LEXUS RZ

THE LATEST EVOLUTION OF THE FIRST ALL-ELECTRIC LEXUS SUV

The all-electric Lexus RZ has undergone a series of innovative revisions — from an increased driving range and faster charging times to the introduction of Lexus’ first next-generation steer-by-wire system. 

  • EXTENDED DRIVING RANGE

    A new 77 kWh battery increases driving range across all models. Up to 575 km is now possible from a single charge (WLTP figures for RZ 350e).

  • FASTER CHARGING TIMES

    Charging times have been reduced through the addition of a new 22kW onboard charger and improved battery pre-conditioning and cooling.

  • DELIVERING THE LEXUS DRIVING SIGNATURE

    Structural rigidity has been increased throughout the RZ, reducing body movement and contributing to precise steering.

  • STEER-BY-WIRE

    The world’s first steer-by-wire system with One Motion Grip delivers direct, responsive control while dynamically easing low-speed manoeuvres and enhancing legroom and visibility.

  • THE TRULY UNIQUE RZ 500E

    The RZ 500e model joins the RZ lineup. The most powerful RZ to date, the One Motion can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 4.6 seconds.

  • ENHANCED CABIN QUIETNESS

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  1. All

Yes.

While the RZ 350e utilises a 150 kW electric motor driving the front wheels, the RZ 500e all-wheel drive has DIRECT4 that features a high-output 167 kW front and rear motors. Power for both models comes from a next-generation Lithium-ion battery.

RZ customers benefit from a battery warranty of 8 years or 160,000 km (whichever comes first). After that, all Lexus BEV’s offer a 12-month extra warranty-up to a maximum of 10-years (or up to 1,000,000 km) on functional defects of the main battery. Cover applies after a BEV service and will be renewed until their next service is due.

With no internal combustion engine, BEVs require more power to warm up the cabin. To counter this, the RZ offers clever features to keep occupants comfortable. Pre-heating or cooling the cabin during charging ensures a comfortable temperature at start-off. On cold days, switching the climate control to ECO can add up to 25km of range by focusing on passenger comfort instead of heating up the whole cabin.

As well as the state-of-the art electric drivetrain, the RZ offers clever electrified features like the panoramic roof that keeps passengers cool when the sun shines reducing load on the air conditioning unit. For cooler mornings, radiant heaters for driver and front passenger use less electricity than conventional heating systems.

Captivated by the thrill of the drive, it’s easy to forget the practicality of this car. With a *WLTP range of around 575 km for the RZ 350e and around 450 km for the RZ 500e, you can fast-charge from 10% to 80% in approximately 30 minutes. 

 

*WLTP range

WLTP is an official test recorded in laboratory conditions (23°C, climate control off, on a chassis dynamometer) that enables customers to compare different BEV models based on the same criteria. All BEVs will show a difference between WLT and actual range. While WLTP figures are standard, displayed range and efficiency will vary depending on individual factors, and understanding them can help customers fully appreciate their vehicle.

The Lexus RZ is a fully electric crossover with an exterior slightly larger than the Lexus NX and an interior about the size of the RX. The RZ sits on a 2,850 mm wheelbase and is 4,805 mm long, 1,895 mm wide and 1,635 mm high.

Yes. The RZ is equipped with the latest Lexus Link Connect system, operated via a 14” touchscreen which includes the “Hey Lexus” on-board assistant.

Yes. You can link your smartphone using wireless or wired connections for Apple CarPlay®.

Yes. Smartphone integration is enabled using wireless or wired connections for Android Auto®.

The RZ is available as RZ 350e FWD Executive or 500e One Motion with DIRECT4 All-Wheel Drive.

Lexus launched the RX 400h self-charging hybrid in 2005, introducing electrification in the luxury market. Three decades and 2.8 million Lexus hybrids later, today we continue to enrich our customers’ lifestyles with a complete range of electrified models.
