About the new LC partial improvement
Lexus made some improvements to the new LC (LC500h/LC500) and announced it on September 30, 2021. It will be released after November 2021. In this partial improvement, we aimed to further deepen the ride quality and improved the basic performance. The specifications of the coil springs and stabilizers and the control of the shock absorbers have been optimized to improve the feeling of contact with the tires, the linearity of the vehicle response to steering input, and the controllability in high cornering G regions.
Vehicles equipped with the Lexus Dynamic Handling System (LDH) have optimized VGRS and DRS controls to achieve good response and agile driving. From low speeds to high speeds, by balancing the optimization of the vehicle posture and controllability, it has improved the fun to operate and the sense of stability.
