Indonesia is officially the latest market to receive the Toyota bZ4X Touring, as the fully electric wagon recently debuted at the country’s flagship motor show. It was showcased at the 2026 Gaikindo Indonesia International Auto Show with more rugged styling than its crossover counterpart.
This release also marks the bZ4X Touring’s entry into Southeast Asia. But while it technically launched in Singapore previously, it was rebadged there as the Subaru e-Outback.
Aside from the different body type, the Touring version also gets different wheels, a roof rack, and distinct lighting fixtures. Notably, it also comes with a slightly bigger 74.7kWh battery to power its dual-motor all-wheel drive setup.

However, this model notably advertises a much shorter driving range, despite having a larger pack. For reference, Toyota Motor Philippines lists the bZ4X with a 570km range, while in Indonesia, the Touring version can only drive up to 487km.
Toyota Indonesia did not mention if its range was measured in NEDC or WLTP, but in any case, 487km is still plenty. That drop in kilometers could be attributed to the Touring’s larger frame and additional off-road drive modes.
With the bZ4X Touring now in our region, we hope it’ll eventually reach the Philippine market. While wagons seem to have gone out of fashion, a zippy, off-road-focused EV could be its way back into the mainstream. Before we get ahead of ourselves, let us know if you’d like to see the bZ4X Touring in local showrooms.
