2024 Lexus RZ SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2024 Lexus RZ is available in two models: the new entry-level RZ 300e and the returning RZ 450e. The RZ 300e comes with a single electric motor (201 horsepower and 196 lb-ft of torque) that drives the front wheels. Lexus estimates it will offer 266 miles of range on a single charge (224 miles with 20-inch wheels). The RZ 450e adds a second motor for all-wheel drive with a combined output of 308 hp and 320 lb-ft of torque. The EPA estimates it will achieve 220 miles of range (196 miles with the 20-inch wheels).

Which RZ trim does Edmunds recommend?

Deciding between the new RZ 300e and the RZ 450e will likely come down to your range needs as well your potential need for all-wheel drive. After that, we suggest stepping up to the Luxury trim. For a rather reasonable price, you get several items that enhance comfort along with premium audio and additional driver assist features.
