The new Lexus RZ 450e - The Lexus Driving Signature

Maintaining the characteristic Lexus Driving Signature in the RZ was also a top priority during development. Therefore, the essential qualities of the vehicle - confidence, control and comfort - should also be strengthened in all driving situations. In addition, BEV-typical advantages such as fast response and high precision are exploited to the fullest. Chief engineer Takashi Watanabe used the principle of "The Natural" as a development concept: He focused on achieving a natural driving feel and thus enhancing ride quality. The optional steer-by-wire system "One Motion Grip" and the precise DIRECT4 all-wheel drive system reliably implement the driver's inputs. Particular attention has been paid to providing the driver with an ergonomic look on the one hand and feedback on the other, ensuring precise control of the driving behavior at all times.
