The 2027 Lexus TZ opens a new chapter for families looking to combine space, comfort, and electric driving. As Lexus’ first fully electric three-row SUV, it introduces an approach to luxury focused on the well-being of every passenger. At Boulevard Lexus in Québec City, this upcoming model will be particularly appealing to drivers who want to transition to electric mobility without sacrificing a versatile interior. Several features have already been announced, while final Canadian configurations have yet to be confirmed. Here is what you need to know before its arrival.
The 2027 Lexus TZ features a fully electric powertrain with front and rear electric motors paired with the standard DIRECT4 all-wheel-drive system. This technology adjusts torque distribution according to driving conditions and driver inputs. Its purpose is to promote smooth acceleration and balanced handling through corners. The electric drivetrain uses reduction gears rather than a conventional multi-speed automatic transmission, contributing to seamless power delivery. However, the final horsepower and torque figures for Canadian models remain to be confirmed. For drivers in Québec City, this configuration offers advantages for everyday transportation, although choosing proper winter tires remains essential.
Lexus has also announced optional rear-wheel steering, designed to make maneuvering an SUV of this size easier. The suspension features MacPherson struts at the front and a multilink configuration at the rear. The regenerative braking system offers five levels of deceleration, allowing drivers to adjust energy recovery according to their preferences. On the hilly roads surrounding Québec City, this flexibility could contribute to a more enjoyable driving experience, although actual driving impressions will have to wait until a road test becomes available. In the meantime, you can explore our selection of new Lexus vehicles to see how the TZ could fit into your next vehicle purchase.

Two lithium-ion battery capacities have been announced for the 2027 Lexus TZ: 77 kWh and 95.8 kWh. Driving range could reach approximately 480 km on certain configurations, according to the manufacturer’s estimate. This figure reflects favourable conditions and should not be interpreted as a guaranteed winter driving range. In Québec City, cold temperatures, cabin heating, driving speed, and road conditions must all be considered when planning longer journeys. A trip to Charlevoix, for example, will require different preparation than a typical day of commuting between home, work, and family activities. Choosing the appropriate battery will depend on both your regular driving distances and your access to charging infrastructure.
Because the 2027 Lexus TZ is fully electric, it does not consume gasoline. Its efficiency will instead be measured in kWh/100 km, with official Canadian figures still to be confirmed. It would therefore be premature to calculate precise annual savings. Actual operating costs will depend on annual mileage, electricity rates, and the proportion of charging completed at public stations. The Canadian model is expected to feature a NACS charging port and battery preconditioning functions, which help prepare the battery temperature before charging. For households equipped with a residential charging station, plugging in the vehicle overnight could significantly simplify daily transportation and charging routines.

With an announced overall length of 5,100 mm and a wheelbase of 3,050 mm, the 2027 Lexus TZ emphasizes a spacious and welcoming cabin. Second-row captain’s chairs and a panoramic roof contribute to an open, comfortable atmosphere. Power-operated leg rests and ventilated seating are among the announced features, depending on the selected configuration. Preliminary cargo capacity is rated at 390 litres behind the third row. Folding the second and third rows increases available storage space, although maximum Canadian cargo capacity remains to be confirmed. Whether transporting a stroller, sports equipment, or luggage, an in-person demonstration at the dealership will help families assess the practicality of the interior layout. The announced towing capacity reaches 3,500 pounds, subject to applicable conditions and specifications.
Before choosing your 2027 Lexus TZ configuration, consider how your family typically uses its vehicle. The frequency of longer trips, the number of passengers, and the amount of equipment transported are just as important as the specifications listed on paper. A family primarily driving around Québec City may prioritize different features than a household that regularly takes weekend getaways. Taking the time to evaluate these needs will help you select a configuration that suits your everyday lifestyle.
The following table compares the two announced battery capacities without assuming final Canadian trim names or equipment availability.

The 2027 Lexus TZ introduces a new generation of Lexus Interface, featuring an improved voice assistant, route-planning tools, and charging management functions. Lexus Safety System+ 4.0 is also among the announced standard features. This suite brings together several driver assistance technologies, including collision prevention functions and on-road driving assistance systems. The exact availability of individual features and any applicable subscriptions will need to be verified according to the selected Canadian configuration.

The 2027 Lexus TZ is expected to launch toward the end of 2026. The timeline for initial deliveries at Boulevard Lexus will depend on vehicle allocations and available configurations. For the latest information regarding local availability, you can contact our team.
No. The 2027 Lexus TZ is a fully electric SUV that requires charging. This distinguishes it from Lexus hybrid and plug-in hybrid vehicles. Choosing between these technologies will depend primarily on your driving habits and your ability to charge your vehicle regularly.
The estimated range of up to 480 km does not represent a winter-specific measurement. Actual driving range will vary depending on outdoor temperature, cabin heating, and driving habits. When preparing for a trip, it is recommended to include an appropriate charging margin based on weather conditions and the distance you plan to travel.
