Lexus RZ is an all–wheel drive premium crossover of the mid-size segment and, concurrently, the "firstborn" of the Japanese brand on the modular electric platform e-TNGA. Moreover, it became the first mass-produced Lexus electric car in history, which will be sold worldwide. The Lexus RZ world premiere took place on April 20, 2022 during an online presentation, but its conceptual precursor called LF-Z Electrified debuted back in April 2021 at the stands of the Shanghai International Motor Show. The electric crossover is offered in one all–wheel drive version – Lexus RZ 450e, which is driven by two electric motors: the power of the front is 204 horsepower, the rear is 109 hp. The total potential of the electric drive is 313 hp and 435 Nm of torque, while the thrust between the axles can be distributed in a ratio from 0:100 to 100:0.
