1000km range? Yeah, this is bs. Toyota ain't even close to having that kind of tech. They'll just make it fugly, put the same (ES, RZ...) battery/powertrain into it and let the marketing team do the heavy lifting.

Sucks because they once put a patent for this (not sure why Burlappcar put his watermark over these as if they're his to own). Now, I know it could be for the concept car when it came out, but they added side mirrors to it where the original concept never had them. So, it's a little fishy to me. They also patented this one, and I don't recall finding any others. Maybe, someone else on here knows?

No matter what, I think that Sport Sedan concept (or whatever it was called) will no longer exist. In fact, I think that whole family of concept cars they showed back in 2021 won't exist (I mean look at the ES that was teased in the back of it. We didn't even get that. We got something much worse).

Another sad news day for us Lexus "Enthusiasts"

Proposed range is impressive

Proposed range is impressive

Possible only with SSB. Not even a glimpse yet. If they existed, mass production would be announced. Until then, it’s all BS.

On BEV's we must ask - 1000km on which test cycle?

It's increasingly clear that the all-BEV Lexus plan has not changed, just delayed. This is why they never publicly take back that claim while every other brand openly cancelled that.

Not yet out an already behind the electric M3 with 1000 HP.

I am ready to accept EV direction but why on Earth does it have to mean this awful interiors? RZ's front panel and both sterring wheel and yoke (apart from leather replaced by artificial materials) look like Lexus we've known for last 15 years and there's no reason it can't stay that way.

Will never accept a fully electric Lexus or other electric only car. Don´t work for me due to several reasons. Today only RX 450h and 500h is of interest for me. No more RC F or GS F and no more LC 500, not even LC 500h. Had them all. Loved them. New Toyota sports car to expensive, compared with all the mentioned. No real performance chargeable Lexus in sight either. For me, planning getting a new car in aprox. 2 years. Not sure Lexus or Toyota is going to be interesting after 30 years of only Lexus (and one Porsche, that I still are keeping). 🤔

why would it be cancelled?

It is just a question of when.

Thats not hard at all.

Since this would be built with new EV platform in mind, and all the advances such as cell to vehicle, there should be space to do like 110kwh battery.

BZ4X with 70ish battery is doing 746km WLTC.

 

[DarkSpace6383]

Im disappointed in the lack of a hybrid. I wanted an efficient hybrid option.

 

[DarkSpace6383]

Around 500 miles of range EPA then.
WLTP estimates are 22 percent higher than EPA.
