New Lexus RZ 450e launches firm's EV push with 309bhp and 4WD
Lexus touts the low centre of gravity afforded by this under-floor battery as a bonus for driving dynamics, adding that"advanced construction processes" mean the chassis is as stiff as possible, thus ensuring"precise handling and response and ride comfort".
The RZ 450e launches with a new 'Direct4' four-wheel-drive powertrain comprising a pair of compact electric motors - one with 201bhp at the front and another with 107bhp at the rear, giving combined outputs of 308bhp and 321lb ft. Audi Q4 E-tron 50 QuattroThe Direct4 system , which will be rolled out to future Lexus EVs, allows for torque vectoring between the axles for optimal turn-in response and stability in cornering.
Lexus, like Toyota, is planning to bring its first bespoke EV to market with an unusual yoke-style steering wheel and a steer-by-wire system, which eliminates the mechanical linkage between the front wheels and the driver.
