The 2023 Lexus RZ is Lexus’ newest all-electric addition to their SUV lineup. With futuristic styling on the inside and out and a load of standard luxury features to take advantage of, the 2023 RZ should be one of your top options when looking at electric vehicles.
Basics About the 2023 Lexus RZ
The Lexus RZ was first revealed to the public in 2022, so the 2023 model is the very first iteration of the electric SUV. Of course, Lexus has been in the luxury car game for a while and has a long history of developing hybrid SUVs through the RX and NX-series lines, so there’s still a ton of experience behind the RZ!
New for 2023!
The 2023 RZ comes in two trim levels – the 450e Premium or the 450e Luxury, both of which come in AWD. Both come standard with many of the hallmarks of Lexus luxury, including the SmartAccess wallet-size card that acts as a key for the vehicle, heated steering wheel, and auto-dimming and tilting side view mirrors.
Engine
Both trim levels use an AC synchronous motor that provides a very powerful 308 horsepower, giving the RZ a sporty feel on the road. Going 0-60 mph in 5 seconds flat, you’ll never be lacking speed or acceleration.
The Premium trim has a total driving range of 220 miles, whereas the Luxury boasts a 196-mile range before needing a charge.
Safety Features
Lexus’ built-in safety systems include lane tracing assist, road sign assist, automatic intelligent high beams, a blind spot monitor, and pre-collision warning with special sensors to detect pedestrians and provide additional 360-degree coverage in intersections.
Both RZ models also come standard with a 10-year subscription to Safety Connect and Service Connect, Lexus’ partner that provides live assistance from the vehicle in the event of a collision or emergency.
Interior
The interior of the RZ is built with luxury and comfort in mind – as you wouldn’t expect anything less from Lexus. The Premium comes with an imitation leather interior, while the Luxury trim has an Ultrasuede interior that mimics the suppleness of suede.
The Lexus Memory System is available in both trims so that you and your family members can save their driver profiles for seat, steering wheel, and mirror configurations. The Luxury comes with multicolor ambient lighting, as well as acoustic glass to help soundproof you from the noise on the road.
