2024 Toyota bZ4X FWD review

CarExpert

The bZ4X only comes with a tyre repair kit which isn’t surprising for an EV. It’s something to keep in mind however if you plan to venture far from tyre repair shops as you could be stuck waiting a while for roadside assistance.

2024 Honda Accord e:HEV RS: Australian first drive

Drive.com

However, there’s a high load lip that’ll make it difficult to haul heavy items over and the Accord hybrid only comes with a tyre repair kit. Unfortunately, a Telstra SIM and access to the Telstra network were not available on our test car. That’s a fair amount more money than one of the country’s best-selling sedans. It gets a 12.3-inch

2024 Audi Q8 55 e-tron quattro Launch Edition review

CarExpert

Another interesting tick the Q8 e-tron gets is the inclusion of a ‘collapsible’ space saver spare wheel, where most other EVs only get tyre repair kits. While that may sound smallish for an SUV this size, it betters the BMW iX (500L-1750L) and Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV (520L-1675L) when the second row is in use.

2024 Toyota bZ4X vs Subaru Solterra electric SUV comparison: What’s the difference?

Drive.com

As with most electric cars, there’s no spare tyre under the floor, rather a puncture repair kit. Another factor is the dealership network. The Subaru feels firmer over bumps than the bZ4X, and does not disguise its two-tonne weight as well. There’s no storage under the bonnet either. Can the Toyota bZ4X and Subaru Solterra tow?
