The Lexus RC F: By The Numbers

Kevin December 2nd, 2014

Lexus RC F Car & Driver

Car & Driver have gone technical with the Lexus RC F, measuring its performance and sharing how it performs against its competitors:

In a three-way drag race, the Bimmer walks away, with the [RC] F and RS5 keeping pace through the quarter-mile. By 130 mph, the RC F has eked out a nearly two-second lead on the RS5. Keep your foot in it and a governor abruptly halts acceleration at 171 mph.

With all the data crunched, the RC F proves no quicker than the old IS F. Nor is it slower, though. We recorded a 4.3-second zero-to-60 and a quarter-mile time of 12.8 seconds, identical to a 2008 IS F.
