On April 22, 2025, FAW Toyota staged a technology conference in Shanghai, introducing the bZ5 as the "Toyota Sensory Space Capsule." This innovative vehicle comes equipped with the all-new Toyota Pilot intelligent driving assistance system and is priced within the range of 130,000 to 160,000 yuan. Prior to its official launch, consumers have the opportunity to place an intention deposit, which will be deducted from the final purchase price. FAW Toyota aims to officially unveil this model in June. Additionally, the company has launched the "Time Renewal Plan," offering "age appreciation subsidies" to all existing Toyota users. The trade-in subsidy escalates with the vehicle's age and can be stacked with national subsidies, thereby incentivizing old users to upgrade to newer models.
