Video Summary
Here is a summary of the YouTube video review of the electric car:- This is Lexus's first all-electric vehicle, a small luxury crossover.
- The premium model starts around $60,000 and the luxury model starts around $65,000.
- The RZ is based on the Toyota bZ4X and Subaru Solterra.
- The RZ has standard dual-motor all-wheel drive with more power.
- 0-60 mph is around 5.5 seconds, which isn't that good.
- Range is rated for 220 miles with the smaller 18-inch wheels, but 196 miles with the luxury 20-inch wheels. This is not impressive compared to the competition.
- Tesla Model Y does 0-60 in 4.8 seconds, with a 330-mile range and starts at $55,000, making it cheaper than the RZ.
- All the rivals have a longer-range figure than the RZ.
- Styling is a benefit compared to the Toyota bZ4X and Subaru Solterra.
- A yoke steering wheel is an option, but you can also get a regular steering wheel.
- Doors are opened electronically.
- The back seat is surprisingly roomy, the seats are full Alcantara, but rear passengers cannot control the sunroof.
- The car has a 14-inch center infotainment touch screen with pros and cons. You cannot split the screen to display multiple things at once, but the climate control panel is always visible.
- The gauge cluster screen ahead of the steering wheel isn't all that great, but the heads-up display makes up for some of that.
- There is a surprisingly decent amount of cargo space.
- The reviewer concludes the car is "fine." The technology and performance are decent. Range is disappointing, and the price is high.
