Lexus Sets March 2 Launch for RZ 600e F Sport Performance in Japan

The dual‑motor EV arrives as the line’s most powerful model offered without a production cap.

Overview

  • The special edition delivers 313 kW from a dual‑motor AWD setup, good for 0–100 km/h in 4.4 seconds and a WLTC range of up to 525 km from a 76.96–77 kWh battery.
  • Ride height drops 20 mm with larger 20‑inch brakes behind 21‑inch Enkei wheels, paired with aero components derived from the earlier RZ 450e F Sport Performance.
  • Steer‑by‑wire features a yoke‑style control with Lexus’s Interactive Manual Drive for a more involved steering feel.
  • Pricing in Japan is set at ¥12,165,000 for the Black/Neutrino Gray finish and ¥12,440,000 for Black/Hakugin II.
  • Development drew input from air race pilot Yoshihide Muroya and racing driver Masahiro Sasaki, with sales confined to Japan for now and no announced plans for other markets.
