Lexus brings a special edition to the Dutch market for the LC Coupé and Convertible: the Hokkaido Edition. This limited edition has specific details for the exterior and interior. The price is not known yet.
The Hokkaido Edition takes its name from the volcanic island of Hokkaido in northern Japan, where Lexus also has a test track. The LC Hokkaido Edition is especially recognizable by the interior, where dark red upholstery on the center armrest and the armrest for the driver immediately catches the eye. Part of the dashboard on the driver’s side is also finished in that color, while the co-driver only looks out on black leather. Lexus thus creates two zones in the interior, as it were. The seats are upholstered in black leather, but the outside of the cheeks is also dark red.
Furthermore, the Hokkaido Edition has a unique molding inside and the analog clock next to the infotainment screen is framed with a red border. A numbered plaque in front of the gear selector of the automatic transmission emphasizes once again that you are on the road with a unique variant. On the outside, the Hokkaido Edition has a black grille and the housing of the rear lights is also black. The underside of the rear bumper has silver accents. The special edition rolls on new 21-inch alloy wheels and is available in the colors Flare Red, Sonic Platinum, F White and Graphite Black. The Convertible can also be recognized by a dark red hood.
Lexus makes a total of 80 copies of the Hokkaido Edition for the European market: 40 CoupĂ©s and 40 Convertibles. The CoupĂ© is available as LC500h and LC500, the Convertible is only available as LC500. Lexus will announce the prices at the beginning of April. Incidentally, Lexus is building more copies of this limited edition than the total number of LCs that the brand has delivered in our country since its introduction in 2017. That’s because there are only 61.
