Toyota Offers Wild $179 Per Month bZ4X Lease Deal for July
Toyota Offers Wild $179 Per Month bZ4X Lease Deal for July originally appeared on Autoblog. Snag a Toyota bZ4X for less than $200 per month in July Even though Toyota's selling more 'electrified' vehicles than ever before — second quarter 2025 sales were up 29.7 percent year-over-year — the brand's sole battery electric vehicle is putting on only a middling performance. Its sales have actually dropped since last year by 2.3 percent. Now, Toyota's turning up the heat, offering a truly unheard-of 36-month lease deal for just $179 per month for a 2025 Toyota bZ4X XLE. That's among the cheapest EV leases out there and includes $12,750 in cash incentives. You'll need $3,999 due at signing, and you're allowed 10,000 miles per year. View the 2 images of this gallery on the original article The best lease deal advertised here is available in the Greater NY area, but shoppers in the Midwest and the Chicago metro area can take advantage of a similarly competitive offer. There, Toyota advertises a $199 per month lease deal with the same 36-month and 10,000 miles per year terms with less down — only $2,999. It isn't a big leap for shoppers in the Pacific Northwest, like the Seattle area, and Southwestern states like the Phoenix metro. There, you can get a 12,000-mile per year lease with $2,499 due at signing for $229 per month over 36 months. You can enter your ZIP code on Toyota's website to see the latest Toyota bZ4X lease deals and incentives you might qualify for. More about the Toyota bZ4X The Toyota bZ4X is almost an exact clone of the Subaru Solterra but touts an MSRP around $1,500 cheaper. Each trim level gets between 252 and 222 miles of range on a full charge, and the XLE model discussed here fares the best according to the EPA. The standard car comes well-equipped with amenities like a fixed panoramic roof, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, and plenty of driver assistance systems. The biggest complaints — other than range — surround lackluster performance, as the standard bZ4X makes do with 201 horsepower. It's still faster from zero to 60 mph than rivals like the Kia Niro EV, though. View the 2 images of this gallery on the original article What about a $0 down lease? If you divide the $3,999 due at signing across the length of the lease, you can get a pretty good idea of what a $0 down lease looks like on the Toyota bZ4X. It'll add $111 to your monthly lease payment, bringing the new total to a still-enticing $290 per month. A lease payment under $300 per month is tough to beat, and even beats out current Tesla Model Y offers. As always, this is a rough estimate and doesn't take into account things like local taxes, dealership fees, and other charges. Get an official estimate from a Toyota dealership. Final thoughts Finding any lease payment under $200 per month is unusual today. But for an EV lease, it's even more uncommon. So, as long as you don't need to go anywhere particularly quickly, we have no reservations about recommending you pounce on this attractive lease deal while it's here, which may not be for very long. After all, Toyota has brought sweeping changes to its EV for the 2026 model year, including performance, charging, and aesthetic improvements. But hey, a good deal is a good deal. After all, the best part about leasing is that residual values are 100% not your problem. *Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

Subaru's New EV Will Be Named After a Video Game
Subaru is cooking up a new electric crossover. And now, we know what it'll be called: Uncharted. Sadly, the name was likely chosen to exude a sense of adventure and ruggedness, rather than to pay tribute to the excellent Uncharted video game series published by Sony. Either way, the compact SUV's debut is exactly one week away, and a teaser photo suggests it could share a platform with a Toyota EV. The Japanese carmaker released a single image of the Uncharted, far from the camera and shrouded in dust. But the rear end's proportions look suspiciously similar to another new EV from Japan: The Toyota C-HR . Though the image isn't very revealing, the dual-mini spoilers sprouting from the roof and the main spoiler on top of the trunk lid seem to match up perfectly. And while the taillight bar is shaped differently, the light pattern itself looks similar. The 2026 Toyota C-HR Photo by: Toyota Subaru has yet to confirm any of this, of course. But the tie-up makes sense. Subaru and Toyota already work together to produce the bZ4X and the Solterra , two electric crossovers that share a platform and much of their design. A rumor from October 2024 said the two brands were teaming up once again to build another electric crossover. And judging by the shape of the Uncharted, it looks like that rumor is true. If the two cars share a platform, the Uncharted will likely use the C-HR's 74.4-kilowatt-hour battery pack and dual electric motors, rated in the Toyota at 338 horsepower, with an estimated range of 290 miles. We suspect Subaru will have its way with styling, as it did with the Solterra, which could have a small effect on final range numbers. The Uncharted will be the third EV in Subaru's lineup, following the Solterra and the Trailseeker . Whether it's related to the C-HR or not, it should make the compact electric crossover segment even more interesting. With a global debut scheduled for July 17 and 7:30 PM ET, we won't have to wait long to see it fully revealed. More on Subaru Subaru Made the World's Only Twin-Turbo Flat-Four.

5 Japanese Cars That Will Have Massive Price Drops in the Summer of 2025
Americans looking for a deal on a Japanese car should keep a close eye on the market this summer. Several popular models are expected to see significant price drops, mainly due to inventory surpluses, model phase-outs, and shifting consumer preferences. According to Lauren Fix, automotive expert at Car Coach Reports, the summer of 2025 will be a prime time for buyers to negotiate aggressively and shop around for the best deals. Trending Now: Explore More: Best-Selling Cars report that the Japanese car market contracted 7.5% in 2024, with Toyota and Nissan facing tariffs and a shift toward hybrids over electric vehicles (EVs). Dealers will be motivated to clear out older inventory, especially in June and July, so buyers should be ready to take advantage of these rare opportunities. Here are five Japanese cars that are likely to have massive price drops in the coming months. The Nissan Z has long been a favorite among sports car fans, but the 2024 and 2025 models are facing new challenges. According to Car and Driver, the Z's retro styling and 400-horsepower engine make it a fun ride, yet it is still based on older 370Z underpinnings. The excitement that drove early markups has faded, and Nissan's Z sports car is already seeing some of the biggest discounts in years. With up to $4,000 off the 2024 model, the CarBuzz report shows this puts the price for a base Z close to $40,000, undercutting rivals like the Toyota Supra by a wide margin. Lauren Fix noted that the Z's popularity has led to market saturation, and dealers are eager to move current stock. She explained that competition from the Toyota Supra and upcoming electric sports cars is also pushing dealers to discount Z models even further. Check Out: Toyota's first electric SUV, the bZ4X, has struggled to compete with rivals like Tesla and Ford, leading to a major price cut for 2025. Car and Driver reported that the 2025 bZ4X XLE now starts at $38,465, a $6,000 drop compared to the previous year. Kelley Blue Book added that slow sales and excess inventory have pushed Toyota to offer shocking lease deals and free charging to entice buyers. Fix said that with Americans still preferring hybrids over full EVs, dealers are expected to keep offering discounts to move the bZ4X off lots this summer. Subaru is ending production of the Legacy sedan in spring 2025, after 36 years on the market, due to Americans shifting away from sedans toward SUVs and crossovers. Prices for the 2025 Legacy start at $24,895 and have held steady, but sales have dropped by 13% year-over-year, making it one of Subaru's slowest sellers. According to Carscoops, dealers are expected to offer aggressive deals to move the last of the inventory, especially as the final models arrive this summer. Fix said that discontinued models like the Legacy often see the steepest price drops as dealers make room for more popular SUVs. The Honda Passport is facing a major redesign for 2026, and the 2025 models are already being offered with deep discounts. CarsDirect found $3,400 in hidden savings on the 2025 Passport, thanks to dealer cash incentives and the need to clear out old stock. According to the 2025 Passport starts at $43,795, but buyers have a strong negotiating position as the new model arrives and the current version looks outdated. Fix explained that Americans who do not want to pay more for the redesigned 2026 Passport can find excellent deals on the outgoing model this summer. The Nissan Altima is being phased out, and that means big savings for Americans willing to buy before it disappears. According to RealCarTips, discounts of 5% to 6% off MSRP are already common, with the 2025 Altima SV FWD averaging $26,877 against a sticker price of $28,570. CarEdge's Zach Shefska told GOBankingRates that discontinued models almost always see deep summer discounts as dealers clear the last units. Lauren Fix also pointed out that new competitors and changing tastes are making the Altima an even better deal for shoppers this summer.

New Toyota Harrier Could Revive Venza Name in America
The Venza, known in Japan as the Harrier and got the ax last year, is getting a new-generation model, thanks to the RAV4. Toyota Venza Might Make A Stunning Comeback The Toyota Venza, also known as the Harrier in Japan, officially left the US lineup with the arrival of the 2025. It's departure came as somewhat of a surprise considering the coupe SUV – essentially the more stylish version of the RAV4 with a raked roof – enjoyed solid sales during its brief second run. In fact, by the end of 2024, Toyota had sold over 32,000 Venza units in America, an increase from its sales in 2023, and more than Toyota's own bZ4X, which received an update this year. Previous Pause Next Unmute 0:00 / 0:09 Audi A5 replaces A4: So, what's changed? Watch More Despite its exit, the Venza didn't leave a void in the market as the Crown Signia took its place, giving American buyers a stylish and slightly upmarket option. However, new reports from Japan suggest that the Venza could make a swift comeback. Toyota is developing a new-generation Harrier, sparking rumors that the nameplate could soon return to US shores. Sleeker Than The Toyota RAV4 With Its Own Hybrid Setup According to the grapevine, the next Toyota Venza/Harrier will keep the coupe SUV form, but will have a 'lower than the SUV frame.' It will be longer than before – up by 3.2 inches – but with shorter overhangs, which could mean a larger space for rear passengers. Compared to the RAV4, with which it shares its TNGA-K platform, the Venza will be sleeker, with a longer and lower stance. It will also be marketed as a premium SUV for sophisticated buyers, contrasting the rugged, outdoor-ready image of the RAV4. Another distinction from the RAV4 would be its powerplant. While the US-spec RAV4 now has an all-hybrid lineup, with an improved plug-in hybrid version, the new Venza will reportedly use a turbo-hybrid setup to differentiate from the more popular nameplate. The combustion engine part of the hybrid equation will reportedly be a newly developed 1.5-liter turbocharged four-pot engine known as the 'X15.'

However, Toyota's ongoing certification fraud scandal has apparently delayed this to 2027 along with other vehicle development schedules across the brand. It's unclear if Toyota will revive the Venza nameplate once it debuts in 2027, but we won't be surprised if it does. The question now is: will Toyota replace the Crown Signia, or will they be sold side by side? Looking at the numbers, the Venza's replacement is currently enjoying decent numbers, selling nearly 8,000 units during the first three months of 2025. Having outsell the bZ again and even the 4Runner, the Crown Signia name is proving popular with Toyota customers, so don't expect Toyota to let it leave the lineup.
