ANALYSISHow safe is the 2025 Lexus Rz 300e?

The 2025 Lexus RZ 300e holds its Safety Index at 100/100 for a second consecutive year, matching the 2024 model's Exceptional score without any regression. What distinguishes this specific model year is the perfect composition of that index: crash protection contributes a full 70 of 70 points, avoidance technology adds 10 of 10 reflecting the standard fitment of forward collision warning, lane departure warning, and electronic stability control, and the defect record component delivers a maximum 20 of 20 points on the strength of zero recalls. The NHTSA crash-test record for this year is notable for its dual 5-star results in frontal and side disciplines, the two categories that account for the majority of serious injury events in real-world crashes. Overall and rollover star ratings remain not rated, so those dimensions cannot be evaluated from available federal data. The complaint volume of 2 unverified reports is extremely low for a vehicle in active circulation, and none of those allegations involve crashes, fires, or personal injury. Taken together, this model year's data profile is defined by consistency at the top of the safety scale and an unusually clean defect record for a relatively new vehicle.
