The RC F is the high-performance variant of the brand's luxury coupe in keeping with the brand's ethos. It is not as performance-focused as its rivals like the BMW M4 or Audi RS5. However, this is not necessarily bad, as the posh upgrades and creature comforts make it more of a daily driver. For 2022, the RC F will only be offered in the base model and the top-spec Fuji Speedway Edition, both with redesigned 19-inch wheels. Lexus will only build 50 units of the Fuji Speedway Edition, all wearing an Electric Surge blue exterior paint.

The range-topping luxury coupe does have a hybrid variant, but our pick would be the naturally aspirated option. That one puts out 471 hp and 398 lb-ft of torque, good enough for a 4.7-second sprint to 60 mph. For 2022, Lexus has made some suspension and steering tweaks that should help improve the handling of the luxury coupe. A Bespoke Build option (just for the naturally aspirated variant) will allow buyers to customize their cars. It introduces options like an active rear wing, a glass or carbon-fibre roof, blacked-out exterior trim, and an optional orange-coloured interior.

The LC500 gained a convertible variant in 2021, and for 2022, it also boasts all of the performance upgrades introduced for the coupe. The convertible features a power-retractable fabric top for luxurious open-air cruising, allowing unfiltered access to the soundtrack of the naturally aspirated V8.
