2015 RC 350
Smooth power delivery; luxurious cabin; available technology; outright performance; supercar availability in the RC F
For 2015, Lexus introduces the all-new RC 350 luxury sport coupe. The 2-door coupe rides on its own platform and is not derived from a separate sedan; rather, it is a standalone model. A sexy, athletic shape is paired perfectly with a 306-horsepower 3.5L V6, which is itself mated to an 8-speed transmission in rear-wheel-drive versions. The 2+2 coupe is also available in AWD, which Lexus calls "all-weather-drive," and those cars feature a 6-speed automatic. Lexus claims the dash from 0 to 60 mph comes in just 5.8 seconds in the rear-wheel drive version, with a top speed of 143. The manufacturer also states an estimated fuel economy of 19 mpg city and 28 mpg highway for rear-wheel drive versions. Pricing for the rear-wheel drive RC 350 begins at $42,790.
The RC 350 F Sport adds an enhanced suspension, while the 467-horsepower RC F takes performance to a different level.
