2023 Lexus RZ450e Finally, An EV That’s Worth It

2023 Lexus RZ450e – Lexus will closely follow Toyota in the EV battle with a brand new model, which we are aware of as the RZ. Based on these pictures it seems closely related to the Toyota bZ4X however it appears to be distinctively styled on the front and rear end which are in line with the present Lexus design standard. The production model was first shown through the Lexus’ LF-Z Electrified concept that was revealed earlier this year. It is one of the very initial Lexus EVs to the sold in the U.S., following the UX300e that is exclusively sold in China.

We’re anticipating the RZ to sport its RZ450e designation since Lexus already has trademarked the name. The number is 450, which suggests greater power the bZ4X has in its two-motor form and we believe that Lexus will have an all-wheel-drive two-motor setup.

We’d anticipate that the Lexus to cost about $50,000, and an F Sport version will probably be in the range. More details are expected to be released regarding the Lexus RZ by the end of 2022.
