THIS UNEXPECTED NEXT-GEN LEXUS COUPE WILL RETIRE THE LC AND RC // RIP V8

EV Channels Review

The video discusses the potential successor to the Lexus LC and RC, expected around Autumn 2025. While the current LC 500 is praised as Lexus's best, it's slated for retirement along with the RC. The new model is anticipated to be a hybrid, possibly a plug-in hybrid or BEV variant in the future, built on an improved L platform. It's expected to blend the luxury of the LC with the design cues of the RC, potentially at a lower price point. The reviewer expresses disappointment that the V8 will likely be phased out, but acknowledges the necessity due to emissions regulations. The new coupe is positioned as a more accessible luxury option, potentially named 'LLC' or similar, and will feature a 2+2 seating configuration. The video also touches upon numerous other upcoming Japanese vehicles, including the next GR86, Supra GRMN, new GT-R, Honda Prelude successor, and various Lexus and Toyota models.
