More elegant than ever, Lexus' four-passenger, entry-level coupe embodies the new design language and driving dynamics established by the LC flagship coupe. Inside, a race-inspired F SPORT package is available. Engineers have also improved the tires, suspension, aerodynamics and throttle response, making the car more athletic and responsive. When factoring in the two all-wheel drive models and the sportier RC F with rear-wheel drive, output ranges from 260 to 467 horsepower.
