The Lexus RZ was introduced in New Zealand in April 2023 and Australia in May 2023. This ANCAP safety rating applies to all variants.

Dual frontal, side chest-protecting and side head-protecting airbags, as well as driver and front passenger knee airbags, are standard. A centre airbag, which provides added protection to front seat occupants in side impact crashes, is also standard.

Autonomous emergency braking (Car-to-Car, Vulnerable Road User, Junction & Crossing, Backover and Head-On) as well as a lane support system with lane keep assist (LKA), lane departure warning (LDW) and emergency lane keeping (ELK), and an advanced speed assistance system (SAS) are standard.
