The Lexus LC

The LC is a thoroughly modern interpretation of the classic grand touring coupes from our past. It was designed and engineered from the onset to offer superb performance, adaptive dynamics, and a driver-focused cabin. The result is a 2+2 grand touring coupe designed for the discriminating enthusiast in mind.

EXTERIOR DESIGN

This grand tourer’s long hood design starts with Lexus’ signature spindle grille. This is luxuriously crafted onto a low and sleek body that stands above any coupe in its class. The LC embodies a taut design incorporating two full doors with hidden outside latches for access inside, a trunk to put your luggage in, condensed three-bulb LED daytime/nighttime lighting units that pave the way day and night, and a stance that is ready for action anytime.

Now, it comes in convertible form too. The lightweight soft top is lowered and raised quickly for you to enjoy the sunshine or the moonlight – whichever strikes your mood. If the convertible isn’t to your liking, then the sleek hard-body top of the usual LC model still offers plenty of style.

Interior Design

Step inside a cabin made for four people. Seats range from sport seating with perforated leather to supple aniline leather. The dashboard is crafted with accents that are coordinated with the color of the upholstery, in addition to several trims – including wood and carbon fiber trims – available in the LC.

The driver has an F Performance-inspired TFT instrument cluster that is designed to quicken the pulse by looking at it. An available touchpad-controlled screen is a hub for audio functions, a navigation system, and the connection to Lexus Enform for directions and the use of smartphone apps – projected on a 12.3-inch widescreen.

Choose Your Power Wisely

You have a choice between two LCs. The LC 500 Coupe and Convertible are powered by a 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8. With 471 horsepower, it offers no compromise on performance. The LC 500 has been timed at 4.4 seconds from 0-60MPH with a top speed of 168MPH. Channeling this power is a new ten-speed Sport Direct-Shift transmission, designed to work this power through the torque curve.

The LC is also available in a hybrid version – the LC 500h. It starts with a 3.5-liter Atkinson-Cycle V6 connected to the new Lexus Multistage Hybrid system. The system has two electric motors, connected to a 10-speed automatic transmission in series with an electronic continuously variable transmission – a parallel system designed explicitly for hybrid drivelines. Overall, the system puts out 354 total system horsepower, while achieving a 0-60 MPG time of 4.7 seconds. Moreover, it’s fuel efficient, with an estimated 33 mpg highway.

To enhance your driving experience, a drive mode selector knob can switch the LC from Eco to Sport, depending on the kind of driving preferred. This is available in the Sport S+ setting, where engine, transmission, steering and suspension dampening are dialed in for a canyon-carving driving experience.

Safety Always

A Lexus is built to be safe. Active safety features include a Pre-Collision System with Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, Lane Departure Alert, backup camera, Intuitive Parking Assist, Blind Spot Monitor with Rear Cross-Traffic Alert, and Smart Stop Technology.

To further enhance these technologies, Lexus Enform Safety Connect is available to connect with Lexus if an issue arises with the LC. Enform can also be monitored through a smartphone with its own app.

Make Your Choice

Pricing for the 2023 Lexus LC lineup starts at $94,600. In addition, there are packages you can add on to your LC, like the Touring package for as low as $2,540, which adds an Alcantara-trimmed headliner and a heated steering wheel, or the Dynamic Handling package (MSRP $9,570 on LC 500, $6,850 on LC 500h) for features like performance brake pads and a Torsen limited-slip rear differential.
