Lexus RC Is Dead After 2025, and the V-8 RC F Is Getting Axed Too

Lexus has announced that the RC and RC F models will be discontinued after the 2025 model year. This marks the end of an era for the RC F, which has been a staple of Lexus's performance lineup.

The RC F Final Edition will be available as a swan song for the model, featuring a 5.0-liter V8 engine that produces 467 horsepower. This limited-edition model will come with exclusive features such as 19-inch BBS wheels, a carbon fiber roof and spoilers, and an active rear wing. The RC F Final Edition will start at $94,000.

In addition to the RC F, the base model RC 300 and RC 350 will also be discontinued. The RC 300 is powered by a 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine, while the RC 350 features a 3.5-liter V6 engine. The RC 350 AWD F Sport will be the most powerful non-V8 RC model available, with 311 horsepower.

While there's no official word on when production will cease, the final RC and RC F models are expected to arrive at dealerships in the first quarter of 2025.
