Lexus will reveal its first dedicated battery-powered electric vehicle, the RZ 450e, during an online program on April 20.

The luxury brand will use the reveal to share more details about the RZ 450e – the newest model in the Lexus Electrified line-up.

It is the first new model to be unveiled since Lexus announced its vision for battery-powered EVs to make up 100% of its global vehicle sales by 2035.
