RC F's High-Performance "Performance Package" Receives a Sportier Upgrade

Exclusive Interior Colors and Matte Black 19-Inch Forged Wheels Added
The RC F was born in 2014 as an "F" model, inheriting Lexus's racing spirit.
It is a sports model that pairs a 5.0-liter naturally aspirated V8 engine with an 8-speed transmission, and features numerous dedicated components such as performance-tuned suspension, brakes, and aerodynamic parts. It has also been a model that has driven the evolution of Lexus vehicles, including improvements in driving performance.
This time, the "Performance Package," a high-performance version model that applies technology cultivated in motorsports such as Japan's Super GT and the US Daytona 24 Hours race, will undergo partial revisions.
The update introduces a new exclusive interior color scheme of Black & Accent Blue, with the "F" model's signature blue used as an accent color on the front seats, seatbelts, steering wheel, and meter hood.
In addition, non-slip Alcantara, used on the front seats, is newly adopted for the steering wheel and shift knob, enhancing grip.
Matte black-painted 10-spoke 19-inch forged alloy wheels are newly offered. These are also available as an option for other RC F grades. Furthermore, a new design exclusive to the RC F has been incorporated into the scuff plates of all vehicles.
The price for the partially revised "Performance Package" is 14.49 million yen. Other models include the "Carbon Exterior Package" at 11.32 million yen and the basic model at 10.52 million yen.
