Lexus is about to reveal the RZ450e F Sport Performance, a production model inspired by the audacious RZ Sport Concept revealed at the Tokyo Auto Salon last year. Limited to just 100 units, this striking EV is set to hit the market in March.

The production model features a front fascia with a carbon fiber splitter painted blue and a carbon panel beneath the headlights, mirroring the concept's wild design.
