Lexus TZ: 6-seat electric SUV with over 400 HP and total luxury
Driving a luxury electric SUV with space for six adults seems like an impossible dream? Well, the Lexus TZ arrives to make you rethink that. With more than 400 HP and all-wheel drive that seems straight out of a futuristic movie, this car doesn’t go unnoticed.
But beyond power and figures, Lexus bets on an interior where comfort and luxury seem to be the rule, not the exception. And that’s no small feat with an SUV of more than five meters.
Lexus TZ: the electric SUV that wants to change everything

🏁 0-100 km/h: 5.4 seconds
An interior designed to captivate
The concept Lexus calls "Driving Lounge" is not just a pretty name. It’s a space where traveling with family or friends transforms into a first-class experience. With a panoramic roof that lets in natural light and a silence so complete it almost seems like magic, this SUV doesn’t just move people, it creates moments.
The six seats are reimagined to be more than just places to sit: heating, ventilation, and even an ottoman-style footrest are just the tip of the iceberg. The third row, often relegated to a secondary role in other SUVs, here is comfortable for adults, helped by the battery placed under the floor that doesn’t steal space.
Materials and technology that make a difference
If you like your cabin to have personality, the Lexus TZ won’t disappoint you. Materials such as forged bamboo that changes color with ambient light and a Mark Levinson sound system with 21 speakers that transports you to a recording studio make every journey a pleasure for the senses.
The minimalist dashboard removes traditional buttons, replaced by hidden switches that light up only when you approach. This seems like something out of a sci-fi movie, but it’s pure Lexus reality.
Exterior design and power that will turn heads
An elegant and aerodynamic presence
The Lexus TZ is not just any SUV: with more than 5 meters in length and a fluid silhouette, its design follows the "Provocative Simplicity" philosophy. It’s no surprise it has an aerodynamic coefficient of just 0.27, very good for a vehicle of this size.
The 20 or 22-inch wheels, L-shaped dual headlights, and exclusive Sonic Tellus color (an earthy khaki green) give it a look that leaves no doubt: it’s an SUV that wants to stand out.
Power and range so you don’t have to worry
Underneath, the Lexus TZ hides an electric system of 300 kW (more than 400 HP) with DIRECT4 all-wheel drive that guarantees agility and stability. The battery, with 95.8 kWh, offers a range of up to 530 km according to the WLTP cycle.
The suspension system, four-wheel steering, and various driving modes, including a Comfort mode that avoids lateral movements, make even third-row passengers travel without motion sickness. Additionally, the Interactive Manual Drive system simulates a manual gear shift with sound and steering wheel vibration, a detail only Lexus dares to offer.
Technology and safety for a modern drive
Infotainment and connectivity
The 14-inch central screen, based on the Arene platform, is fast and intuitive. You can unlock the car without taking your phone out of your pocket and share the digital key with up to six people. The Lexus Link+ app allows you to schedule charging, plan routes, and precondition the battery to charge at 150 kW, making stops less burdensome.
Advanced safety
The Lexus Safety System+ package has been renewed to anticipate more situations, making driving safer for everyone. Whether you’re on the highway or on an urban ring road, this SUV aims to protect you intelligently and effectively.

The Lexus TZ arrives in 2027 with the intent to shake up the luxury electric SUV segment. It’s not a car that wants to blend in with the crowd, but one that wants to bring electrification together with luxury, comfort, and driving pleasure.

The Lexus TZ is proof that an electric SUV can be much more than just a vehicle to get around: it’s a space of luxury, innovation, and experience. And that, in a market full of options, is a real challenge that Lexus seems ready to face boldly.
