The current new energy vehicle market is becoming more and more intense, and many car companies have joined the new energy car manufacturing camp, including those traditional car companies. As a second-tier luxury brand in China, Lexus is naturally not to be outdone, and its Lexus RZ has attracted the attention of many consumers when it was first launched, but due to the high price, this car has not achieved too good results in terms of sales. However, just recently, the Lexus RZ welcomed its own 2024 model, and the new car is currently available in two models on sale, with a price range of 3559-37.990,000 yuan, and optimized the optional configuration, so as to meet the diversified needs of different consumers. Let's take a look at how the new Lexus RZ performs
Friends who are familiar with Lexus must know that it has always had its own characteristics in the exterior design, and the same is true for this new Lexus RZ, although these two models are brand new models, but they are still consistent with the current model in terms of appearance, and they do have a good performance in terms of recognition, such as in the front face part, the new car adopts a closed grille design, and the undulating design language makes its front face more layered. At the same time, in terms of the car logo, the new car also adopts a light-up design, with sharp headlight groups on both sides of the front of the car, in terms of overall aesthetics, it is still in place.
Coming to the side of the body, the side design of the new Lexus RZ is relatively simple, but there is one thing I personally think is very good, that is, its door handle adopts traditional design techniques, and the body posture of the car is also a sunken design, so the visual center of gravity is relatively low, and in the shape of the roof, the new car also adopts a fastback body attitude, coupled with a close-spoke large-size wheel, in the overall sense of sport, it also has a sense of shaping.
As for the rear design, the design of the new Lexus RZ is more decent, with a small-sized spoiler shape on the roof, and below the spoiler is the structure of the through-type taillight cluster, which still has a good performance in terms of recognition after being lit.
In terms of interior design, in fact, the new Lexus RZ is not in line with the times, compared with the old model, the new car is only in some optional configurations for a more flexible plan, so that users can choose the required optional items according to their preferences. In terms of intelligence, the new car uses a 7-inch full LCD instrument and a 14-inch central control screen, although the size is the current mainstream, but the design method of the new Lexus RZ does have a nondescript feeling.
In terms of intelligent interconnection functions, in addition to the most basic equipment, the new car also adopts functions such as 4G in-vehicle network and voice recognition control system (including continuous voice recognition and main driver zonal wake-up). In our daily car use process, the existence of these functions will make our daily car use more convenient.
The all-new Lexus RZ uses a front-mounted single motor in terms of power, with a maximum output of 150kW and a maximum output torque of 2663n·m。I have to say that in the same class of models, the power performance of the new car is not very good, and it can even be described as pulling the crotch, however, its performance in the power battery is not bad, 67The 5 kWh power battery gives it a pure electric range of 614km.
Conclusion
Overall, this new Lexus RZ as a pure electric B-class car, it has a good performance in terms of appearance and intelligent configuration of the interior, but it is only its rich selection items, for ordinary consumers, it is not very friendly, but this does not prevent its appearance to provide a new choice for us to buy a car. Just combined with its price, the performance of this car in terms of cost performance is not high, after all, at this price we can already buy intelligent and endurance is also ahead of this car's medium and large SUVs, so on the whole, the emergence of the new Lexus RZ has indeed enriched the car's product matrix, but it is still a little unrealistic to recover its declining sales.
