LF-ZL is one of the two Lexus concepts prepared for the Japan Mobility Show. The Japanese brand also unveiled the more distinguished LF-ZC, which has a greater chance of production. However, this does not mean that the LF-ZL has none at all.
All the more so because this is a model representing the fashionable segment of luxury crossovers. Although modern lines do not betray this, it measures as much as 208.7 inches in length and has a wheelbase of 131.9 inches. It therefore offers plenty of space in a futuristic cabin, in which it is extraordinarily easy to take a seat due to the lack of a B pillar.
The digital cockpit, based on numerous screens, stands out with a huge tunnel in the middle and a steering wheel instead of a driving wheel. It also provides constant connectivity with the world through advanced multimedia systems.
Lexus does not reveal technical details other than we are dealing with an electric car. Batteries and drive elements are hidden here under a completely flat floor. However, their parameters remain unknown.
The manufacturer prides itself on only using batteries with a prismatic structure that offers large amounts of energy in a simple and compact form. In the future, new batteries are expected to significantly improve range parameters. However, Lexus does not reveal exactly when this will happen.
