Toyota bZ Woodland: A Rugged Electric Wagon Ready for Snow, Sun, and cargo

Toyota’s 2026 bZ Woodland is a raised electric wagon that aims to replace a do‑it‑all family car with true off‑road and cargo capability: 8.3 inches of ground clearance, 33.8 cu ft of rear cargo space, and a 74.7 kWh pack delivering up to 281 miles of range, with 375 hp and a 0–60 mph time of 4.4 seconds. Powered by a 400‑V system with up to 150 kW DC fast charging and 11 kW AC, it adds Grip Control/X‑Mode off‑road tech, standard roof rack, and optional all‑terrain tires (which reduce range by about 21 miles). Built similarly to Subaru’s Trailseeker, it competes with the Outback‑styled EV space, pricing around $46,750 versus Subaru’s roughly $41k–$46k, and while the interior isn’t the latest, it offers a practical, comfortable ride and strong EV performance—arguably Toyota’s strongest EV to date in a wagon that suits camping, snow, or everyday use.
