Comparison Review

Comfort
Rear passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Ford Explorer than in the Toyota bZ4X. The Ford Explorer will be popular with taller drivers and passengers in the front seat, due to its greater front head- and legroom than the Toyota bZ4X.

Cost
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Ford Explorer is somewhat more expensive than the Toyota bZ4X.

Dimensions
Since the Ford Explorer is much wider than the Toyota bZ4X, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Ford Explorer, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Toyota bZ4X.

Performance
When it comes to horsepower, the Ford Explorer greatly out-muscles the Toyota bZ4X.

Powertrain
Due to its much higher torque, the Ford Explorer does a much better job of transmitting its engine's horsepower to its wheels than the Toyota bZ4X.

Utility
The Ford Explorer offers greater seating capacity than the Toyota bZ4X, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around.
