Lexus continues to be an authority on electric vehicles — with the sleek 2023 Lexus RZ 450e marking a new age of battery electric vehicles for the luxury marque. Offering the unique driving experience Lexus has become known for, with both substance and style at the fore, the RZ further builds on Lexus’ already exceptional offering as it continues to transition into a BEV (battery-electric vehicle)-centred company.
The RZ not only cements the brand’s standing in the EV space, but proves that the meticulous design Lexus has upheld since its inception in the 80s can translate into their electric vehicles. Craftsmanship and a spirit of excellence have long been the central axis in Lexus vehicles, with the Japanese marque’s Takumi masters some of the world’s most adept car manufacturers. The 2023 RZ 450e is the halo model of the Lexus Electrified vision, and as such, has been developed to offer a uniquely Lexus BEV that feels secure to ride in, is visually striking, and exhilarating to drive.

While the side profile of the RZ is unmistakably Lexus, the front and rear feature Lexus’ new, electrified look, with sleek lines and sharply angled lights speak to the brand’s evolution — establishing a dynamic new design direction for Lexus BEVs.
And, as Lexus places increasingly more emphasis on electric, the consideration of a sleek, functional at-home charging station has been pulled into focus. Given the importance we place on the design of our homes, it’s hardly surprising that the prospect of an unsightly EV charging station is enough to make the design-conscious among us break into a cold sweat. The idea of our driveways — often the first port-of-call for visitors, being visually overtaken by a garish, oversized charging station is a less-than-ideal scenario, but until now, there simply hasn’t been any other option.
This is where the Lexus-recommended Wallbox charging port, comes in. An ideal companion to a Lexus EV — in particular, Lexus’ RZ, as the the Wallbox’s slick, modular form perfectly compliments the vehicle’s unique and aerodynamic design, turning any driveway into a showcase of innovation and intrigue.
With plans to offer one hundred percent BEVs by 2035, it’s little wonder that the brand has a mind to the practicality and visual impact of charging stations, and, as Lexus continues to expand its electrified offering, the Lexus-recommended Wallbox charging port is a smart and sleek addition to the home, offering both practical functionality and stylish substance. The minimal and contemporary design seamlessly integrates with your home’s exterior, fitting any garage or non-covered external walls — a true game-changer for EV owners (or the EV curious).
Ultimately, the sleek Lexus RZ and the Lexus-recommended Wallbox speak not only to the brand’s exciting evolution into BEVs, but the design-led approach Lexus has long been known for — further building on an already strong case for going electric.
