Introducing the 2023 Lexus RZ 450e

When Lexus decides to create a new vehicle, it goes all out. The 2023 Lexus RZ 450e is the first-ever all-electric SUV from the maker, and it upholds all the standards you expect in a luxury vehicle. Keyes Lexus of Valencia in Valencia, CA, shares the details that make this SUV stunning.

2023 Lexus RZ 450e Performance

Driving the 2023 Lexus RZ 450e is a marvel. Not just designed with one electric motor, this SUV has two under the hood.

A 150-kW motor capable of 201 horsepower turns the front wheels, while an 80-kW motor with 107 horsepower turns the rear set. Together, the two engines provide 308 horsepower, with 320 lb-ft of torque.

The battery that powers the twin engines is located under the floor of the SUV, providing a low center of gravity and moment of inertia, translating to smoother handling.

Also in the new category is the eAxle system, a high-output electronic axle that fully integrates the motor, transaxle, and inverter in one small unit. Not only does it add to the spacious interior, but it helps with the cruises range, too.

2023 Lexus RZ 450e Design

Sleek lines, subtle curves, and aerodynamics make up the silhouette of the 2023 Lexus RZ 450e exterior design. The signature Lexus spindle grille is replaced by a Spindle Body since there isn't any need for an internal combustion engine exhaust system. Instead, the design supplies the SUV with optimizing proportions and style.

Inside, the cockpit is designed to suit the driver and ensure every control and instrument is easily within reach or view. A Head-Up Display aids in keeping eyes on the road.

The space inside is roomy for everyone, and a panoramic sunroof adds to the open feel.
