Lexus revealed three images of the new 2023 RZ 450e electric compact crossover on its media site ahead of the vehicle’s planned global reveal on Wednesday.
The images show a new design language from the luxury brand, including the equivalent of a filled-in spindle grille on Lexus’ first battery-electric vehicle, as well as a severe rake to the rear hatch.
The RZ 450e appears similar in size to the bZ4X, the Toyota brand’s first EV designed from the ground up.
Other images released by Lexus show a yoke-style steering wheel.
Full details are scheduled to be released at 6 a.m. EDT Wednesday as part of an online global reveal.
Lexus dealers are eager for the arrival of a BEV, giving them an option for luxury buyers looking to make the jump into fully electric propulsion.
