Lexus RZ: the answer to an electric RX

If you found yourself looking for an all-electric RX, you may have been a bit bummed that Lexus hasn't released one yet. However, that doesn't mean you're out of luck. With the release of the RZ, Lexus' first fully electric SUV, you now have the option of a midsize Lexus SUV that comes standard with an electric motor. While the style isn't a perfect one-for-one comparison, the RZ offers a similarly sized vehicle with roughly the same passenger and cargo space while delivering plug-in electric performance. As an official Lexus RZ dealer, we are thrilled to be able to offer our customers an EV option that lives up to the brand name. We're here to break down the RZ, including some updates that the RZ will be receiving shortly. Follow along as we take you inside the RZ to discuss features, cargo space, and more. We'll break down the powertrain options for the RZ as well as performance upgrades based on trim levels.

Lexus RZ: Motor options

The RZ offers two different motor options and can be found in the 300e and 450e. The RZ 300e is equipped with a 72.8 kWh lithium-ion battery and is available exclusively with front-wheel drive. It boasts a total system horsepower of 201. When fitted with 18" wheels, it has an EPA-estimated range of 266 miles. The RZ 450e features the DIRECT4 all-wheel drive system. This system includes a rear eAxle paired with the engine and front motor. The DIRECT4 system optimizes driving force, traction, and vehicle stability based on road conditions and the load on each wheel. The RZ 450e is powered by a 71.4 kWh battery from Prime Planet Energy & Solutions (PPES), providing a total system horsepower of 308 and enabling acceleration from 0 to 60 mph in just 5.0 seconds. With 18" wheels, it has an EPA-estimated range of 220 miles.

How long does it take to charge a Lexus RZ?

Every RZ includes a combined charging system socket for charging at home or in public spaces. Level 1 takes around 50 hours. In optimal conditions, the RZ can go from a low battery warning to fully charged in about 9.5 hours using a Level 2 charger, and it can reach 80% charge in roughly 30-35 minutes with a DC fast charger.

Lexus RZ: inside this fully electric SUV

When it comes to the Lexus RZ, the inside can be defined simply with one word: tranquility. The driving experience is well thought out in the RZ with steering wheel controls, a well-placed instrument panel for better visibility, and an optional 10-inch head-up display. With its compact powertrain and carefully positioned wheels, the RZ manages to create a generous amount of space for all passengers. For those who want a warm and inviting cabin experience, radiant heaters located at the bottom of the front console efficiently warm the legs and feet of front passengers. Lexus also put a huge focus on "sound space" when engineering the RZ. A slimmer A-pillar for better airflow management, a continuous hood seal to reduce wind noise, sound-dampening materials, and Active Sound Control all lead to a more serene environment. On top of that, available ambient illumination provides soft, indirect lighting that enhances the RZ interiors, with the luxury trim featuring a multi-color option that allows users to select from 50 colors and 14 themes.  Finally, the Dynamic Sky panoramic glass roof features a dimming option that quickly limits light entering the space. To recap, the RZ interior is all about keeping you relaxed and focused on your drive.

Lexus RZ: Style, Size & More

If you're a fan of the RX, you'll be pleased to learn that the RZ and RX are fairly similarly styled. Lexus utilized the new spindle body design for the RZ. It replaces the traditional spindle grille seen in previous models, which actually started with the 2023 RX. This design features a unique roof spoiler that helps reduce aerodynamic drag. The roof, trunk, and underbody are all crafted to enhance airflow, allowing it to move smoothly over the vehicle. The main difference between these two midsize SUVs would be in the front. The RZ has a lower hood and a minimal front grille opening, with most of the front end being either solid black or color-matching depending on which trim you choose. In the rear, the spelled-out LEXUS logo is positioned on the horizontal rear combination lamps, with a lowered center section of the red lens that highlights the logo and gives it a sharp appearance. The RZ comes with either 18- or 20-inch rims depending on trim levels.

Dimensions: 189″ L x 75″ W x 64″ H
