LC CONVERTIBLE

Adjustable heaters built into the front headrests direct air onto your neck, instantly evoking a warm, soothing sensation. Designed to suit people of varying heights, they activate automatically, or manually via three heat settings.

Heated for colder driving conditions, the three-spoke steering wheel is covered in leather and fits snugly and comfortably in your hands. Integrated switches control audio, telephone, multi-information display, Dynamic Radar Cruise Control and Lane Keeping Assist.

Beautifully stitched leather seats offer the best possible combination of support and comfort. The LC Convertible‘s Chief Engineer was directly involved in developing the seat that was selected from 50 other seat designs.

The exclusive geometric effect on the 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 car.

Perfectly positioned for a relaxing drive, the high definition 10.3” central display can be operated by voice command or the Touch Pad located on the centre console. Its split-screen capability allows you to simultaneously access information, such as Lexus Premium Navigation and climate data.

You can also control the 10.3” screen using the Touch Pad mounted on the centre console. The Touch Pad interface has been designed to give you the intuitive feel of a smartphone, with operations such as scrolling, pinching or tapping.

In addition to an immensely strong passenger safety cell and Active Roll Bars, protection is provided by 6 airbags. The driver and front passenger are protected by 2-stage head airbags, as well as knee and extended side airbags. All seatbelts are also specified with pre-tensioners.

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.

Thanks to all main components - including the roof hydraulics - being set low, the LC Convertible boasts a lower centre of gravity than the LC coupé. Leaving nothing to chance, the engineers even specified an exotic combination of magnesium and aluminium to keep the roof frame’s weight to a minimum.

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.

At the wheel of the LC Convertible, it‘s reassuring to know that you’re driving in one of the safest cars ever built, equipped with Lexus Safety System +, which helps prevent rear-end collisions, lane departures and collisions involving pedestrians. Lexus Safety System + is standard on the LC Convertible 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.

To reduce noise and vibrations to a minimum, Lexus created a highly rigid chassis using ultra-high-tensile strength steel, lightweight aluminium and carbon-fibre reinforced plastic. For agile handling, our engineers then fitted rear suspension braces, underfloor strengthening and a torsion box behind the rear seats.

The LC Convertible’s flush door handles realise a smooth surface across the car body. As well as being beautiful, their aerodynamic shape contributes to increased driving refinement and performance.

Developed for the LC Convertible, this rear spoiler has been extended laterally, accentuating the wide stance of the flagship convertible.

Two hours from Tokyo on the Shinkansen bullet train, the Motomachi Plant is where Lexus handcrafted the LFA – one of the most heralded supercars ever built – and the facility where our Takumi master craftspeople now manufacture the LC and LC Convertible.
