Toyota's Rugged bZ Woodland Expands the EV Wagon Club, But Software Lags

Toyota’s 2026 bZ Woodland adds a larger, wagon-style EV to the lineup with 375 hp dual-motor AWD, 8.4 inches of ground clearance, up to 281 miles of EPA range, and a base price of $46,750. It offers strong cargo space (74.9 cu ft) and solid off-road capability via X-Mode, but sacrifices convenience (no frunk or glovebox) and falls short on software features, lacking built-in route planning, advanced navigation, and a more feature-rich interface despite a large 14-inch touchscreen and Apple CarPlay compatibility. The Woodland sits as a distinctive, capable option in a market dominated by smaller EV crossovers, with a Subaru-sourced Trailseeker variant on the way.

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.

Subaru Outback Wilderness Takes Off-Road Ambition to New Heights

The 2026 Subaru Outback Wilderness outfits the standard wagon with higher ground clearance (9.5 inches), revised chassis and suspension, upgraded underbody protection, and beefier 225/65R16 all-terrain tires plus a Wilderness-specific X-Mode, delivering strong off-road capability while keeping comfortable highway manners. Powered by a 260-hp turbo 2.4-liter flat-four routed through an 8-speed CVT to all wheels, it weighs about 3,973 pounds and hits around 0–60 in the low-to-mid-6s, with mpg around 21/27/23. Inside, it gains a 12.3-inch digital gauge cluster, a 12.1-inch touchscreen, StarTex seats (Nappa leather optional), copper accents, and improved materials; exterior cues are more rugged with a redesigned bumper, 17-inch wheels, and practical touches like tow prep and “Utility Cladding.” Base price starts near $46,446, with two packages bringing the total to about $50,500.
