When it comes to boot space, the Lexus LC is a study in contradictions. On one hand, it offers a generous storage area for a sports coupe, clocking in at 172 liters on the current Lexus LC (Z10) model. And yet, as we embark on our journey through the Lexus lineup and look at some of its nearest competitors, it's clear that the LC is, in some ways, just as big a boot-space-headache as that bloke with the Beatles haircut you always see at parties.
As we only have the data on the current generation Lexus LC Z10 (2017-now), let us focus on how the boot space of this model fares in comparison to others within the Lexus family and its closest competitors. Think of it as a family reunion where everyone's comparing the size of their suitcases.
Within the Lexus line-up, our dear LC finds itself outclassed by most of its siblings. Despite being larger than the Lexus LC Cabriolet's boot (149 liters) by a narrow margin, it's nowhere close to the Lexus RC (423 liters), Lexus RC F (366 liters), and even the Lexus UX e (367 liters). When it comes to boot space in this family, the LC is like the black sheep who never quite got to be the prom king.
Stepping outside the Lexus household, the LC finds itself amidst a cut-throat crowd. When comparing against its rivals, the LC excels in trunk space compared to the sleek BMW i8 (154 liters) and the Maserati GranTurismo (260 liters). However, it lags far behind the likes of the Mercedes-Benz CLS (520 liters), BMW 6-Series (460 liters), and even the relatively diminutive Mercedes-Benz C-Class (355 liters). So, while our Lexus LC may not sweep the boot space awards at the end of the day, it's still a fascinating study in contradictions - a genuine lesson in life that sometimes, bigger isn't always better.
