Frequently Asked Questions

01

What are the prices and features of the 2023 Lexus RZ in Canada?

The 2023 Lexus RZ 450e is Lexus's first dedicated electric SUV, offered in Canada in Premium (starting around $64,950), Luxury (around $72,950), and F Sport Design (around $74,950) trims. It uses two permanent magnet electric motors — one on each axle — for a combined output of 308 hp and 435 lb-ft of torque with standard all-wheel drive (e-AWD). The 71.4 kWh battery delivers an estimated range of approximately 354 km according to Natural Resources Canada. DC fast charging at up to 150 kW allows a 10 to 80 percent charge in approximately 30 minutes. The RZ qualifies for the federal iZEV rebate of $5,000. The cabin features the optional One Motion Grip steer-by-wire yoke on select configurations — a world first.

02

How does the 2023 Lexus RZ compare to the Audi Q4 e-tron or BMW iX3 in Canada?

The 2023 Lexus RZ 450e is priced above the Audi Q4 e-tron (starting around $54,900) and broadly comparable to the BMW iX3 (around $71,500). In terms of range, the RZ (354 km) trails both the Q4 e-tron (412 km) and the iX3 (435 km) slightly. The RZ's maximum charging speed (150 kW) is competitive. The RZ's advantage lies in Lexus's recognized build quality, lower long-term maintenance costs, and the brand's reliability history. The RZ interior is exceptionally refined with premium materials throughout. For Canadian buyers who place high value on long-term reliability and service costs, the RZ represents a safer investment despite its higher purchase price.

03

How well does the 2023 Lexus RZ handle Canadian winters with its battery?

The 2023 Lexus RZ 450e is equipped with an active thermal battery management system with both heating and cooling to maintain the battery within its optimal temperature range. In temperatures below -15 degrees C, range may decrease by 25 to 35 percent — expect approximately 230 to 265 km in severe Canadian winters. The programmable pre-conditioning feature via the Lexus app allows the cabin and battery to be warmed while still plugged in, preserving range for the trip ahead. The e-AWD system with active torque vectoring provides excellent traction on snow and ice. Lexus recommends dedicated winter tires for Canadian provinces with heavy snowfall. The battery warranty covers 8 years or 160,000 km against excessive degradation.
