Toyota is preparing a new electric crossover named bZ3X for the Chinese market, developed in collaboration with GAC. At the Beijing Auto Show in April, Toyota showcased two electric concepts – bZ3C and bZ3X.

This was reported by RBK-Ukraine citing Autohome.

According to the published photos, the new model is nearly identical to the spring show car. A full premiere is expected this month in Guangzhou. Externally, the bZ3X closely resembles the concept. The only noticeable difference is the design of the 19-inch wheels. Certification documents have revealed the crossover's dimensions: it measures 4.6 meters in length with a wheelbase of 2.77 meters.

The interior is not shown in the images, but it is possible that it will also be similar to the show car. Additionally, the concept is equipped with a panoramic roof and a Level 2 autopilot. It operates on an Nvidia processor and receives data from 29 sensors, including a LiDAR.
