Lexus RZ

Lexus's first purpose-built electric car, on the e-TNGA platform shared with the Toyota bZ4X and Subaru Solterra — so the high-voltage architecture, the pack and much of the drive hardware are Toyota's, and that is where the deeper information is. The RZ is also the car offered with steer-by-wire and a yoke in some markets: there is no mechanical column at all on those, which changes the steering diagnosis completely and is the first thing to establish. A 71.4 kWh pack, 400 volts, front and rear motors on the dual-motor cars.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
