VerdictWith some of the beeps and noisier alerts tued down or off, the RZ is far more relaxing to drive. That ambience matches the comfort of the interior, which is packed with quality in both materials and finish. The RZ is also practical, and the range retu is better than expected.

It’s safety first, second and third with Lexus. After three months behind the wheel of our all-electric RZ long-termer, I still can’t answer the £74,000 question: should I switch the tech on or off?
To be clear, the RZ is probably the safest car I’ve ever driven. It has so many clever features and alerts, you would have to be driving like a fool to cause an accident – or perhaps have switched it all off. There is such an abundance of icons that they don’t even fit on one screen of the 14-inch infotainment system. The RZ has all the usual bells and whistles you might expect on a premium SUV: blind-spot monitor, lane-departure alerts, a pre-collision system and parking assist.
Yet there’s a lot more than that within the Lexus Safety Sense+ system. Front cross traffic stops me pulling out at junctions, if I’ve missed an approaching bike or vehicle. Safe-exit assist prevents me opening the door if a car, bicycle or pedestrian is passing. It’s all very clever, and as a lapsed, now-occasional cyclist, I’m a fan.
