The 2025 Lexus RZ lineup is expanding and becoming more affordable compared to the previous year. The introduction of a new base model for both the front-wheel-drive RZ300e and all-wheel-drive RZ450e has led to a significant price drop across the board. The entry point for the front-wheel-drive RZ300e now starts at $43,975, which is $11,175 less than last year.
Previously, the RZ300e and RZ450e were only available in Premium or Luxury trims. With the addition of the new base model, customers now have a more affordable option to choose from. The 2025 RZ300e Premium has also seen a substantial price cut to $48,175, a difference of nearly $7,000 from the 2024 version. The Luxury trim of the RZ300e now starts at $53,905, following the price reduction trend.
On the other hand, the new base model for the RZ450e is priced at $48,675, which is $11,175 less than the cheapest all-wheel-drive RZ model in 2024. The price cuts also apply to the RZ450e Premium and Luxury trims, starting at $52,875 and $58,605 respectively.
Lexus has announced that the 2025 RZ, manufactured in Toyota, Japan, will be available for sale in the United States later this year. This move to expand the RZ lineup and reduce prices aims to make the luxury brand’s electric vehicle more accessible to a wider range of customers.
