A host of intriguing new Lexus models have been unveiled at the ongoing Tokyo Auto Salon and of them all, the RZ Sport Concept is perhaps the most striking.

The car is based on the road-going RZ but has benefited from a host of changes to improve its performance while also making it look much more dramatic. It is bathed in a shade of white dubbed Hakugin and has a number of bright blue accents, including across the front fascia and the roof.

The RZ Sport Concept was built under the supervision of racing driver Masahiro Sasaki and also makes a bold statement with all of its custom body panels. The customizations to the body start at the front end with carbon fiber panels on either side of the matte black grille, a carbon fiber hood with large air extractors, flared wheel arches and aerodynamic louvers.

Modifications continue along the sides and include 21-inch Volk Racing wheels wrapped in 295/35 tires. The SUV has also been lowered by 35 mm and is sporting a set of matte black rocker panels. New flared wheel arches have also been fitted at the rear. Things then get really wild with the presence of a carbon fiber wing stretching out from the roof, a carbon fiber wing on the decklid, and a matte black lip spoiler. Lexus has also designed a bespoke gloss black diffuser for the electric SUV.

No photos of the SUV’s interior have been released but we’re told it is sporting a pair of bucket seats for the driver and front passenger.

In terms of power, the RZ Sport Concept features a pair of (201 hp) 150 kW electric motors, one at the front axle and one at the rear. No torque figure has been provided.
