Car lent by a Lexus dealership
Lexus RZ 350e
A quiet, comfortable cabin held back by dated software.
My honest take
A comfortable, quiet and well-built cabin, held back by a dated screen and instrument cluster. I would love Lexus to catch up on software. My opinions are my own.
What I liked
- The interior feels nice and properly Lexus.
- Very good sound insulation on the road.
- A great view out.
- The paddles let you adjust how strong the regenerative braking is.
- Range quoted by the dealership: about 450 km. I did not test it.
What I liked less
- The exterior design felt a bit off to me, personally.
- Some exterior plastics felt less premium than the cabin, and a few moved a little.
- The software is the weak point. The huge screen is only really useful for Android Auto or Apple CarPlay, and on its own it feels outdated.
- The gauge cluster could be better.
What others say
Reported by other reviewers and owners. I did not test these.
Pros
- A quiet, comfortable ride at normal speeds.
- Solid build and a good driving position.
- Very roomy rear seats and a big boot.
Cons
- Real-world range can fall well below the quoted number. In one winter test it managed about 256 km, the lowest of 12 cars.
- DC fast charging peaks at 150 kW, slower than many rivals.
- Touchscreen-only controls.
- Weak regenerative braking and no full one-pedal driving.
- It feels softer than the German rivals over fast bumps.
