A Bold Step Forward in All-Electric Mobility

WINNIPEG, MB – The future of electric mobility has arrived. Toyota Canada has officially unveiled the 2026 Toyota bZ—an all-electric SUV designed to deliver the brand’s legendary reliability with zero tailpipe emissions. Part of Toyota’s “Beyond Zero” strategy, the new bZ represents the brand’s most ambitious step yet toward a carbon-neutral future. 

Built on Toyota’s e-TNGA platform, the 2026 bZ is engineered from the ground up as a dedicated EV, offering responsive performance, refined style, and intelligent tech—all in a sleek, SUV package. 

All-Electric Power Meets Toyota Reliability

The 2026 bZ is powered by an advanced high-capacity lithium-ion battery system with an estimated range of up to 500 km on a full charge—ideal for Canadian commutes, road trips, and cold-weather conditions. Built for confident control in all seasons, the available all-wheel drive (AWD) system ensures traction and stability when it matters most. 

With multiple drive modes and a low centre of gravity, the bZ delivers smooth acceleration and agile handling without sacrificing ride comfort. 

Progressive Design, Inside and Out

With clean lines, a futuristic front fascia, and sculpted aerodynamics, the bZ embodies Toyota’s new design language for electric vehicles. The cabin is equally modern—minimalist yet functional, with premium materials and a spacious layout designed to enhance comfort for both drivers and passengers. 

Key features include: 

  • Panoramic roof (available) 
  • Heated front and rear seats 
  • Digital gauge cluster and large centre touchscreen 
  • Eco-conscious materials throughout 

Smart, Connected, and Safe

As expected from Toyota, the 2026 bZ is packed with cutting-edge tech and standard safety features: 

  • Toyota Multimedia System with a 14-in. touchscreen display paired with wireless Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto™ 
  • Over-the-air (OTA) updates for software and features 
  • Toyota Safety Sense™ 3.0, including Pre-Collision System with Pedestrian Detection, Lane Tracing Assist, and Road Sign Assist 

Additionally, the bZ offers connected charging tools via the Toyota app, allowing drivers to check battery status, find public charging stations, and schedule home charging with ease.
