Toyota Motor Corporation has launched its first mass-produced battery-electric vehicle (BEV), the bZ4X, available in Japan and for lease only, a move meant to alleviate customer concerns over battery and residual value issues.
The SUV will be made available to individual customers through KINTO subscription services for extended periods providing “peace of mind and the development of customer-oriented services. For corporate customers, the vehicles will be leased from Toyota Rent-a-Lease Dealers nationwide and the Toyota Mobility Services Corporation (Tokyo region),” the carmaker announced.
