Model overview

The Lexus RZ is the first globally available battery-electric vehicle (BEV) introduced by Lexus as part of its commitment to offering 100% BEVs globally by 2035. 

It features a lightweight e-TNGA steel platform and a 71.4 kWh battery, providing a total system horsepower rating of 308. The RZ offers an estimated range of up to 220 miles and can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 5.0 seconds. 

It also includes advanced features like the DIRECT4 all-wheel drive system, Frequency Reactive Dampers, and the Active Hydraulic Booster-G braking system. The RZ combines sustainability with sleek design and powerful performance. The front eAxle is packaged with a space-efficient layout, while the rear eAxle features a low-profile layout, contributing to increased interior and cargo space.

Inside the cabin, the Lexus RZ exudes opulence and sophistication, with luxurious interior features that surpass its rivals. However, it is worth noting that the overall cabin roominess and cargo capacity are slightly less than that of the Tesla Model Y.
