So presents Lexus him, a cynic would ‘LFA’ however, in ‘Prius’ change. We explain to you why.

After the first official pictures of the bespoilerde RC F last week let Lexus now a little loose on his blue dikcoupé, among others, in the form of this illustration, that we are beautiful the essential parts can.

Also the maximum torque that the atmospheric 5.0 V8 out of blows is known, 520 newton-meters. The maximum power remains ‘more than 450 hp, a trick that, as we now know, in the hope that there is still a time can be written as the final numbers are 1% higher.

The rear-wheel drive RC F uses a Torque Vectoring Differential (TVD) with three modes: STANDARD, SLALOM and TRACK. The power is via a 8-speed Sports Direct Shift (SPDS) automatic transmission to the wheels steered. His spiritual predecessor, the IS-F had been a achtbak, but this will undoubtedly be something rapper to respond.

Why this car has a hint of LFA has you ask? However, the carbon rear spoiler comes directly from the now no longer produced sports car, but not literally of course. We recall, however, also Prius, because, believe it or not, the V8 runs according to the Atkinsonslag. That is, if you quiet feel. Touch the accelerator as it should be with such a car, and the block works according to the traditional ‘Otto’principle. Best handsome, if you ask us.

The RC F measures 4.705 mm x 1,850 mm x 1,390 in mm, with a wheelbase of 2.730 mm, and further, a barrel full of ‘objectives’: less than 1,800 kg, quicker to the 100 accelererend than the IS F (< 4,8 seconds), and more fuel efficient than the Lexus IS F (< 11.4 liters per 100km). It will be no wonder if they do this, of course, this happens. The top speed of 270km/h.
