A rare 2017 Lexus LC 500h is up for grabs on the used car market. With only 15,000 km on the odometer, this sports car is in great condition and is priced at 6.7 billion VND, which is more expensive than a high-end S-Class.
What makes this Lexus LC 500h even more unique is that it’s the only hybrid version in Vietnam. There are a few other Lexus LC models in the country, but they are all gasoline-powered (LC 500) and come in red or white. So, this particular car is a real head-turner.
Back in mid-2022, this very same LC 500h was advertised for 6.999 billion VND with an ODO of 3,200 km. It was then purchased by a car enthusiast in Can Tho who changed the license plate. After about two years and an additional 12,000 km on the clock, the car is now being sold for just 300 million VND less. On average, the previous owner only spent 25,000 VND per kilometer, which is equivalent to the retail price of one liter of RON 95 gasoline at its highest from October 2023 to the present.
Even after seven years since its release, this sports car still looks and feels brand new. The white paint job still shines brightly, and the chrome wheels and grille are in immaculate condition, with no signs of tarnishing or degradation. The current owner in Can Tho must have taken excellent care of this vehicle.
Some notable features of the exterior include the distinctive Lexus spindle grille at the front, LED headlights, and L-shaped daytime running lights that sweep elegantly to the side. The door handles are seamlessly integrated into the body, enhancing the sleek design and reducing drag. As a hybrid model, the Lexus logo features a green outline, and there is additional badging on the side of the car. The car sits on stunning 20-inch five-spoke chrome alloy wheels at the front and 21-inch wheels at the rear.
Step inside, and you’ll find that the interior of this Lexus LC 500h is still in great shape after 15,000 km. The red leather upholstery, contrasted with black accents, shows minimal signs of wear and tear, and the material remains taut. The rear seats, in particular, look barely used and are almost as good as new.
The cabin of the Lexus LC 500h is packed with features, including an 8-inch display behind the steering wheel that changes interface when switching drive modes, a 10.3-inch central infotainment screen with Apple CarPlay and Android Auto integration, and a touchpad controller next to the gear shift. The car also boasts a 13-speaker Mark Levinson sound system with a whopping 915W of power.
Under the hood, the Lexus LC500h combines a 3.5-liter V6 engine with an electric motor and a lithium-ion battery, delivering a total output of 354 horsepower. This setup enables the car to sprint from 0 to 100 km/h in just 4.8 seconds and reach a top speed of 250 km/h. Drivers can choose from six driving modes: Eco, Comfort, Normal, Custom, Sport, and Sport +.
