It’s an unprecedented feat of performance engineering that was forged from the asphalt up. With 467 horsepower,1 389 lb-ft of seat-pinning torque1 and not an ounce of restraint, this is the 2017 RC F. 2 RC F shown in Molten Pearl. // Options shown. 3 LEXUS F: A PEDIGREE FOR PERFORMANCE While Fuji Speedway is world-renowned for pushing the world’s best drivers to their limits, to Lexus, it’s a proving ground for F performance. And that’s only the beginning: Exhaustive testing, tuning and engineering continue at the most iconic and challenging tracks around the world, from Germany to the United States. These grueling development trials honed the most dominating Lexus vehicles ever built, from the LFA supercar to this, the 2017 RC F. Whether conquering the track or commanding the street, the result is nothing short of pure exhilaration. 4 Options shown. TRACK BORN 5 ASPHALT READY 6 With development processes culled straight from the paddock, the RC F commands the road with authority. Its highly rigid body is a product of specialized manufacturing techniques including high-strength adhesive bonding, laser brazing, and laser screw and multi-spot welding. And, to help ensure you get the most out of every G, massive cross-section side sills and stiff front and rear bracing combine with a wide wheel and tire assembly for optimal grip while cornering. RC F shown in Infrared.2 // Options shown. 7 MISSION: CONTROL The RC F was designed to forge a connection with the driver like never before. Low-set sport seats help place your hip point as close as possible to the vehicle’s center of gravity. For greater control, a thick-grip steering wheel feels as if it were molded to your hands. Large paddle shifters are positioned for faster gear changes. Even the distinctive pattern on the racing pedals plays a role. The size and position of the rubber pads are specifically designed to help grip your foot, lap after exhilarating lap. 8 RC F shown with Black leather interior trim. // Options shown. 9 HOLDS ITS LINE. AND ITS DRIVER. Experience control with confidence as you conquer every apex and curve. Embracing you from hip to shoulder, these exclusive sport seats feature a unique foam construction that’s designed to disperse body pressure, increasing support and helping to keep you firmly planted through turns. And, while the embossed F on the headrests is a striking design element, the stitching pattern on the seats was created to grab more than just your attention. Inspired by specially crafted athletic sportswear, the pattern’s shape and position were carefully calculated to provide greater muscular support and grip in high-G situations. 10 RC F shown with Circuit Red leather interior trim. // Options shown. 11 LOADED DNA RULING BY EXAMPLE: THE RC F GT3 Representing the introduction of Lexus into the international GT3 race circuit, the RC F GT3 concept boasts a modified version of the RC F’s powerful V8 engine, producing more than 500 horsepower. After exhaustive testing on tracks around the world, our commitment culminated with this: a production-ready RC F GT3 driven by the legendary Scott Pruett. 12 RC F GT3 concept shown. 13 BALANCE OF POWER Balance is essential to all aspects of performance. From the low center of gravity to the way inertial force transitions through the slalom. It was this commitment to optimal balance that led to the 467-horsepower,1 5.0-liter V8 with innovative components and lightweight titanium valves with high-strength, forged connecting rods. And, making our most powerful V8 also our most stirring, it emits a throaty, specially tuned engine sound as it screams to its impressive 7,300-rpm redline. Allowing the driver to control the power and communicate with the pavement, lightweight suspension materials such as forged aluminum were used to reduce unsprung weight. Engineered for superior handling, 70% of the double-wishbone front and multilink rear suspension components were designed specifically for the RC F. Its new F-Adaptive Variable Suspension features 30 levels of damping that can stiffen for enhanced response, based on the selected drive mode. Perhaps the greatest display of engineering is the ability to wield power precisely. The RC F was developed to deliver full-throttle exhilaration when you want it and a refined ride worth savoring when you don’t. In perfect balance. 14 RC F shown in Caviar (left) and Molten Pearl (right). // Options shown. 15 PERFORMANCE, EVOLVED. Once you experience the added exhilaration of the RC F Performance Package, there’s no going back. It features track-ready upgrades like a Torque Vectoring Differential and exclusive carbon fiber components fabricated at the same workshop used to develop those on the world-renowned LFA supercar. Offering distinctive style and the same structural rigidity as the standard steel components, the carbon fiber roof and active rear wing both help to reduce weight, lowering the RC F’s center of gravity for more responsive handling. 16 RC F shown in Ultra White. // Options shown. 17 EXHILARATION ON DEMAND TORQUE VECTORING DIFFERENTIAL Putting added control into the hands of the driver, the RC F offers a Lexus-first Torque Vectoring Differential. With three driver-selectable modes—Standard, Slalom and Track—the TVD responds in one-thousandth of a second to vary torque distribution according to cornering conditions. By sending more power to the outside rear tire, it helps rotate the RC F around the turn for enhanced agility, while also helping you to hold your line with unrelenting precision. 18 RC F shown in Ultrasonic Blue Mica 2.0.2 // Options shown. 19 DOMINATING DETAILS Developing a vehicle with the intensity of the RC F required that every aspect be engineered to perform. Massive Brembo® brakes,3 vented hood and front fenders, and a speed-activated rear wing add to the RC F’s vigor. Inside the cockpit, a raceready gauge cluster with multi-information display and a Remote Touchpad4 give power to your fingertips. 20 HIGH- PERFORMANCE EVERYTHING EVERYTHING Options shown. 21 CUSTOMIZABLE GAUGE DISPLAY REMOTE TOUCHPAD Keeping up with the rapid revs is no small feat. That’s why a digital tachometer was implemented in this race-ready gauge cluster. The easy-to-read, full-color LCD display allows you to quickly organize the data you need to help achieve optimum control. Readouts include performance data such as drive mode, gear position, G-force, lap times and customizable displays. Additionally, this in-dash display offers multimedia linkage so that you can view incoming calls, current song titles and more. Equal parts functionality and form, the available Remote Touchpad4 is more than a way to access multimedia, climate controls and available navigation. Featuring ample touch-surface area, pulsation feedback and intuitive operation via pinch, swipe and flick gestures just like your smartphone, the touchpad found in the RC F offers innovation at your fingertips. SEAMLESS PRECISION ADVANCED AERODYNAMICS STOPPING POWER Proving its form also has function, the RC F pierces through the air with both control and purpose. Its low-set front fascia channels air through the vented hood, as well as through signature F flared and vented fenders. When traveling above 50 mph, the RC F takes advantage of the air being routed over the vehicle by deploying the speed-activated rear wing for additional downforce. Reining back such a high-performance machine lap after lap requires serious stopping power. Get the control you crave, thanks to the huge 14.9-inch front brake rotors clamped by massive six-piston aluminum monoblock Brembo calipers.3 Featuring a fast-cooling, slotted rotor design and high-friction pads 3 for reduced brake fade, the RC F makes stopping almost as exciting as going. Almost. 22 Options shown. 23 LEXUS ENFORM THE NEXT LEVEL OF CONVENIENCE Available Lexus Enform5 elevates connected technology into a new era of concierge-level convenience.
