Toyota has unveiled the all-electric 2026 bZ Woodland sport utility vehicle as the newest addition to its battery-electric lineup in the United States, featuring a dual-motor all-wheel-drive system with a combined output of 276 kW (375 horsepower).

The vehicle is scheduled to arrive at U.S. dealerships in March 2026 with a starting manufacturer’s suggested retail price of $45,300, excluding fees. It is powered by a 74.7 kWh lithium-ion battery and offers an EPA-estimated driving range of up to 281 miles. Toyota estimates the SUV can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in about 4.4 seconds.

Models equipped with optional all-terrain tires are expected to deliver a reduced range of about 260 miles. The bZ Woodland includes a North American Charging System (NACS) port and supports DC fast charging from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes under ideal conditions. An 11 kW onboard charger handles AC charging, and a dual-voltage home charging cable is included as standard equipment.

Toyota said the vehicle incorporates battery pre-conditioning to improve charging performance, which can be activated manually or automatically when routing to a fast-charging station. Plug-and-Charge functionality is also supported on selected charging networks.

“With its standard 375-hp net combined system output, the dual-motor, all-wheel-drive powertrain makes the bZ Woodland the most powerful bZ yet,” Toyota said. The SUV also offers 8.4 inches of ground clearance and a towing capacity of up to 3,500 pounds, positioning it as a utility-focused electric vehicle.

Built on Toyota’s e-TNGA platform, the bZ Woodland provides up to 74.3 cubic feet of cargo space with the rear seats folded. Standard features include a 14-inch touchscreen infotainment system, dual wireless charging pads and a suite of connected services. Toyota Safety Sense 3.0 driver-assistance technologies are also included as standard.
