Opel Grandland Electric vs Toyota bZ4X

Side-by-Side Specs

Charging Speed

The Opel Grandland Electric has the higher published DC charging figure at 160 kW, which is roughly 7% higher than the Toyota bZ4X at 150 kW. In practice, that figure only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the published fast-charge window, the Toyota bZ4X is listed at about 29 minutes, roughly matching the Opel Grandland Electric. In this case, the headline kW number should not drive the decision by itself.

Range and Efficiency

The Toyota bZ4X has a WLTP rated range of approximately 528 km, which is roughly 5 km more than the Opel Grandland Electric at approximately 523 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Toyota bZ4X consumes 153 Wh/km, compared to 197 Wh/km for the Opel Grandland Electric. That means the Toyota bZ4X uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The Toyota bZ4X has approximately 71 kWh of useable battery , while the Opel Grandland Electric has approximately 73 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging is your priority, the Opel Grandland Electric has the higher published DC figure (up to 160 kW), but both cars are listed at approximately 29 minutes for the published fast-charge window. For long road trips, published stop time matters more than the headline kW number alone.

For AC charging (home wallboxes, workplace chargers, and public street chargers), the Toyota bZ4X supports up to 22 kW, compared to up to 11 kW for the Opel Grandland Electric. In Europe, many public chargers are 22 kW AC, so this difference can matter at those locations if the higher AC figure is fitted on the car you buy.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Toyota bZ4X is the more efficient choice at 153 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the Toyota bZ4X has a WLTP rated range of approximately 528 km, which is roughly 5 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
