Lexus will introduce a new special edition
RC at the
Geneva Motor Show next week, which will hit the UK market in early May.
Called the RC 300h F Sport Black Edition, a number of stealthy styling additions single it out from the regular RC coupe, while it’s based on the range-topping F Sport Premier specification model.
Given that the Black Edition is based on the range-topping Premier model, standard equipment includes a 17-speaker Mark Levinson surround sound system, plus a 10.3-inch infotainment screen complete with built-in navigation. Driver assistance highlights include a reversing camera, blind spot assist, rear cross traffic alert, rain-sensing wipers and full LED headlights.
Things are unchanged under the bonnet, and the regular 300h hybrid powertrain is present and accounted for. That means a 2.5-litre inline four-cylinder petrol mated to an electric motor, developing a round total of 220bhp. Lexus claims the system is capable of returning 56.5mpg and 116g/km.
The RC 300h F Sport Black Edition goes on sale in Britain on 1 May, priced from £45,165.
