Lexus is a brand long associated with luxury, but with the LC 500, the brand took on the challenge of combining luxury with a sporting edge to deliver a car unlike any other. The gentleman in charge of Lexus (Akio Toyoda) is a designer, not an engineer, whose heritage can be traced back to the original Toyota family. Driven by a desire to bring something truly new and visionary to the group of companies in his charge, having seen public reaction to the LF-LC Concept Car first revealed in 2012, he insisted the car make the transition to road-legal production. The remit: the car must be brilliant fun but retain daily driver practicality. And of course, it had to retain its futuristic looks. Not surprisingly, making the new Lexus all about the design left the engineers with quite a challenge and in the end, a team of 4000 designers, engineers and technicians were involved in turning the concept car into the Lexus LC 500 available today.<\/p>\n
