The Lexus hybrid lineup includes gas-electric versions of popular models like the ES, NX, and RX — but for drivers looking to eliminate the use of gasoline altogether, the new age of all-electric driving begins with the Lexus RZ 450e release date! Expected in early 2023, the 2023 Lexus RZ 450e electric SUV is an all-electric crossover that’s designed to elevate your everyday drives in Princeton, NJ.

 

 

2023 Lexus RZ 450e Electric SUV Performance Specs

With the Lexus RZ 450e release date, the world will witness the first sign of what’s to come for the trendsetting luxury brand — and we’re sure that no performance-minded driver will be disappointed by what’s possible in the all-electric future! Here’s a preview of the Lexus RZ 450e performance specs and technologies:

  • Wondering how far you’ll be able to go on a single charge? Lexus projects a range of up to 220 miles for the RZ 450e.
  • With 312 total system horsepower and up to an EPA-estimated 196 MI with 20-inch wheels, you won’t be choosing between a thrilling drive and going fuel-free.
  • A Lexus-first dedicated battery electric platform mounts a 71.4 kWh battery under the vehicle floor, enhancing stability and bringing you a smoother ride on Hamilton, NJ roads.
  • The motor, transaxle, and inverter are integrated within a newly developed high-output electronic axle (eAxle), increasing cruise range and opening up space inside the cabin and cargo area.
  • DIRECT4 all-wheel drive is at the core of Lexus Electrified, and it comes standard across the RZ line. The system uses vehicle wheel speed, acceleration, steering angle sensor information, and user input to fine-tune front-to-rear drive force ratio distribution between 100:0 and 0:100. The result is better stability on all surfaces, quicker response and acceleration, and lower power consumption.

Here’s a brief look at how the 2023 Lexus RZ 450e electric SUV interior advances the human-centered philosophy of Lexus:

  • Designed for better concentration, the steering wheel can be equipped with controls for functions such as navigation, audio, and drive mode select.
  • Gorgeous cabin materials transform your experience behind the wheel, like a steering wheel trimmed with the same material as the tazuna reins favored by traditional Japanese equestrians.
