Which 2026 Lexus Electric Vehicle Has the Longest Range? ES 350e, RZ 350e, ES 500e AWD, and RZ 450e Compared

The 2026 Lexus BEV lineup spans five models across two vehicle nameplates: the RZ (an SUV) and the all-new all-electric ES (a sedan). Every model is a pure battery electric vehicle: no combustion engine, no plug-in hybrid mode, just electric drive from a dedicated BEV platform. Range figures below are manufacturer-estimated at 100% charge in 20–30°C conditions. Actual range will vary based on weather, driving habits, and vehicle load.

This guide ranks all 2026 Lexus BEV models by estimated driving range, from highest to lowest, so you can see at a glance which model covers the most distance between charges.

A front-wheel-drive model and the first FWD RZ offered in Canada, its BEV powertrain generates 224 total system horsepower with a manufacturer-estimated range of up to 486 km. The RZ 350e is designed for buyers who prioritize daily range and efficiency in an SUV body, and it is available in Signature grade with the full Lexus Interface package and NACS charging port standard.
