Overview

Some sports cars impress with blistering performance, with brutal acceleration, precise steering, and otherworldly cornering ability taking precedence. The 2025 Lexus LC isn’t that car. Instead, Lexus’ stunning two-door takes a softer grand touring approach, with head-turning style, a richly appointed cabin, and a comfortable ride. Still, the LC is no slouch, even if it’s not as intense as rivals like the BMW M8 or Mercedes-AMG SL-class. A V-8 engine is standard in the LC500, pushing out 471 horsepower. That’s enough oomph for the Lexus to dash to 60 mph in 4.6 seconds, the 5.0-liter engine emitting a thunderous, gut-stirring noise in the process. For those who want more subtlety and improved fuel economy, Lexus also offers the LC with a creamy-sounding V-6 hybrid powertrain that is still plenty quick. A convertible is available too, exclusively with the V-8, for drivers who like to feel the wind in their hair. If you want your LC your way, the Bespoke Build program lets you personalize your luxurious two-door to fit your tastes. The Lexus LC isn’t the sharpest driving too, but it compensates with eye-catching lines and a relaxed, elegant personality that make the driver feel like a star.

What's New for 2025?

After Lexus overhauled the LC’s infotainment system for 2024, the sleek two-door enters the 2025 model year with minimal changes. The LC500 coupe gains new front and rear underfloor braces for added structural rigidity, and a new color called Iridium arrives, replacing Atomic Silver. The seats have revised upholstery and Lexus has reshuffled some of the options in the Bespoke Build package, including the convertible’s available red and blue soft tops becoming standalone options.
