So replacement bz4x?

-looks like the 2026 CH-R is not a replacement for the bz4x.
-more like a more affordable sibling of the 2026 bZ.

It's a slightly smaller version of the bZ4X, which is now just called the bZ.

Wow, it totally does have all the same sheetmetal and interior as the bZ.

It's surprising how much better this looks just by dropping all the stupid black cladding and weird swoopy "future car" details around the head/tail lights.

Did Toyota actually mention this would be cheaper than the bZ though? It just looks like a coupified bZ, which should make it more expensive.

Same same

^I think Toyota would do pretty well adding the same EV powertrain to the Crown Sport and targeting the Venza / Crown Signia segment.

They left out a picture of the people who buy these:

I was just going to say, all I see is a bland, typical mid size SUV ... what am I missing here?

The sloped trunk kills the cargo space like it does on my UX. I hate it.

Oh no.

Am I loving this car because I've become a bland, typical mid size man?

No you’re too handsome for the above statement. You need 20 more years to qualify

:lol

So the 2026 prelude really just gon' look like a toyota.

Those Toyota steering wheels are so gross

I don’t mind the look of the rest of it although the interior is still pretty bad

Behold.

The Subaru version!

The Subaru... UNCHARTED. Yes that's the model name.

Why is it a steering square?

Those phones are gonna go flying.

this is why i hate all cars nowadays. Everything is trash.

hate those rear door handles, kids definitely not going reach them

everyone hates it

Ew

The only redeeming feature I see is that it has lots of physical buttons, but it looks like a bunch of the HVAC is still touchscreen. Every time I drive through Chilliwack I'd be accidentally setting the fan to max or turning the AC off trying to hit the recirc button.

They'll be fine, we all know nobody will be doing anything dynamic enough in this thing to make them move.

Could be that the square helps with gauge cluster visibility.

But then they couldn't square off the top leaving the bottom a circle, so now it's both lol

They took inspiration from a 1989 Toyota Tercel.

(Wow, this model has A/C!)

That steering wheel is great, they don't make them like they used to.
