PERFORMANCE

HIGH BODY RIGIDITY

The LC’s driving dynamics benefit from an incredibly strong bodyframe and new lightweight suspension components. Non-deforming LC parts are made of ultra-high tensile strength steel, while lightweight aluminium is used for door, boot and bonnet panels and strong, weight-saving Carbon Fibre Reinforced Plastic for components like the roof and doorframes. This rigid chassis gives the LC pinpoint precision, accentuated by the low centre of gravity and near-perfect weight distribution.
LEXUS DYNAMIC HANDLING, FOUR-WHEEL ACTIVE STEERING

Available on Sport + models, the enhanced Lexus Dynamic Handling, in tandem with the improved Electric Power Steering, constantly computes and adjusts the optimum steering angles for all four wheels, making for a more enjoyable and dynamic drive.
ADAPTIVE VARIABLE SUSPENSION

For an even sharper and more refined drive, in response to your driving style and road conditions, the optimised Adaptive Variable Suspension controls the damping force of all four shock absorbers – managing an incredible 650 different suspension settings.

Powered by next-generation Lexus Multi Stage Hybrid, the LC 500h revolutionises the way hybrids perform. By adding a multi-stage shift device to its 3.5-litre V6 full hybrid powertrain, our engineers have created a breakthrough car that offers incredible linear acceleration, flexible power and addictive 10-speed shifts using ‘M’ mode – yet with all the smoothness and efficiency of a Lexus hybrid.

The LC 500 is powered by a high-revving 5.0-litre petrol engine that delivers 464 DIN hp/341 kW to the rear wheels. Developed at motorsport events like the Nürburgring 24-hour Race and Pikes Peak Hill Climb, this hand-built engine is matched to the world’s first 10-speed automatic transmission in a passenger car, to offer incredible acceleration and an awesome V8 sound.

SAFETY

LEXUS SAFETY SYSTEM +

Breakthrough Lexus Safety System + is standard on all LC models and includes a Pre-Collision System with pedestrian detection; Advanced Lane Keeping Assist to help you stay on course; Automatic High Beam for enhanced vision at night; and Dynamic Radar Cruise Control, which regulates your speed to that of the vehicle in front.
PRE-COLLISION SYSTEM

Millimetre-wave radar and an on-board computer calculate collision risk ahead. If the risk is high, Pre-Collision System alerts the driver and brake pressure is increased. When a collision is deemed unavoidable, the brakes will be applied automatically as necessary and the front seatbelts tightened. Furthermore, if an object (such as a pedestrian) is detected in front, automatic braking will activate at speeds between about 10 and 80 km/h to help avoid a collision.
LANE KEEPING ASSIST & AUTOMATIC HIGH BEAM

Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) uses a camera in the front windscreen to monitor your position in lane. If you start drifting out of lane, LKA will activate a warning buzzer and give brief corrective steering input. At night, Automatic High Beam uses the same camera as Lane Keeping Assist to detect oncoming vehicles and automatically dip the high beam headlights. This reduces the chance of accidentally dazzling other drivers and lets you concentrate on the road ahead.

In addition to an immensely strong passenger safety cell, occupant protection is provided by eight airbags. The driver and front passenger are protected by 2-stage head airbags, as well as knee and side airbags. Curtain shield airbags run the full length of both cabin sides. All seatbelts are also specified with pre-tensioners.

Activated by sensors mounted in the front bumper, should you collide with a pedestrian, the Pop Up Hood slightly raises the level of the bonnet to give more space between it and the hard components of the engine underneath. This reduces the risk of injuries to the pedestrian.

BOLD DESIGN

20" / 21" ALLOY WHEELS

Choose between 20” precision cast and machined, 5-quadruple-spoke noise reducing wheels, with a dark grey metallic coating or 21” forged 5-twin-spoke lightweight wheels that provide superior handling.
LED HOLOGRAPHIC REAR LIGHTS

Inspired by the afterburners of jet fighter aircraft, eye-catching taillights with a sculpted metallic frame project an infinite Lexus ‘L’ motif. Closer inspection reveals the boot lock integrated seamlessly in the rear light moulding.
GLASS OR CARBON-FIBRE ROOF

Creating a feeling of airy freedom in the LC cabin, chrome-plated mouldings along the side of the glass roof amplify the elegant coupé profile, the rear edges echoing the lines of a traditional Japanese sword. Lowering the LC’s centre of gravity, a beautifully finished optional woven carbon-fibre roof is manufactured at our Motomachi factory using a new resin transfer moulding process.

To reduce eye movement and potential distraction, all important instruments and displays are positioned close to your view of the road ahead. Controls you use frequently, like Drive Mode Select, are concentrated around the steering wheel.

Beautifully stitched leather seats offer the best possible combination of support and comfort. LC Chief Engineer Sato himself was involved in developing this new design that went through a total of 50 test cycles. The draping effect of the Alcantara® door panels and the arrangement of the perforations in the leather seat upholstery are further hallmarks of the attention to detail invested in this outstanding luxury coupé.

INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY

13-SPEAKER MARK LEVINSON®

Only available in Lexus cars, in 2022 Mark Levinson celebrates 50 years crafting some of the world’s best audio systems - a journey that began at the Woodstock festival, where a 22-year-old Mark Levinson built the mixing board for legends like The Who, Santana and Jimi Hendrix. This world-class 13-speaker Mark Levinson® Premium Surround system with GreenEdge™ technology is specially tailored to the acoustic properties of the LC cabin. Delivering a digital home-theatre experience, fidelity is further enhanced by Clari-Fi™ that rebuilds sound lost in MP3 digital compression.
MULTI-INFORMATION DISPLAY

To keep you up-to-date with all key driving data – such as safety warnings and navigation guidance – a colour multi-information display is integrated within the central instruments.
EXTRA-WIDE COLOUR HEAD-UP DISPLAY

Reducing the need to look away from the road ahead, selected driving data is projected in brilliant colour directly onto the windscreen via our latest Head-Up Display technology (174 mm x 48 mm).

Perfectly positioned for a relaxing drive, the high definition 10.3" central display can be operated by voice command or the Touch Pad. Its split-screen capability allows you to simultaneously access information, such as Lexus Premium Navigation and climate data. With Apple CarPlay® and Android Auto®, the LC allows you to easily display and access some of your smartphone’s apps on the screen.

Breakthrough ‘Climate Concierge’ automatically adjusts cabin, seat and steering wheel temperatures. Additionally, pioneering nanoe® technology releases negatively charged particles into the cabin to purify the air and effectively deodorise seats. They also have a pleasant, moisturising effect on your skin and hair.
