I know its not the most powerful or performance driven Lexus you can buy, but it certainly appeals to some buyers. It will couple a 2.5-liter inline-four making 176 hp with an electric motor. The transmission will be continuously variable, and it will be offered around the same time as the other RC variants in the summer of 2014.

Its a far cry from the 450 hp of the RC F, but it could still be fun. What do you think?

I think the RC300h will only be available in the European market, right guys?

I don't know about that, to me it seems like it will, they have already sold vehicles here with hybrid powertrains. If there's a diesel engine option i can see that being a euro-only model

Very Interest in the upcomin RC350

I have a 2011 CT200h premium in Starfire Pearl. The car is fun and gets great gas mileage. After 3 years I find the RC350 coupe very appealing, A much better looking car. I've adjusted to the CVT and gladly exchange the improved gas mileage with an electric hybrid engine over the mild decrease in acceleration. Actually in sport mode the hybrid is very responsive and comes in handy for highway driving.
If the new RC350 is priced in low upper 30's to low 40's I would be in the market. I think the car looks great. I wonder what the exterior/interior combinations will be?

the mileage difference between the CT200h and RC350 are huge

you are moving to a guzzling V6.

but apart from that

the red is gorgeous <3
