The latest in Lexus’ electrified vehicle lineup is on display at the 2022 Electrify Expo at the Long Beach Convention Center. The event, which features the newest electric vehicles, bikes, motorcycles and more, is the first- time consumers can see the all-new battery-electric 2023 Lexus RZ 450e in person alongside the all-new 2022 NX 450h+ plug-in hybrid.
The all-new 2023 Lexus RZ 450e embodies the unique Lexus vehicle design and driving experience made available through advanced, electrified technology. The utilization of a BEV-specific platform (e-TNGA), as well as a lightweight and highly rigid body, has enhanced the fundamental performance of the vehicle by achieving optimal weight distribution through the ideal placement of the battery and motor.
In addition, the DIRECT4 all-wheel-drive system and the adoption of a new steering control and available Steer by Wire system (at a future date) enable vehicle control that is truer to the driver’s intention. The Lexus RZ’s exterior design expresses the seamless acceleration and dynamic torque-filled performance specific to BEVs, ushering in a new Lexus aesthetic and establishing a new design direction for BEV offerings. The RZ uses the latest Lexus Safety System+ 3.0, including standard Pre-Collision System, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert and Emergency Driving Stop System.
