How the specs compare

This comparison sets the 2024 Lexus RZ 450e against the 2025 Volvo V60 T8 Recharge. They sit in different categories — SUV and wagon — which makes the packaging figures as important as the headline performance. One uses a battery-electric powertrain and the other a plug-in hybrid system, so range and consumption figures need to be read in that context.
