It's time for Lexus to
bring their hottest LC coupe to their home market of Japan.
Based on the LF-LC
Concept and underpinned by the GA-L platform, the luxury coupe comes in two
flavors - L Package and S Package, and can be had from 13,000,000 yen (US$ 113,465).
Toyota's luxury brand
has yet to detail what each trim level brings, but in the States, standard
features include LED headlights, Lexus Safety System+ bundle of active safety
equipment, premium audio system, 10.3-inch multi-info display, next-gen Remote
Touch Interface with touchpad, and others.
Customers will get the
LC 500 that uses a 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 lump that pushes 471 horses
and 540 Nm of torque to the rear wheels, through a 10-speed automatic
transmission.
Those looking into a
greener version of the car can go for the LC 500h. It uses a 3.5-liter V6
petrol engine, rated at 295 HP, and a 60 HP electric motor that work together
to produce a total system output of 354 HP. The zero to 100 km/h sprint takes
less than 5 seconds, making it 0.5 sec slower than its non-hybrid sibling.
