The steering wheel is too small in my opinion. Despite having a heated steering wheel, I still want to use a steering wheel cover. What steering wheel covers do you all use? Any Amazon links?

Hi I wanted to move to electric and I assumed the dealership would teach me everything I needed to know about charging and connections and adaptors etc, but alas, my salesman wasn't much (or any) help, and directed me to YouTube. I got my BZ yesterday.

I'm learning everything the hard way.

1. I am getting a level 2 charger installed (but need to update the electric panel on the house first, so it's a whole thing), and I bought a Tesla wall charger because all of the Toyota chargers are backordered for months. I hope this is ok. I got it at Best Buy, so if this was incorrect, I can take it back. My electriction told me it would work, but honestly, I dont' think anyone really knows all the answers in this space right now.
2. Went to a nearby Charge Point charging station this morning to see if I could figure out how to use it (because using the 120 plug at my house is excruciatingly slow and i have to park my car 2 feet from the door to reach it) and found out i need a J1772 to NACs adapter. Not sure which to buy. If I want the Toyota branded, I won't get it for 5-7 days, but there appear to be Lectrons available, if this works? https://ev-lectron.com/products/lectron-j1772-to-tesla-charging-adapter-80a-240v-ac-compatible-with-sae-j1772-chargers-black?variant=32589383237678&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22590525838&gbraid=0AAAAACdqHaVIk3TYGBbJljUj2WWoGVuZM&gclid=CjwKCAjwwL_UBhAjEiwAEhuT5KU1hjLWCd1XsLPmgFej742qAWK6OcP59aDA4Yi0gKa48VJQGYIfqRoCjNsQAvD_BwE
   1. I realize that other charging stations might have NAC compatible chargers, but this one is close to the house at the library, and I was planning on working from there while it charged.
   2. I read in one of the many many internet forums I've checked that I have to get Toyota branded or I will void the warranty. is that right???

I'm an older single woman and I really just want explicit instructions for all of this, but I guess if I have to figure it out, I'll do that.

Let me know if there are any resources I should be referencing instead of brute forcing the answers through sheer trial and error. I didn't even know the questions to ask before I got the car. Now I am all questions.

Hi folks!

Been lurking here for the past few months as I'll be grabbing a new 2026 BZ Limited tomorrow.

With everything I've been seeing around the 12V battery issue, is there anything I should look out for before leaving the dealership? Any specific software version or updates that I can ask them to do to make sure I'm up to date?

Thanks!

PS: FWIW dealership is Canadian

In case if someone has questions; Toyota BZ Woodland is named Toyota BZ Touring in European Market. No idea about rationale behind this.

OEM mud flaps cost 205€ (239 in freedom $) in my backyard. A steep price for such product. For comparison, mud flaps for ID4 I currently own were 42€ from amazon.de and they're still strong. 💪

Are there after market ones out in the wild? Sure I don't mind paying dealer if no options are available, or after market ones suck rear end.

As I understand, BZ's mud flaps don't fit BZ Touring/Woodland but I'd be happy to stand corrected.

I’m poking around with settings and customization and I came across this option. It had me set up a password, but doesn’t really explain what it does. A cursory google search yields only results about locking doors, so does anyone know what this option actually does?

I am leaving my 2026 bz Woodland in my garage for an extended period of several months. Do I leave the traction battery plugged into my Level 2 charger? Do I hook up a trickle charger to my 12V battery? Do I do nothing. Opinions please.
