2021 Lexus LC 500h
The 2021 Lexus LC luxury coupe has swagger. Its styling is as bold as any Hot Wheels original. It grips the ground effortlessly and taps a powerful V-8 in its more powerful form. It's a grand touring car, with the emphasis placed on the grand. The 2021 LC doesn't do anything new aside from introducing a convertible variant. Power still comes by way of a 5.0-liter V-8 or a hybrid V-6. The V-8 makes 471 horsepower and 398 pound-feet of torque; the hybrid drops two cylinders and gains an electric motor for a total of 354 hp and 369 lb-ft. A 10-speed automatic transmission pairs with the V-8, while the hybrid employs a trick gearbox that combines a 4-speed automatic with a CVT for a total of 10 real and simulated gears. The fastest LC has a hardtop and V-8 and gets to 60 mph in 4.4 seconds
Fuel economy is best with the hybrid powertrain, which returns 26 mpg city, 34 highway, 29 combined. The V-8 coupe is rated for 16/25/19 mpg and the V-8 convertible for 15/25/18 mpg.
Standard active-safety equipment comprises automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and blind-spot monitors. Optional equipment includes a head-up display and an automatic parking system.
The LC has not been tested for crashworthiness.
