Front wheel drive models deliver 201 hp and 265 Nm of torque while all-wheel drive models have 215 hp and 336 Nm.

The most obvious rival to the Toyota bZ4X in the UK is the Tesla Model Y. It starts at £ 54,990 (US$ 72,878) for the entry-level Long Range variant and tops out at £ 64,990 (US$ 86,131) for the Performance.
