When it comes to cross-brand badge-engineered cars, you'd typically expect the fancier, more expensive version to come with more stuff than its cheaper counterparts. More toys, more leather, more range... more car. In the case of the upcoming Lexus TZ, however, it's weirdly offering less when compared to its Toyota and Subaru siblings in one key area: horsepower.
