Toyota bZ4X 2024 Review — Toyota's First Real EV, and a Sane One for Sri Lanka

The bZ4X is Toyota's first ground-up electric SUV — a midsize, ~71 kWh BEV co-developed with Subaru, built on the e-TNGA platform. It trades headline range and party tricks for Toyota durability engineering and a battery warranty philosophy aimed at long life. Lands around LKR 24–32M, with the EV per-kWh duty advantage doing real work on the tax line. The diaspora-or-second-income family EV for buyers who want electric without the anxiety.

Nissan Note e-POWER 2023 Review — The Series-Hybrid Outsider Worth a Look

The third-gen Nissan Note (E13) e-POWER uses a 1.2L petrol engine purely as a generator — wheels are driven only by an electric motor. The result: EV-style instant torque, 23–28 km/L real-world, and a LKR 1,500/cc excise band that lands a 2023 example at LKR 9–12M. After 4,200 km we found the niche pick that genuinely deserves more attention than it gets.
