2024 Lexus LC

Price Range: $98,450 - $101,750

Going on looks alone, the 2024 Lexus LC is a home run. Wide and low, its concept car styling and still turns heads even long after it was first introduced. The LC's performance is no match for any of its closest rivals but its well finished interior and relative value could be enough to attract buyers who would rather have the look of all-out performance rather than the performance itself.Read full review

Overview

Written by automotive expert Josh Jacquot

1/22/2026

The Lexus LC is a stunning grand tourer available as a coupe, convertible and hybrid. As the brand's flagship, the LC leans strongly into the luxury side of the sport/luxury spectrum with a rich interior design, a soft but controlled ride, and a heavily sculpted body. The cabin is a place where everything is nice to touch, though you might feel guilty doing so. Nothing inside the LC feels mass-produced. There's a sense of specialness and attention to detail here that's not present even in most Lexus models. And the only sound allowed to penetrate the interior is the muted wail of the 5.0-liter V8 (unless you opt for the hybrid). Every version of the LC is made for covering miles at high speed in tranquility and comfort. Few cars do it better.

Edmunds spotlight: New infotainment brings a much-needed update

The changes to the Lexus LC for 2024 are minor but meaningful. The biggest change, an updated infotainment system, makes a significant difference in the usability and look of LC's interior. The outgoing trackpad interface felt dated when it debuted about a decade ago and was heavily out of place in the otherwise ultra-modern LC. The new system uses a 12.3-inch touchscreen and shares control logic with other Lexus models. It is also much easier to use and includes a number of new features, such as over-the-air updates, a voice assistant, and additional connectivity options for emergencies and roadside assistance.

Competitors to consider

The truth is the Lexus LC really only has one direct competitor that aligns with its mission, size and cost: the BMW 8 Series. But if you shop beyond the sport-luxury coupe segment cars like the luxury-focused Mercedes-Benz AMG SL convertibles and the more performance-focused Porsche 911 emerge as alternatives. Even the Chevrolet Corvette, which is a capable grand tourer as well, might be considered.

Edmunds Expert Rating

edmunds TESTED

Driven, tested, rated by automotive expert Kurt Niebuhr

Average

7.6

out of 10

We drove the 2024 Lexus LC on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.

Performance

7.5/10

How does the LC drive? We tested an LC 500 with the V8 engine. The V8 sounds great but the competition has moved to turbocharging and more sophisticated transmissions. As a result, the Lexus LC is easily outpaced by all of its main rivals. Our test car reached 60 mph in a somewhat languid (for the class) 5.1 seconds. Braking and handling are a similar story. Holding 0.93 g around our skidpad and stopping from 60 in 113 feet are still good numbers, but are simply not good enough against the likes of a BMW M8 or a Porsche 911. The LC's tires don't produce the same grip as tires you can get on those vehicles but the LC is simply tuned more for comfort and eschews any real attempt to be more of a sports car.

There is some playfulness in the LC's chassis but other than the occasional blast out of a corner, the LC is far more enjoyable at a more relaxed pace. There's enough torque to deal with the conservative shifts from the transmission and all every gear change was dispatched quietly and smoothly. We'd strongly suggest shifting with the paddles every so often just to let the engine stretch out in order to savor the way it sounds.

Comfort

8.5/10

How comfortable is the LC? The LC's suspension excels at absorbing large bumps and smaller imperfections in the road, even with the big 21-inch wheels (part of our test car's Dynamic Handling package). The suspension insulates the cabin well enough from rough road surfaces without making the car feel disconnected from the pavement. We found the Sport setting to be an excellent balance between comfort and control, with Comfort being a touch too soft for our tastes. Depending on the road surface, we noticed some tire noise and some wind noise at highway speeds. Otherwise, the LC's cabin is quiet and serene and the V8 engine always seems to offer up just the right amount of snarl.

The only flaws we found were in the design of the climate control system and the odd placement of its air vents. While there are some physical buttons for major adjustments, some fine tuning could only be done through the center screen and the infuriating touchpad controller.

Interior

8/10

How’s the interior? The big news with the LC's most recent update is the new touchscreen interface. Gone is the awkward touchpad controller and in its place is a crisp-looking 12.3-inch touchscreen. It controls most of the car's functions and seriously improves its usability to the point that it's now just as easy to use as those from BMW and Mercedes.

Despite the low ride height and long doors, getting in and out is fairly easy thanks to a seat that's not overly bolstered and just about the right height. The power-adjustable steering wheel offers a good deal of adjustment and moves out of the way when the car's off. The driving position is excellent, with well-placed controls and a good view of the gauges and the road ahead.

Build & Price

Buying Tips for the 2024 Lexus LC for January

Shopping for a 2024 Lexus LC can be an exciting experience, and being well-informed can help you secure the best deal.

Buyers are paying around 8.2% less than the sticker price, translating to savings of approximately $8,266 for the LC 500h and around 6.7% less or $6,672 for the LC 500.
Currently, there are 22 used units available for the Lexus LC nationwide, with the lowest displayed dealer price at $97,788.
The LC model tends to sell slowly in the used car market, taking about 32 days on average before being sold, which may give you more leverage in negotiations.
We don't have any leasing payment information available at this time.

Technology

7.5/10

How’s the tech? The LC's infotainment system has a 12.3-inch screen and generally works well. You can use natural language voice commands and interface with the media, radio, navigation and climate control system.

Lexus includes a decent suite of standard driver aids such as traffic-adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assistance with lane departure warning. We'd like a higher quality backup camera as well as a surround-view camera system, but the combo of parking sensors with a standard backup camera works decently.

Storage

6/10

How’s the storage? The LC 500 has little usable space given its size. There's a woeful lack of small-item storage, not even a decent spot to store your phone for easy access. The 5.4-cubic-foot trunk is larger than a Porsche 911's, but the competitive edge ends there. It's still quite small and shallow, with a high liftover height that makes loading anything more difficult. The back seat is actually the most useful storage space in the vehicle.

The rear seats provide car seat anchor points for child seats, but access is difficult enough already. Fitting a car seat might be possible, but this Lexus is pretty much a two-person-only car.

Fuel Economy

7.5/10

How’s the fuel economy? The EPA estimates the LC coupe's fuel economy at 19 mpg combined. That's just about average for V8-powered competitors. Our car managed an impressive 25.8 mpg on our standardized evaluation test route, though conditions with weather and traffic were highly favorable during that drive. In general, we think you'll have little trouble matching the EPA's numbers.

Value

8/10

Is the LC a good value? Even though outright performance isn't the major selling point for the LC, there are quite a few other reasons to put one on your short list. There's a long list of standard features and the LC's build quality can still show up its German competition. Interesting shapes and textures abound and just about every surface is covered with leather, and most of the switchgear is metal or feels like metal. Sure, you can find more performance in this segment, but as pure luxury goes, it's hard to find a better deal in this class.

The LC's four-year/50,000-mile basic warranty and six-year/70,000-mile powertrain warranty are just above average for the class. Lexus includes four years of roadside assistance and a year of free maintenance.

Wildcard

8/10

If you want the look of a high performance luxury coupe but don't want to be burdened with an overly aggressive engine, brittle ride and all the other compromises than very often come with high performance capabilities, the Lexus LC coupe is a great option. Its low slung, wide, concept car styling set it apart from pretty much everything else on the road and the interior build quality further cements Lexus' reputation of excellence.

The downsides are that the LC will never keep up with your friend's BMW M8 or even a base Porsche 911 no matter how hard you try. But if you treat the LC like the Grand Touring coupe that it is, its comfortable ride, sonorous V8, relatively affordable price tag and guaranteed exclusivity will likely make you forget all about its performance deficit.

2024 Lexus LC trim level differences

The 2024 Lexus LC is offered as a coupe and convertible in a single trim that comes with ample standard equipment. The LC is a 2+2, which means it has rear seats but they are too small for adults. A 471-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 powers both body styles through a 10-speed automatic transmission. A 354-hp hybrid coupe fitted with a 3.5-liter V6 and two electric motors is also available. It uses a continuously variable transmission paired with a four-speed automatic. Together they simulate a 10-speed automatic. All LCs are rear-wheel-drive. Feature highlights include: Compare the 2024 Lexus LC trim levels in-depth.

Which LC trim does Edmunds recommend?

Because there are no trims to choose from among the LC models, you might consider the Bespoke Build option, which allows custom combinations of paint colors, interior trim, wheels, and soft-top color on the convertible.
