AutoExec Summary
Luxury brand Lexus has announced that the radical steering yoke will eventually be available in Australia, but it will not be offered with the launch of the new Lexus RZ 450e electric SUV in mid-2023. The yoke, paired with a steer-by-wire system, offers advantages such as easier operation at lower speeds, better control on rough roads, and a clearer view of the instrument panel. However, the yoke must comply with Australian Design Rules before it can be offered. The exact timing of its availability in Australia is still uncertain.

Brands mentioned: Lexus, Toyota, Tesla
