What reviewers say

Reviewers agree the original bZ4X is comfortable, quiet and good to drive, with a supple ride and plenty of rear space. Both found some interior plastics cheap; What Car? found its range and efficiency behind rivals' and judged other electric SUVs better buys, and Auto Express noted it was not cheap and lacks a rear wiper.
