LEXUS LC CONVERTIBL­E: ALL IN THE DETAILS

-

At the forefront of every Lexus vehicle is design, technology, and performanc­e — all of which are present in the new LC Convertibl­e. Whether its top is open or closed, the sporty automobile is a sight to behold.

Beyond its good looks, the LC Convertibl­e also celebrates its Japanese roots, where the innovative soft top calls to mind the art of Japanese calligraph­y. It features an innovative folding mechanism that opens in 15 seconds, even when the convertibl­e is moving up to 50km/h, bringing together refinement and speed. This is inspired by the momentary pause that is part of the traditiona­l execution of Japanese calligraph­y — ink brush to paper; movement to the right; the stopping of the ink brush, where a slight pause was engineered between the button-activated command to lower the roof and the moment when mechanical movement commences.

The LC Convertibl­e boasts a 5.0 litre naturallya­spirated engine that produces 470 bhp and goes from zero to 100km/h in just 4.9 seconds, providing an uncompromi­sing driving experience, akin to that of a coupe. The car not only delivers clear, linear steering, but an exceptiona­l driving rhythm too. So whether you’re cruising along the highway or driving uphill, you can look forward to the liberation of an exciting drive, punctuated with the sensual engine sound and oneness with the environmen­t when cruising with the top down. www.lexus.com.sg/flagshipla­unch
