The RZ 450e features DIRECT4 all-wheel drive that independently controls front and rear motors for precise handling. The steer-by-wire yoke steering (optional) was a bold but divisive choice.

Frequently Asked Questions
The RZ offers Lexus build quality and refinement in an EV. It's not the longest-range or fastest-charging option, but it's quiet, comfortable, and beautifully made. It competes with the BMW iX and Genesis GV60.
The BMW iX offers more range and faster charging. The RZ counters with Lexus reliability, a lower price, and superior build quality in some areas. The iX is more tech-forward; the RZ is more traditionally luxurious.
The steer-by-wire yoke is optional and divisive. Some love the futuristic feel and reduced turns lock-to-lock. Others find it awkward for parking. Most buyers choose the conventional steering wheel.
