Crafted to a Higher Standard
LEXUS RZ500e
At Lexus, we listen to the Earth’s unheard voice. For our Next Chapter, we developed the RZ on a BEV-specific platform to pursue a new joy of driving exclusive to Lexus. Lexus has always been, and will always be, driven to stimulate and liberate the senses. We strive to help people feel the voice that humanity has yet to hear, to feel the planet we call Earth and to move forward together with it.
MEET THE RZ
It is a world rich with nature’s language, from the resonance of water carried up a tree to the crunch of a beetle chewing. In the same way, we mixed the distinctive timbre of BEV driving — a pleasant medley of motor and gears and inverters to create the voice of the RZ, using its adulterated sound. It’s a heart-to-heart conversation between our home planet and the driver for a future filled with joy and prosperity.

The multi-color illumination around the instrument panel creates a spacious, immersive atmosphere even at night. 14 colors were carefully selected to express the changing emotions and feelings of witnessing beautiful natural phenomena.
Interior Space
The long wheelbase provides a spacious rear seat space with a couple distance of 1,000mm (39.3in). The rearward peaked cabin silhouette allows ample rear headroom, providing a sense of spaciousness for passengers. In addition, the panoramic roof further lends a feeling of wide openness and front-to-rear expansiveness.
Cockpit ( Tazuna concept )
The cockpit design is based on the Tazuna concept, a layout that advances Lexus' humancentered philosophy. Inspired by Tazuna, Japanese for the reins that riders use to control a horse, the steering wheel features switches that are precisely synced with the Head-up Display, creating a space where drivers can concentrate on driving. Navigation, audio, and various functions can be controlled without the need for extra eye movement or complicated switch operations.
Design Concept - Front
The spindle grille, an icon of Lexus design, has evolved from a graphic into a three-dimensional mass we call the "spindle body". The three-dimensional front fenders - made possible through the combined efforts of design and manufacturing technology - flank both sides of the central spindle body, while the shapes and color scheme assert the Lexus BEV character.
Design Concept – Side
The front fenders seemingly wrap around the wheels and tires, then flow rearward to express a powerful forward momentum. The strong three-dimensional shape over the rear fenders emphasizes the tires width and communicates the dynamic performance of DIRECT4. In addition, the flowing contrast of the doors sculpted shapes creates a seductive and visually impactful surface quality.
Design Concept – Rear
The rear features a simple, precise horizontal design matched to the hips to highlight the wide stance, and express the RZ's torque-filled performance identity. The Lexus name logo is integrated into the horizontal rear combination lamps, the thinner red lens in the center of the light bar running underneath accentuates the logo type and reinforces the sharp look.
EXTERIOR
The Lexus RZ showcases a sleek and aerodynamic design, defined by bold lines, a distinctive spindle-inspired front fascia, and striking LED lighting. Its modern silhouette and confident stance reflect the innovative character of Lexus' all-electric luxury vehicle.
PERFORMANCE
The Lexus Driving Signature is a uniquely Lexus driving experience that aims to deliver predictable, linear response according to the driver's intentions, providing an exhilarating feel of seamlessly connected acceleration, steering and deceleration in all driving conditions. It endows the RZ with impressive fundamental performance using high-precision motor torque control, together with optimal battery and motor placement to create ideal weight distribution and high response. It shapes "The Natural" driving concept based on the DIRECT4 AWD (All-Wheel-Drive) system that controls front and rear drive force according to driving and road surface conditions, providing driving performance that directly responds according to the driver's input. It also takes the Lexus Driving Signature to an even higher level.

Aerodynamics
Design modelling made possible by a BEV and a focus on the reduction of aerodynamic drag (Cd) contributed to excellent aerodynamic performance that extends the cruising range. A longitudinal vortex generated by the sides of the distinctive roof spoiler suppresses aerodynamic force on the body in a crosswind, enhancing driving stability. The center of the roof is shaped to allow air to flow smoothly from the sloped rear glass surface to the rear of the vehicle.
