Say Hello to the 2026 Lexus LC 500 Convertible

August 25th, 2025 by

Lexus is refining its flagship convertible for 2026 with subtle updates and a new limited edition Inspiration Series, capped at just 350 units in North America. Finished in an exclusive Wind exterior color, this special model features Saddle Tan and White semi-aniline leather, blacked-out exterior elements, unique badging, and premium equipment.

The 2026 model year also marks the return of the LC Bespoke Build program, allowing buyers to customize performance, design, and interior details. Each Bespoke Build comes with a certificate of authenticity personally signed by Chief Engineer Yasushi Muto, underscoring Lexus’ commitment to Takumi craftsmanship and individual expression.

Under the hood, the LC 500 Convertible retains its naturally aspirated 5.0-liter V8 producing 471 horsepower and paired to a Direct-Shift 10-speed automatic transmission, delivering 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds with a throaty exhaust note tuned for open-air driving. The lightweight, four-layer soft top opens or closes in 15 seconds at speeds up to 31 mph, with four color options—including a Brown and Silver soft top available exclusively on the Inspiration Series.

Built at Lexus’ Motomachi Plant in Japan, the LC 500 Convertible benefits from revised suspension tuning, enhanced body rigidity, and seamless integration of intuitive technology, including refined controls and optimized climate management whether the top is up or down. Pricing starts at $109,200, with the first models arriving Fall 2025.
