Toyota will display its bZ Time Attack Concept at the 2025 SEMA Show in Las Vegas from November 4-7. The fully electric concept vehicle is designed for time attack competitions and hill climbs, producing 400 horsepower compared to the 338 horsepower of the production 2026 Toyota bZ AWD on which it’s based.
The concept vehicle incorporates 3D printing technology in its manufacturing process. Toyota’s Additive Manufacturing Lab in Georgetown, Kentucky guided the production of fenders and body panels using large-scale 3D printing combined with manual finishing. This hybrid fabrication method also included 3D scanning and CAD design to reduce development time and enable design iterations.
The modifications include a six-inch lower ride height and six-inch wider track compared to the standard vehicle. The aerodynamic package features a rear wing, front splitter, side skirts, and rear diffuser. The chassis uses TEIN coilovers, Alcon brakes with Hawk pads, and includes a full FIA-spec chromoly roll cage with OMP racing seats and harnesses.
“This year at SEMA, we wanted to explore uncharted territory,” said Marty Schwerter, Director of Operations at Toyota’s Motorsports Technical Center. “The bZ Time Attack Concept is an opportunity to learn, experiment, and demonstrate just how much potential lies within our electric platforms.” The vehicle will be displayed at booth 22200 in the Central Hall of the Las Vegas Convention Center as part of Toyota’s ‘Powered by Possibility’ showcase featuring over two dozen builds.
