Just 24 hours after Toyota Motor Thailand started accepting pre-bookings for its new bZ4X electric SUV, it had to close the reservations due to the large number of customers showing interest.
According to the Japanese automaker, 1,064 pre-orders were placed online for the bZ4X within the first hour, starting at 8pm on Nov 9, with the number surging to 3,356 by 8pm the next day. Toyota said this was much higher than it had anticipated and decided to cease taking pre-orders for the time being.
