Lacazette, 26, was long linked with a move to the Emirates before finally sealing a switch earlier this month.
The Gunners forked out a club-record £46.5m fee to sign the striker from Lyon.
He didn't take long to make an impression for his new club, scoring 15 minutes after coming on in the pre-season friendly win over Sydney FC on Thursday.
And Wenger reckons that goal will be the first of many for Lacazette in an Arsenal shirt.
He believes the France international fits their style of play perfectly.
“He is a player who has the style of play that we want to play,” Wenger told Arsenal Player.
“His technical ability, his capacity to combine with other players around the box…
"He’s not only a goalscorer, he can also provide.
"We want to play our football based on movement and he has that kind of quality.
“We are a team where pace plays a big part, and the modern game demands a lot of pace in transition from defence to offense.
"The quality of the runs are vital in that kind of game.
"The quality of his finishing is also absolutely exceptional. That’s of course important."
