The 2026 Lexus RZ improves in the areas that matter most: comfort, smoothness and steering precision. Changes to the chassis and suspension make the electric SUV feel more natural on mixed roads, with a less filtered response than before.
It remains a car aimed at buyers who value build quality and cabin quietness more than outright thrills. In Italy, its appeal comes mainly from efficiency, rich equipment and premium image, even if the price stays firmly in the upper range.
