When Toyota announced the bZ4X back in 2022, more than a few people scratched their heads at the name. It sounds like a random designation for a stormtrooper from Star Wars. But there is a method to the madness. At its launch, Toyota explained that bZ stands for "beyond zero" emissions, since it's an EV. The 4 represents its size, like the RAV4, and X identifies it as a crossover. Makes total sense, right?
