Last year, Toyota also announced that it will drive in 15 battery electric vehicles by 2025 among which seven will be part of its bZ series. And now, the automaker is all ready to bring in its next bZ model, an electric sedan which is guessed to be called Toyota bZ3.
Reports say that the Toyota bZ3 electric sedan still in concept form is expected to be introduced in the Chinese market soon where it will compete against one of the most popular electric sedans, the Tesla Model 3. Toyota intends to launch this electric sedan in Europe somewhere in 2024.
