"Even beginners can experience dynamic driving performance with a range of electronic aids."

The RC F is a high-performance coupé of the Lexus brand, announced at the 2014 Detroit Auto Show.

Lexus has incorporated the character 'F' in the names of their high-performance models, signifying the Fuji Speedway. The RC F is again a model that greatly improves upon the performance of the RC sports coupé announced at the 2013 Tokyo Motor Show.

The engine is based on the 5-litre V8 of the IS F, with new titanium valves, forged connecting rods and newly designed cylinder heads and exhaust system. Its output is 449 BHP / 53.0 kgfm, raising power by 32 BHP and torque by 1.5 kgfm from the base engine. This is combined with an 8-speed automatic transmission with paddle shifters.

The VDIM, which centrally controls vehicle dynamics, was also further refined for circuit driving when set to Sports Mode. Its electronic devices have been further advanced and the car is also equipped with the first torque vectoring system in the world to be incorporated into a front engine, rear-wheel drive. This is because one of the core development concepts was to allow veteran and beginner drivers alike to enjoy dynamic sports driving performance.

In terms of styling, its silhouette is common with the standard RC but there are additional aggressive details, such as the air outlets on the engine hood and at the rear end of the front fenders. On the trunk is a variable rear spoiler that changes angles automatically according to speed.

With only the LFA as the exception, this is the sportiest model in Lexus history.
