About the Lexus RC XC10
The Lexus RC 300h, designated XC10, was launched as a hybrid alternative to German luxury coupés like the BMW 4 Series and Audi A5. The F Sport trim adds aggressive styling cues, including a signature spindle grille and L-shaped LED lighting, alongside an Adaptive Variable Suspension (AVS) system for improved handling. Its powertrain combines a 2.5-litre Atkinson-cycle engine with a 105 kW electric motor, delivering a smooth but relaxed driving experience typical of Lexus hybrids. While it lacks the outright performance of its turbocharged rivals, it offers exceptional cabin quality and low-speed refinement.
