Lexus introduces new model to its all-electric RZ lineup

Lexus has announced that a special-edition model, the RZ 600e "F Sport Performance", will be joining its RZ lineup. This new model will be available from 2 March 2026.

Based on the RZ 550e "F Sport", which features a comprehensively renewed BEV system, the Special Edition RZ 600e "F Sport Performance" further elevates the core strengths of F Sport Performance. Through the powerful downforce generated by exclusive aerodynamic components and further enhanced motor output, it delivers exceptional handling stability and pursues a driving experience that is both sporty and progressive.

The RZ was developed as Lexus' first BEV-dedicated model

In addition, higher motor output combined with the adoption of larger brakes delivers confident braking performance and assured dynamic capability. By reassessing battery output limits and producing max output of 313kW from the system as a whole, the vehicle achieves an emotionally exhilarating and smooth acceleration. In addition, 20-inch large diameter brake rotors have been adopted to fully harness the vehicle's performance, enhancing braking power.

Optimised for sports driving, the brake feel delivers precise control and a heightened sense of connection, allowing the vehicle to be driven exactly as intended. A unique steering wheel designed for Steer-by-Wire provides the next generation steering feel, and is paired with Interactive Manual Drive, which amplifies the joy of driving.

The RZ 600e "F Sport Performance" features front seats crafted with an integrated foam moulding process

The exterior is offered in two colour schemes: Black and Hakugin II with a matt clear finish, and Black and Neutrino Gray as featured on the RZ 550e "F Sport". These finishes accentuate the body form engineered for high levels of handling stability and aerodynamic performance, conveying the vehicle's sporty character. In addition, blue accents set against the contrasting black body express a fresh and invigorating driving experience.

In the interior, the RZ 600e "F Sport Performance" features front seats crafted with an integrated foam moulding process. They provide secure body support during sporty driving while still offering everyday comfort, creating a unique cabin environment where sportiness and refinement coexist.
