Lexus LC
The Lexus LC is a majestic coupe that doesn’t seem to have aged one bit despite being six years old. The infotainment system, which was in need of a serious update, is getting a new 12.3-inch touchscreen for 2024. Under the hood, the 5.0-litre V8 and 10-speed automatic transmission (471 horsepower) can be replaced by a hybrid system featuring a 3.5-litre V6 and an odd combination of a CVT and four-speed autobox (354 horsepower).
