Lexus has had a go at an electric car before — the underwhelming UX300e — but the RZ 450e SUV is the first step in the Japanese brand’s march towards full electrification.
Lexus has said that by 2030 its entire model line-up will be fully electric, and the RZ is the first of its models to be built on a dedicated EV platform. It’s the same e-TNGA platform on which the Toyota BZ4X sits, but Lexus differentiates the RZ from its mainstream cousin with a more powerful drivetrain and more demanding construction methods and processes.
Sitting between the NX and RX hybrid SUVs, the RZ is pitched directly at premium models like the BMW iX3, Audi Q8 e-tron and Mercedes-Benz EQC, and promises 313bhp, all-wheel-drive and up to 270 miles of range.
