Only single phase AC charging by default. In this price range?
Yeah I think do the review, because it’s Lexus first ground up EV. Apparently Lexus has updated the buffer situation on the battery so I keen to see it.of course the 1000km challenge is a must.
It looks great and that color is amazing! But Toyota EVs suck. So do the German EVs unfortunately. If I’ve learnt anything from years of watching Bjorns videos, it’s that if you want an EV, just get a Tesla (maybe an Xpeng) 😢
absolutely want to see your review
maybe the BZ4X cold weather range debackle. they got scared?
I have seen them on the road, but a very rare sight. Hopefully sales will pick up once they fix the charging and inefficiency problems on the update.
Every time I see the low hump of the middle tunnel in the back, I know seating in the back will be bad because of low seat height. (filled foot wells)
another guy who has a hardon for lexus/toyota EVs for no good reason. not everyone is driving 500 miles per day like these youtube "EV reviewers."
You should test it. Please check is this car unstable while accelerating hard. Lexus NX is unstable, feels like raising front and loosing control on front wheels.
The Lexus RX is a hugely popular car in North America. The RZ looks a lot like a BEV RX but it is based off the bZ4x, which means even as great as Lexus can screw together a luxury car it is meh as a EV at best. In Canada you can't buy a RZ unless you live in EV friendly province like BC or QC, which kind of shows how much confidence Lexus Canada has about its prospects.
I'm definitely curious to see if Toyota has managed to learn how to build a good EV yet, pre-refresh bZ4X was very disappointing.
Isn't this just a BZ4X with a different skin?
I would like ro see you test this car, particularly keen to see if it's progressed from Chademo to CCS2 charge port, as here in UK the former is still being used on the UX300e (as at the last time I looked).
Bjorn: slanders Toyota customers in almost every video featuring him driving
Also Bjorn: wonders why Toyota is ghosting him
😂
Beautiful design to be honest ♥️
It would be good if you tested it, especially for 1000 km, because you can find extremely different opinions on the Internet – from admiration to extreme negatives. It is more or less known what is wrong with this car, but there are people who really appreciate driving its cheaper siblings (Subaru Solterra or Toyota with a name similar to the names of Elon's children). Fast charging is a particular problem, especially several times during one route – and you always check this during a 1000 km challenge.
Instead of a glove compartment, they have a radiant heater, one for the passenger and one under the steering wheel for the driver. It works together with the seat heater.
My guess is that Lexus is waiting for an update, the same as the Toyota BZ4X received before, before you can test it.
I look forward to your test of the car.
The thing who sitcks out behind the roof is called vortex generators. Helps decrease drag
Why call it a luxury Toyota in the thumb? Is there a specific reason around this car? Or are basically all Lexus' luxury Toyota's because the cars are made by the same company?
it seems to be getting worse the negative publicity about electric cars they must be worried
The worst of both worlds with those door handles. You don't get the aerodynamics of flush handles, and you have more electronics for no reason.
It has no glove box, please test it!
The catflap in the center console is hilarious 😂
Toyota announced on its press room it will launch a new AC for the battery from July on. Maybe that’s why they stay mute. Maybe you’ll drive a prototype soon…
Björn waiting for a thai Version on this Car. Seeing those arround Thailand. Many Toyota & Lexus.😂
❤❤❤
What's with these names? Stars and planets names are easier than toyota companies cars
