Toyota has confirmed that car model names like bZ4x are set to be consigned to the bin, with recognised badges coming back for its new range of electric cars.
The bZ4x was launched in 2022 and is just about to undergo a major refresh, although it will keep the same name – for now. The car’s weird combination of numbers and letters do actually have a meaning, with the bZ standing for ‘beyond zero’ referring to the car’s zero emissions from its battery electric powertrain, the four refers to the car’s size within the product range and the x signifies that it’s a crossover/SUV.
