GAC Toyota has launched the pre‑order program for the bZ7, its first all‑electric luxury sedan aimed at the Vietnamese market.
Pricing and Availability
The bZ7 will be offered in five trims, priced from ¥179,800 to ¥239,800 (approximately VND 683 million to 911 million). This “soft” price positioning puts the model just above the locally assembled Camry while delivering premium electric performance.
Exterior Design
Borrowing Toyota’s electric‑vehicle design language, the bZ7 features a bold front fascia with a full‑width LED daytime running light that creates a distinctive “shark‑head” look. Large trapezoidal air intakes and aerodynamic side vents enhance airflow, while the coupe‑shaped roofline slopes gently toward the rear, giving it a sleek silhouette.
Overall dimensions are 5,130 mm length, 1,965 mm width and 1,506 mm height, with a 3,020 mm wheelbase that provides ample cabin space. Sporty 20‑inch multi‑spoke wheels complete the look.
Interior and Comfort
Inside, the cabin is driver‑centred with a compact LCD instrument cluster and a 15.6‑inch 2K touchscreen that runs Huawei’s HarmonyOS Cockpit 5.0. The system learns user habits and offers context‑aware services.
The bZ7 also integrates Xiaomi’s smart ecosystem, allowing seamless connection to phones, wearables and home devices. Front passenger seats feature zero‑gravity cushions, 10‑point massage, heating and ventilation. Rear passengers enjoy independent climate control, a mini‑fridge, Yamaha premium audio, and a rear work desk.
Acoustic glass on all four doors reduces cabin noise, while a dual‑layer sound‑insulating roof further enhances quietness.
Powertrain and Range
Huawei’s DriveONE electric drivetrain delivers up to 207 kW (278 hp) and a top speed of 180 km/h. The vehicle uses a lithium‑iron‑phosphate (LFP) battery sourced from CALB, available in 71.35 kWh or 88.13 kWh capacities.
Depending on the trim, the CLTC‑rated range spans 600 km to 710 km on a single charge, making the bZ7 one of the longest‑range EVs in its segment.
Smart Driving Assistance
The bZ7 is equipped with Momenta R6 driver‑assist technology, featuring 27 surrounding sensors that handle complex traffic scenarios from city streets to highways.
A dual‑chamber air‑suspension can adjust ride height and stiffness independently for each wheel. An AI‑powered “smart prediction” algorithm reads road conditions in real time and adapts damping to keep the ride smooth.
