The New Cars to Avoid in 2025: The Worst Sedans, Trucks, and SUVs

8.Toyota bZ4X: $44,420 - $48,530

As Toyota’s first-ever electric vehicle, the bZ4X was expected to make waves. It offers a comfortable ride, a spacious interior, and quick acceleration. However, it has failed to meet customer expectations. The biggest drawback? Its limited range. The AWD (dual-motor) version only manages 366 km (227 miles) per charge, while the FWD (single-motor) version reaches 405 km (252 miles)—falling short compared to rivals in the highly competitive EV SUV market.

Other downsides include weak regenerative braking, awkwardly placed instrument controls, a confusing gear selector, and slower charging times than most competitors. Unfortunately, in a segment packed with better options, the bZ4X struggles to stand out.
