Lexus announces end of RC and RC F models after 2025, with last exclusive V-8 edition (Instagram @lexususa)
Lexus announced that the RC and RC F models, including the RC F with V-8 engine, will be discontinued after the 2025 model.
The standard RC will undergo a small visual update, with red brake calipers, while the RC F will be offered exclusively in a Final Edition version, which will feature details such as 19-inch BBS wheels, special paint, and carbon fiber components, including a spoiler, rear diffuser, and roof. The interior of the RC F will also have an exclusive red and black finish.
The RC F Final Edition keeps the essence of the Carbon Package model, including the 5.0-liter V-8 engine and a special badge on the engine. Although it’s not a new model, the RC F remains competitive, but Lexus faces competition in the luxury car segment, where the model is losing ground.
The 2021 version of the RC F, for example, went from 0 to 96 km/h in 4 seconds, but the model still doesn’t have the same popularity as other competitors in the same price range.
Prices for the 2025 models vary depending on the engine and drivetrain type. The RC300 with a turbo engine and rear-wheel drive starts at $46,445, while the all-wheel-drive version costs $49,135. The RC350, with a V-6 engine, starts at $49,375. The RC F Final Edition has the highest price, starting at $94,000, offering the 472-hp V-8 engine.
