2020 Lexus RC PERFORMANCE
311-HORSEPOWER1 V6
Boasting direct and port fuel injection and an awe-inspiring exhaust note reminiscent of the LFA supercar, the 311-horsepower1 3.5-liter V6 generates 280 lb-ft of torque1 at 4,800 rpm and propels the RC 350 from 0 to 60 in 5.8 seconds (RWD)1 and 6.0 seconds (AWD).1
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE
Throw caution to the wind. Or the rain. With the brilliantly engineered all-wheel drive system on the RC 300 AWD and RC 350 AWD, you experience control in nearly every driving condition. By monitoring current conditions, the system automatically distributes engine power between the front and rear axles to provide optimum traction and control—even in inclement weather.
260-HORSEPOWER1 V6
The RC 300 AWD pairs a six-speed automatic transmission with a 260-horsepower1 3.5-liter V6. Featuring Variable Valve Timing with intelligence, the engine is designed to provide added torque at lower speeds and greater horsepower at higher speeds. These refinements combine to generate 236 lb-ft of torque1 from 2,000–4,800 rpm.
TURBOCHARGED PERFORMANCE
The RC 300 RWD is powered by a highly responsive 2.0-liter, twin-scroll-turbocharged and intercooled in-line four-cylinder engine with direct injection. The surge of power in the 241-horsepower1 RC 300 doesn’t let up—thanks to the Lexus engineers who spent years researching, developing and refining its turbocharger. Generating 258 lb-ft of torque1 from 1,650–4,400 rpm, the engine is paired to a rear-wheel drive system and is easy on fuel consumption with a 30-MPG highway fuel economy estimate.2
EIGHT-SPEED SPORT DIRECT-SHIFT TRANSMISSION
Too much power? Too much control? No such thing. Own the road in a way that's totally your own with an eight-speed transmission (RWD only) and paddle shifters for optimum control. Delivering lightning-fast upshifts and heart-racing split-second downshifts with rev-matching, the paddle shifters in the RC help you realize the full potential of its 3.5-liter V6 or turbocharged engine. And, in the available Sport S/Sport S+ modes, the transmission is so advanced it varies its shifting based on G-forces. By detecting when the RC enters a curve, a lower gear is held throughout for optimal response when accelerating out.
PERFORMANCE DRIVING MODES
Whether you're looking for added exhilaration or taking a relaxing drive through the neighborhood, Drive Mode Select enables you to make your RC more responsive or efficient with a simple turn of a dial. Choose from Sport S/S+, Normal, ECO and custom drive modes
