By , editorUpdated How we work out these numbers

The EPA rates the 2026 Lexus RZ 350e FWD at 301 miles combined and 26.6 kWh per 100 miles measured at the wall, which is 126 MPGe. City and highway split 324 and 273 miles, a 16 per cent drop on the highway.

Those figures come from the regulator and are used in the comparison tables, the efficiency and range rankings and the per-state charging costs on this site. The rest of the record is not yet sourced: usable battery capacity and DC peak power have no published figure credited here, so this page does not state them. They will appear when they can be credited to a named source, and not before.

Range & efficiency

EPA, WLTP and CLTC are different tests, not different opinions about one number. They sit side by side here and are never converted into one another.

Charging

Peak power is a marketing number. The 10 to 80 percent time and the shape of the curve are what you actually wait through.

Performance

Acceleration is quoted per market: manufacturers publish 0-60 mph in the US and 0-100 km/h in Europe, measured differently.

Safety & risk

Crash ratings come from the testing bodies. The battery safety score is our own composite and its formula is published on the methodology page.

Battery or high-voltage recalls1NHTSA recall database — battery, electrical and powertrain campaigns only, last four model years · 2026-09
Recall history notes26V393000 (electrical system:propulsion system): The electronic control unit (ECU) that controls the high voltage battery may experience a fault, resulting in a loss of drive power.

Projected battery capacity

Projected straight-line from 2.7% a year — the published rate for this vehicle class, not a measurement of this car. Nobody releases per-model degradation data: the one fleet dataset large enough to matter anonymises the models. Capacity loss is driven as much by calendar age as by mileage, which is why it is reported per year rather than per kilometre. Real packs vary with climate, how long the car sits at a high state of charge, and how much of its charging is done at high-power DC.
