Key Features
Performance and Specifications
The RZ offers two electric powertrain options: the RZ 300e with a single motor, and the RZ 450e with dual motors, both designed for a smooth and exhilarating driving experience. The RZ 550e, an F SPORT variant, takes this a step further with Lexus' first Interactive Manual Drive system, offering precise control over power output via paddle shifters. The vehicle's lithium-ion battery capacity remains at 77.0 kWh, providing an estimated range of approximately 266 miles.
Interior Features
Comfort and technology abound in the RZ's cabin, with dual-zone climate control, heated seats, a heated steering wheel, and advanced ambient lighting. The infotainment system is equipped with a 14-inch touchscreen, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, and cloud-based navigation. Premium audio systems, including a 13-speaker setup in the Luxury trim, ensure an immersive audio experience.
Exterior Features
The RZ's stylish exterior is enhanced by features such as bi-LED headlamps, Blade Taillamp, and a panoramic glass roof. Typically, the vehicle includes 18-inch alloy wheels, with options for larger sizes like 20-inch on the Luxury trim.
Safety and Convenience
Standard safety features include blind-spot monitoring, lane-keeping assist, forward collision warning with automatic braking, and adaptive cruise control. Convenience features include a power tailgate with a kick sensor, SmartAccess key, and a wireless charging pad.
Trims and Options
The RZ is available in Base, Premium, and Luxury trims, each offering increasing levels of luxury and technology. Optional features include a dynamic sunroof, headlight washers, and a digital rearview mirror.
Innovations in the 2025 Lexus RZ
In addition to its key features, the updated RZ introduces several innovations. To combat road and wind noise, Lexus has applied additional insulation to the tonneau cover, rear door trim, and load compartment. The vehicle's cabin has been enhanced with features like a panoramic roof with dimming functionality, ambient lighting, and a newly developed Ultrasuede trim made from sustainable plant-based materials.
Central to the RZ's evolution is Lexus' first steer-by-wire system, aiming to provide a smoother and more responsive driving experience. Lexus is also focusing on minimizing noise and vibration, with measures such as a newly integrated floor silencer, enhanced soundproofing, and additional insulation.
The latest iteration of the RZ also includes a new front-wheel-drive variant and a reengineered battery system. However, no mention of changes to the estimated driving range has been made. The RZ is set to arrive in European markets in autumn 2025. With these updates, the 2025 Lexus RZ continues to push the boundaries of luxury electric SUVs.
