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. An athletic, all-new F SPORT model also joins the line-up.
The new Lexus RZ will arrive in Europe late 2025.
EXTENDED DRIVING RANGE
A new 77 kWh battery increases driving range across all models. Up to 568 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 steering yoke delivers direct, responsive control while dynamically easing low-speed manoeuvres and enhancing legroom and visibility.
THE TRULY UNIQUE RZ 550E F SPORT
The RZ 550e F SPORT model joins the RZ lineup. The most powerful RZ to date, the F SPORT can accelerate from 0-100 km/h in just 4.4 seconds.
ENHANCED CABIN QUIETNESS
The installation of new soundproofing and sound absorption improves the already exceptional near-silent RZ cabin-quietness.

NEW LEXUS RZ
WELCOME TO THE NEXT GENERATION
As the first Lexus all-electric vehicle to be built from the ground up, our engineers and designers were empowered to push the form and function of the RZ to thrilling new levels. From the ultra-slim quadruple headlights that usher in the spindle body to the streamlined silhouette that emphasises the athletic stance, the RZ marks a whole chapter in Lexus electrified design.
DESIGNED WITH YOU IN MIND
STRONG STANCE
ATHLETIC POISE
The RZ's purposeful design combines a striking spindle body and sculpted silhouette. Visibility is improved and airflow optimised by the low bonnet, made possible by the engine-free powertrain.
Inspired by the Lexus seamless E-motion design concept, the grille-free nose immediately positions the RZ as an eye-catching all-electric vehicle. The simplified form also improves aerodynamic performance.
Leading in the spindle body, the ultra-slim quadruple headlights instantly identify the RZ as a Lexus owing to the pronounced L-motif of the daytime running lights.
The panoramic glass sunroof, the widest of any Lexus, transforms from transparent to dark blue with one touch. The coated glass reflects sunlight to reduce heat on sunny days and keeps the cabin warm in cooler weather.
The futuristic character of the RZ is augmented by its sophisticated rear look. The split roof spoiler contributes to the vehicle's stable performance, while the signature light bar emphasises the wide and stable stance.
The philosophy of Takumi ensures the highest standard of quality in every detail. Each Lexus Takumi master has at least 25 years of experience in their field. Among the 7,700 workers at the Miyata Lexus Plant in Kyushi, there are just 19 Takumi.
Tazuna is the Japanese term for the reins used to control a horse. The Tazuna cockpit is arranged so that only the slightest hand and eye movements are required to control the vehicle.
The Head-Up Display, driver display and 14" touchscreen have been set low to optimise the driver's line of sight. Each delivers the required information clearly and concisely for instant access and acknowledgement.
Stylish, supportive and available in three colourways, the seats can be upholstered with Ultrasuede® and animal-free leather. In addition, 8-way electrically adjustable front seats are fitted as standard on all models.
THE ULTIMATE IN CONNECTIVITY, CONVENIENCE AND CONTROL
Position yourself in the signature Tazuna cockpit of the RZ and you're immediately in control of an interconnected ecosystem of technology. From the 64-colour ambient lighting and interactive 14" touchscreen, through to the intelligent voice control and class-leading safety features, the new RZ is one of the most technologically advanced vehicles on the road.
TECHNOLOGY THAT’S SMART
STEER-BY-WIRE
A REVOLUTIONARY EVOLUTION
The Lexus steer-by-wire system makes its debut in the RZ, delivering precise, adaptable control via a state-of-the-art, aircraft-inspired steering yoke.
With only electronic signals connecting the steering yoke and the front wheels, steer-by-wire filters out all mechanical vibrations. Safety also remains paramount, with a back-up system ensuring seamless, uninterrupted control.
Steer-by-wire allows for the lock-to-lock angle to be set at just 200°. This makes controlled, precise steering easier while virtually eliminating the need for hand-over-hand turns.
The compact steering yoke frees up legroom and improves visibility. In addition, the automatically-adjusting steering ratio makes parking and intersection manoeuvres effortless and driving at speed stable and assured.
Omotenashi is the heightened level of service and hospitality you can expect from Lexus when you visit a dealership or service centre. It’s also an ethos that’s embedded in the human-touch technology and luxurious comforts of your vehicle.
Keep a check on vehicle information, navigation, safety features and audio settings without taking your eyes off the road. The 10" Head-Up Display projects all the information you need directly onto the windscreen.
Without having to remove your smartphone from your pocket or bag, you can unlock, lock and start your vehicle. Full operational access can also be remotely granted for up to five people.
Open the tailgate from the key fob, the driver’s seat or by simply moving your foot beneath the rear bumper. The electric-lift tailgate can also be set to open to a specified height.
At the press of a button, Advanced Park with Remote Park scans the parking space and manoeuvres you in automatically. The service can also be operated from outside of the vehicle via your smartphone.
Comfort in the RZ is more than exquisite upholstery and a roominess that rivals larger flagship SUVs. It’s also in the smaller details, such as the 64-colour ambient lighting and the nanoe™ X1 system, which keeps the cabin fragrant and your skin and hair hydrated.
Integrated into the S-Flow climate control system, the Lexus-first radiant heaters are positioned in front of the driver and front passenger. These optional additional heaters save energy by directing heat only where it's required.
To achieve class-leading cabin quietness, acoustic-quality glass is used for the windscreen. Flush door mouldings and a twin-latch system for the bonnet further contribute to reducing intrusive noise, while the wheel arch liners minimise splash sounds.
The optional 13-speaker Mark Levinson® Premium Surround system is tailored to the acoustic properties of the cabin. It delivers a digital home-theatre experience with Clari-Fi™ that rebuilds sound lost in MP3 digital compression.
Manage numerous features of your RZ directly from your smartphone with the Lexus Link+ app. From overseeing charging sessions, heating or cooling the car before departure, and even granting full operational access to up to five other drivers, you'll be amazed at what this smart app can do.
Monitor the charge level and range of your RZ remotely from the Lexus Link+ app. You can also start, stop and schedule charges remotely, and plan your upcoming charging on the go via the Lexus Charging Network.
Locate a charger on the go from over 950,000 charging stations across Europe via the Lexus Link+ app. By subscribing to the Lexus Charging Network, you'll also benefit from easy payments, flexible tariffs and potential discounts.
Wherever you are, you can check the live status of your RZ via the Lexus Link+ app, including doors, windows and the boot. You can also use the Find my Car function to locate your vehicle and share its location with friends and family.
Remotely precondition your RZ to your preferred temperature via the Lexus Link+ app. You can also schedule the heating or cooling to begin at a set time every day.
Without having to remove your smartphone from your pocket or bag, you can unlock, lock and start your vehicle. Full operational access can also be remotely granted for up to five people.
Linked to the car’s Blind Spot Monitor, the exclusive Safe Exit Assist function prevents occupants (front and rear) from opening their door in the event of traffic, such as cars or cyclists approaching from the rear.
The Lexus Pre-Collision System allows potential collisions to be avoided, such as at right and left turns, and with cut-in traffic. It can also recognise risks with oncoming traffic or crossing pedestrians when making a turn at a junction.
The DRCC system uses a radar sensor and camera to detect the vehicle in front and maintain an appropriate distance. If the vehicle in front comes to a halt, the RZ will also stop. When the vehicle ahead moves off, so will your RZ.
The RZ features as standard the Extended Safety Package. This includes Lane Change Assistance, which provides automatic lane change steering on the motorway, and Front Cross-Traffic Alert, which warns the driver of traffic approaching from either side at junctions.
Feel more exhilaration, excitement and power through a unified balance of state-of-the-art technology, precision engineering and pioneering innovation. Every element of the RZ has been engineered from the ground up for performance, efficiency and unparalleled luxury driving. In addition, the Lexus signature ride quality, quietness and advanced protection are assured through the advanced rigidity of the RZ platform.
