Choose from four Lexus RC powertrains at our Lexus dealership in Birmingham. You may be drawn to the luxury coupe's responsive V6 engine power. Lexus RC 300 AWD models generate 260 horsepower and 236 pound-feet of torque through a 3.5-liter V6 engine. The same V6 engine is used in the Lexus RC 350, which jumps to performance outputs of 311 horsepower and 280 pound-feet of torque. Base Lexus RC models feature a 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine rated for 241 horsepower and 258 pound-feet of torque. There is the option of a 7,300-rpm redline via the Lexus RC F and its 472-horsepower 5.0-liter V8 engine that delivers 395 pound-feet of torque. A new Lexus RC earns up to 31 highway miles per gallon as you take I-59 to Gadsden or the Montgomery Hwy from Vestavia Hills to Hoover.
RWD and AWD Lexus RC configurations are available at the premier Alabama Lexus Dealer. RWD models for the new Lexus RC have an 8-speed Direct-Shift Sport Transmission with paddle shifters, resulting in lightning-fast upshifts as you accelerate down Tuscaloosa Ave. through Gadsden. Split-second downshifts with rev-matching are another perk. Select Lexus RC models for sale in Birmingham are equipped with an F SPORT Adaptive Variable Suspension. The new Lexus RC offers class-exclusive handling through available Dynamic Rear Steering. A rear-biased all-wheel drive system automatically distributes engine power from 30 to 70% between the front and rear axles. With up to a 50% max torque distribution, the Lexus RC provides optimum traction, no matter the Alabama road surface. Sport S+ and Custom are performance driving modes for the new Lexus RC. Performance-level stopping power stems from the Lexus RC coupe's 14-inch front brakes.
