2027 bZ Woodland Model Review in Danville, VA

2027 Toyota bZ Woodland in Danville, VA, at Danville Toyota

The 2027 Toyota bZ Woodland takes Toyota's electric SUV formula in a more adventure-ready direction. With standard dual-motor all-wheel drive, 375 horsepower, 8.4 inches of ground clearance, useful cargo capacity, and available all-terrain tires, it has the hardware for commuting, road trips, and trips beyond pavement. The 2027 Toyota bZ Woodland is offered in two configurations: bZ Woodland AWD and bZ Woodland Premium AWD.

Both configurations pair strong electric performance with a manufacturer-estimated driving range of 281 miles on standard all-season tires. Quick acceleration, flexible cargo space, and standard AWD give the bZ Woodland a useful combination of everyday practicality and added capability. Premium AWD builds on the standard model with additional comfort features, including ventilated front seats, a front radiant foot-and-leg heater, driver-seat memory, and a panoramic fixed-glass roof with a power sunshade.

The 2027 bZ Woodland seats five and provides a manufacturer-estimated 95 cubic feet of passenger volume. Front passengers receive 42.1 inches of legroom, while the second row provides 35.3 inches. Front and rear shoulder room measures 57.8 and 56 inches, respectively.

Both configurations feature SofTex-trimmed seats with eight-way power adjustment for the driver and front passenger, including lumbar support for the driver. Heated front and rear seats and a heated SofTex-trimmed tilt-and-telescopic steering wheel are standard.

Dual-zone automatic climate control includes a dust and pollen filter and rear-seat vents. The 60/40 split rear seat reclines and folds flat for added cargo flexibility. Other cabin conveniences include front and rear cup holders, bottle holders, seatback pockets, covered center-console storage, a front lower storage tray, cargo tonneau cover, all-weather floor mats, cargo liner, soft-touch dashboard, illuminated vanity mirrors, and power windows with auto up/down and jam protection.

Exterior Design and Capability

At 190.2 inches long, 73.2 inches wide, and 65.9 inches tall, the bZ Woodland has a substantial footprint without becoming oversized. Its 112.2-inch wheelbase contributes to passenger space, while 8.4 inches of ground clearance supports its more adventurous mission.

Exterior highlights include:

• LED projector headlights with Automatic High Beams
• Black roof rails
• Height-adjustable foot-activated power liftgate
• Rain-sensing windshield wipers with de-icer
• Matte-black door and wheel-arch moldings

Toyota gives the bZ Woodland a unique hammerhead hood design, a color-keyed center bumper, a thin lower grille, black window trim, black badging, a rear spoiler, and privacy glass for the rear side, quarter, and liftgate windows.

Heated power-folding outside mirrors include turn signals, blind spot warning indicators, and puddle lights. Premium AWD adds mirror memory and a reverse tilt-down function. Both configurations are available in Raven, Stepping Stone, Halo, Pavement, Steel, and Trueno Blue. Interior choices include Stone Brown SofTex and Black SofTex.

Electric Performance and Driving Range

Every bZ Woodland uses a dual-electric-motor all-wheel-drive system. Combined output reaches 375 horsepower, while the front and rear motors each produce a maximum of 198 lb-ft of torque.

Performance highlights include:

• Dual-motor all-wheel drive
• Manufacturer-estimated 4.5-second zero-to-60-mph time
• 74.7-kWh lithium-ion battery
• X-MODE with Downhill Assist Control

Both configurations have a manufacturer-estimated driving range of 281 miles with standard tires. Selecting the available all-terrain tires changes the manufacturer-estimated driving range to 260 miles. An independent MacPherson strut front suspension and multi-link rear suspension both use stabilizer bars. Electric Power Steering accompanies a 40-foot turning circle. Braking hardware consists of 12.9-inch ventilated front discs, 12.5-inch ventilated rear discs, and ABS. Standard 18-inch alloy wheels wear 235/60R18 all-season tires. Drivers seeking additional off-pavement capability can choose the available 235/65R18 all-terrain tires.

The bZ Woodland supports multiple charging methods for use at home and on the road. Its North American Charging System port supports AC Level 1, AC Level 2, and DC fast charging.

Charging specifications include:

• NACS charging port
• 11-kW onboard AC charger
• 150-kW maximum DC charging input
• Approximately seven hours from 10 percent to 100 percent with Level 2 charging
• Approximately 30 minutes from 10 percent to 80 percent with DC fast charging under ideal conditions

The Level 2 estimate is based on a 240-volt, 48-amp power source. Actual charging times can vary based on outside temperature, battery condition, charging conditions, and other factors.
