At the heart of the ‘Lexus Electrified’ vision is the need to offer existing Lexus models with electrified powertrains — something Lexus is committed to offering across lines by 2035. But Lexus also recognizes the need to create entirely new vehicles that push the boundaries of what Battery EVs look and feel like.In just a glance, the RZ 450e speaks volumes about its innovative design, inside and out. By replacing the traditional spindle grille with a BEV Spindle Body, the exterior design of the RZ expresses an aesthetic that ushers in a new generation of Lexus style. A unique roof spoiler tops the vehicle and reduces aerodynamic force, and, because there’s no engine to cool, the hood sits lower for an especially sleek silhouette.By far, the biggest challenge Lexus faced in designing an entirely new BEV was delivering on the Lexus Driving Signature experience with an entirely electric drivetrain. The 2023 Lexus RZ 450e accomplishes just that. With optimal placement of battery and motor, the RZ achieves the best weight distribution for responsiveness. The DIRECT4 all-wheel drive controls the front and rear drive force according to driving conditions for a serene sensation known as “The Natural.”Additionally, the new eAxle (electronic axle) system also adds to the Lexus Driving Signature by integrating the motor, transaxle and inverter for more cruise range and interior space.
Seven minutes and 14 seconds. That’s how quickly a flashy yellow Lexus LFA supercar covered a lap around the famed Nürburgring Nordschleife racing course in 2011—setting what was then a production-car record for the famed driving circuit.At the time, the performance-auto world was set afire by the news, but to the Lexus team that had honed the 500-plus-horsepower* Lexus LFA for a decade, this was no surprise. The limited-edition V10 Lexus LFA made numerous strides in performance-vehicle materials, aerodynamics, and agility, and much of its development influenced Lexus-model performance over the next 10 years—from F SPORT vehicles to Lexus motorsports.Fast forward to late 2021, when Lexus President Akio Toyoda revealed that Lexus will develop an all-electric sports car that inherits the driving taste, or “secret sauce,” of the LFA performance experience.
With the new NX, Lexus is opening a new chapter in the history of the Japanese premium automobile brand: The second generation of the SUV model features a further developed body design and is driving electrification further with the first plug-in hybrid from Lexus and the latest hybrid generation Ahead. At the same time, the new NX offers driving dynamics improvements for an active and networked driving experience, multimedia and connectivity of the next generation as well as new technologies for more safety and comfort.The new NX replaces a model that has been very successful for Lexus in Europe. Since its launch in 2014, more than 170,000 units have been sold - mostly to customers who are driving a Lexus for the first time. The NX has thus also made a significant contribution to the growth of the brand in Germany.
