2025 Lexus LC Convertible Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2025 Lexus LC 500 is offered as a coupe and convertible in a single trim level that comes with ample standard equipment. Both body styles have a 2+2 seating arrangement, with a back seat far too small for adults. It should be noted the convertible's rear seats are even smaller than the coupe's. The LC 500 is powered by a 5.0-liter V8 that sends 471 horsepower to the rear wheels through a 10-speed automatic transmission.

The Lexus LC 500h is only available with the coupe body style and features a unique hybrid powertrain consisting of a 3.5-liter V6, two electric motors, an electronically controlled continuously variable transmission and a four-speed automatic. It's complicated! Total output is 354 horsepower.

Each LC comes standard with a comprehensive array of driver assist technologies. These include:

  • Forward collision warning with automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Evasive steering assistance (enhances the forward collision mitigation system with steering-based collision avoidance)
  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Lexus and the car in front)
  • Lane centering system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Lane keeping assistance (steers the LC back into its lane if it begins to drift over the lane marker)

Which LC trim does Edmunds recommend?

There are no trim levels, so your main choice comes down to the hybrid coupe, V8 coupe or V8 convertible. Beyond that, we would recommend the Dynamic Handling package if you're looking to the LC to provide an exuberant driving experience. Its limited-slip differential, upgraded brakes, rear-wheel steering and variable-ratio steering are noteworthy upgrades. Opting for a Bespoke Build would also be a good idea if collectibility or getting a higher resale price is important to you.
