Every model comes standard with a large 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, two wireless smartphone charging pads, and four USB-C ports. Customizable ambient lighting with 64 available color options adds a personalized touch to the cabin, while available features such as a JBL premium audio system and heated and ventilated front seats provide additional comfort.

Trim Review

The 2026 Toyota bZ keeps its lineup simple with two well-equipped trims: XLE and Limited. Both deliver a modern all-electric SUV experience with impressive technology, comfort, and available all-wheel-drive capability. The XLE focuses on everyday value, while the Limited adds more premium features and upscale touches for drivers looking for an elevated experience. Before you head over to Merced Toyota, let’s take a closer look at what each trim has to offer. The XLE serves as the starting point for the 2026 Toyota bZ lineup, but it comes equipped with plenty of desirable features. Standard highlights include 18-inch alloy wheels, LED lighting, dual-zone automatic climate control, heated front seats, and a 14-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. Multiple USB-C ports, wireless smartphone charging, and Toyota’s advanced safety and driver-assistance features are also included. Available all-wheel drive provides added traction and performance, giving drivers extra confidence when road conditions become less than ideal. Overall, the XLE delivers the essential features most EV drivers want without loading you up with extras you may never use. For those who want something a little more luxurious, the Limited takes the 2026 Toyota bZ to the next level. This top-tier trim adds larger 20-inch wheels, heated and ventilated front seats, a panoramic glass roof, driver-seat memory settings, and an upgraded JBL premium audio system.
