I took the car for a test drive. I was impressed by the handling, the trunk, the interior space — huge compared with other cars — and the equipment. I’ve been driving Toyotas for 43 years and am impressed by their reliability. Ultimately, the warranty Toyota offers on the bZ4X completely convinced me.
