vs 2023 Hyundai IONIQ 5 in Ruston, LA

Are you obsessed with what’s next? Ready to embrace the future and all the innovation it has in store? Toyota is, too, and there’s no better representation of this than the all-new 2023 Toyota bZ4X. When you drive home this strikingly designed SUV, you can embrace the all-electric movement while still driving a comfortable, versatile Toyota you love. While the all-new Toyota bZ4X is undeniably modern inside and out, you’ll find the reliable practicality you need from your daily driver throughout this vehicle. For instance, you’ll have seating for five, 56.9 cubic feet of cargo space for everything you need to carry,1 a standard wireless phone charging pad and a standard 12.3-inch Toyota Audio Multimedia touchscreen. Not sure where to charge your new electric vehicle? Don’t worry — the all-new Toyota bZ4X comes with a portable 120V (Level 1) AC charging cord that you can plug into a standard household outlet, and this model is compatible with a 240V (Level 2) AC charger and DC Fast Charging as well.

With an aerodynamic exterior, incredible efficiency and a well-equipped, luxurious interior, the all-new 2023 Toyota bZ4X is cutting-edge — yet it’s approachable, too. This vehicle stands apart from its rivals in the new generation of electrified vehicles, most of which are defined by their cold, space-age designs. One of these rivals is the new 2023 Hyundai IONIQ 5. Let’s take a look at how these two models compare.

While these models are both most notable for their all-electric power, they differ in a number of crucial ways — and these differences show that the all-new 2023 Toyota bZ4X is the new electric vehicle that should be in your driveway. These models have close starting MSRPs and best available EPA-estimated MPGe ratings. However, when you look at what you get for your money, the all-new Toyota bZ4X clearly offers more. You can get available all-wheel drive on the base trim of the all-new Toyota bZ4X but not on the base trim of the Hyundai IONIQ 5. While both models can be equipped with available height-adjustable, hands-free power liftgates, the all-new Toyota bZ4X comes with a breathtaking standard panoramic fixed-glass roof with a power sunshade (something the Hyundai IONIQ 5 lacks) and standard rain-sensing windshield wipers (which are only available on the highest, and most expensive, Hyundai IONIQ 5 trim). And finally, you’ll get ToyotaCare, a no-cost maintenance plan that’s active for 24 months or 25,000 miles after purchase (whichever comes first). Hyundai doesn’t offer a no-cost maintenance plan like this, so you’ll be stuck with the bill if you choose the Hyundai IONIQ 5.
