Lexus LC 500 is a luxury vehicle disguised as a supercar. After all, Lexus specializes in luxury vehicles after all. Let’s examine why the Lexus LC 500 is one of the best grand touring cars on the market.
The standard on the LC is what Lexus calls "Adaptive Variable Suspension," which is a fancy way of saying that you can adjust the suspension of your LC 500 to be anywhere between comfortable and exceedingly comfortable.
Normal, Custom, Comfort, Eco, Sport S, and Sport+ are the six drive modes available for the LC 500. The majority of these are self-explanatory, with the exception of Sport+. When in Sport+, the LC 500's 10-speed automatic transmission shifts faster between ratios, and the steering feel is altered.
The LC 500’s impressive performance will have you wishing your Macon commute was longer!
The Lexus LC 500 is propelled by a magnificent N/A 5.0-liter engine that generates 471 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque. All of this power is sent to the rear wheels, and this Japanese sport tourer can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in 4.7 seconds in the real world.
The LC is available with an electronically-assisted V6 engine that achieves a real-world rating of 35 MPG on the highway, which is a welcome alternative to the V8's 25 MPG highway rating.
According to Lexus, the LC 500h generates 354 horsepower and 369 pound-feet of torque. Despite having less horsepower than its V8 sibling, it achieves virtually the same 0-60 time of about 4.8 seconds.
The LC 500 has an electronically limited maximum speed of 168 miles per hour, which is quite impressive considering most modern cars are limited to 155 miles per hour.
What’s the inside of the LC 500 Like?
A 10.3-inch infotainment display that includes navigation, Android Auto, Apple CarPlay, Alexa, and a mobile hotspot as standard equipment. And on the inside, it has more space than any passenger could possibly need, but only for the front occupant. There is an existing back seat, but this ride is made for two.
The complete interior of the LC 500 is upholstered in leather and suede. You won’t find any cheap plastics here; its interior quality is comparable to that of the new BMW 7 Series.
Best of all, the interior of the LC 500 is available in a variety of colors and stitching patterns, particularly if you opt for the Bespoke Build LC 500. Ready to custom order your Lexus LC-500 for a thrilling drive around Forsyth and Perry? Come test drive it at Butler Lexus.
