The RZ 450e was developed as a BEV from the outset, marking another first for Lexus.
This marks the move of Lexus towards their vision for more sustainable driving, but not only does the RZ 450e produce zero carbon emissions, but the vehicle is also designed to reinvent the BEV all-electric driving experience.
Chief Engineer Takashi Watanabe said: “The RZ has been developed to create a uniquely Lexus BEV that feels secure to ride in, is pleasing to the touch and is exhilarating to drive.”
The RZ does not compromise on any of the signature look and feel that Lexus is known for, with high levels of craftsmanship and refinement behind the design and comfort of the vehicle. The interior is open and luxurious.
The exterior boasts a high-tech, sleek design, thanks to the freedom that came with designing the all-electric RZ.
The RZ measures 4,805 mm long, with a 2,850 mm wheelbase and short overhangs – 995 mm front, 960 mm rear. The overall height is 1,635 mm and the width is 1,895 mm (excluding door mirrors). In terms of external dimensions and footprint, the model sits between Lexus’ mid-size NX and large RX crossover models.
The RZ 450e was designed with no compromise, offering the driver an exhilarating, all-electric driving experience true to the Lexus reputation.
