Meet the Lexus RZ - the newest member of the Autocar long-term test fleet ⚡ Will_Rimell explains his early impressions

This is a key point for a car at this price point: it needs to be as nice as, if not nicer than, your lounge. Odd analogy, but you get my point. The infotainment, with its large, 14.0in screen, has a raft of features that we will dive into later.

The faux suede across every seat and touchpoint adds to the plushness. Then there’s the opaque glass sunroof that, as if by magic , switches to clear at the touch of a button. The interior is just such a good place to be. Good news, then? Well, ish: there are some caveats. The beeping is one. The RZ has a host of safety features, from speed limit monitoring and lane assist to driver concentration technology.

You can, as with most safety systems, turn these off but it must be done for each journey. This seems a world away from the if-not-safer Volvo XC40 Recharge, my previous long-term test car, which doesn’t feel the need to constantly bong at you as part of its uncompromising quest to keep you driving legally and safely.
