2021 Lexus LC500

About 2021 Lexus LC500

T stacks behind your head like a mechanically shuffled deck of cards. In the interest of weight savings and the preservation of trunk volume, the LC 500 convertible instead uses a folding soft top. But its design is not what you'd expect: Lexus has devised a four-layer top that hides the support bows to produce a smooth look. The extra layering is also said to make it quieter than a conventional soft top.

he 2021 Lexus LC500 will have extraordinary design detailing and interior materials. He attract your attention in every situation. It's much the same when you slide behind the wheel, where the watchword is luxury.

New Lexus LC500 will have V8 engine with 5.0-liter. The LC's grand-touring driving character makes you want to head out on a road trip using the scenic route. Only one thing is missing: a convertible top to bring the sights and smells of the outside inside.

That top is not a folding metal roof that

2021 Lexus LC500 performances

The new Lexus LC will reach In15 seconds, and speeds up to 31 mp. In this configuration, the 471-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 engine provides the soundtrack. Its intoxicating throaty exhaust note is an increasing rarity as the competition moves toward turbocharged engine, which tend to lack character unless they are enhanced by synthetic tomfoolery pumped in via the speakers.

We happen to like top-down driving in the evening and into the night. But in many drop-tops, such excursions can overly chill the participants. The LC 500 convertible has an enhanced climate control system that's set up to compensate in such situations. It automatically makes certain adjustments to airflow when the top is lowered. And in addition to the usual heated seats and steering wheel, the LC convertible has neck heaters and extra vents directed at the driver's hands.

Main competitors and prices

The BMW 8 Series convertible is configured similar to the LC 500 convertible, but it is an all-wheel-drive machine powered by a 4.4-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. Known as the M850i xDrive convertible, it costs upward of $121,000.

Second big competitor is Mercedes SL Class. He have a rear-wheel-drive machine available with three engines. The SL 550 has a 4.7-liter twin-turbo V8 and costs over $114,000, and at the top there's the AMG SL 63 with a stonking 5.5-liter twin-turbo V8 for over $155,000.

The Lexus undercuts all these V8-powered luxury competitors, and it offers a strong alternative to German styling.

The closest point of comparison for the LC 500 convertible might actually be the Jaguar F-Type, which offers three engines, a choice of rear- or all-wheel drive, and price tags ranging from about $65,000 to well over $125,000. You can get a lovely sounding V8 F-Type convertible for a bit over $90,000, and like the LC you'll have a questionable infotainment interface, small trunk and tight cabin with the roof up. But in the Jaguar, none of that matters as much when you have a chance to put the top down away from traffic — we're optimistic the Lexus can pull off the same trick.
