Lexus’s luxury sport coupe line, the RC, has downsized its engine capacity with its newest model. But that doesn’t mean the car is any less fun to drive.
But with our high car taxes, it only makes sense for Lexus to bid the 3-litre RC farewell and introduce the new 2-litre turbocharged RC Turbo to give drivers more value for money. Smaller engine size equals lower charges, but does that mean we’ll also get less of a thrill in our drive?
As we get into the driver’s seat, we keep our fingers crossed that it delivers the same excitement its predecessor did.
Thankfully, there is no disappointment to be had.
The Lexus RC200t, more affectionately known as the RC Turbo, graced us with its presence at the Singapore Motor Show in January. The car still maintains a confident stance, and bears a similar handsome design — with some tweaks made to the headlamps and grille — we were fond of in the F Sport.
