The Lexus RZ battery-electric SUV pushes the boundaries of what it means to be a Lexus. It's more of everything the luxury arm of Toyota Motor Company is good at, but comes with some experimental technology that Americans may have a hard time adapting too.. If you do, you're both right and wrong. While much of the architecture is the same, the power source, drive dynamics, interior appeal, and technology is different. That's what makes it a Lexus, and a good one at that.
The battery is good for an Environmental Protection Agency-estimated range of 196 to 220 miles, depending on wheel size. Opting for the 20-inchers on the Premium or Luxury model will get the low number while the smaller 18-inch wheels on the RZ 450e Premium offer more range. The automaker let testers try out the company's yoke-like steering wheel, which may be coming to the North American market in a few years, and is slated to arrive in Europe before that.In theory, the non-wheel wheel works as advertised, but some nitty gritty details, like how it handles at a 90-degree intersection and where a driver puts their hands during a long road trip, make it an option to skip.
