Find chargers on the map →Who it suits
Lexus buyers who want the better-equipped RZ. It has the same 71.4 kWh battery, about 400 km claimed range and 230 kW as the EX, with a 522 litre boot and an 8 year / 160 000 km battery warranty.
Who should look elsewhere
Buyers who want the best value. It costs about R170 000 more than the EX for the same drivetrain, and we have not found charging speeds or seat details. The usable battery size should be checked.
