2021 Lexus LC 500 Convertible Inspiration Series: Limited Edition Luxury
From the popularity of the much-loved Lexus LC 500 coupe comes the new, sleek Convertible. But this isn’t just the same model with the top cut off. The LC 500 Convertible has been designed from the top, down using computer-aided engineering (CAE) to provide greater chassis rigidity, with the addition and relocation of various structural braces. The fine-tuned suspension and performance dampeners are specially designed to complement the Convertible and enhance ride comfort.
The LC 500 Convertible is designed to bring you the same dynamic and luxurious driving performance that you loved about the coupe, and deliver it in a vehicle that allows you to experience the joy of driving with the top down.

Structural Blue
The incredible vibrant blue of the LC is inspired by the bright jewel appearance of the Morpho butterfly. A fascinating feature of the butterfly’s wings is that, despite its appearance, the wing’s surface doesn’t contain any blue scales. The color seen by the human eye is the result of light interference on the microscopic lattice surface structure its scales create.
After 15 years of collaboration with California-based VIAVI Solutions INC., Lexus is the first in the world to have created pigment that matches the Morpho butterfly’s magnificent blue.
The most remarkable feature of this iridescent blue is that, like the butterfly, the pigment doesn’t contain any blue material. The paint is structured to only reflect blue light and is optimized to reflect almost 100% of the color, where conventional pigments can only reflect less than 50%.
Sophisticated Soft Top Design
The soft-top design means that the LC Convertible keeps its sleek lines, without costing the same amount of boot space that a bulkier hard top occupies. The innovative design of the folding mechanism allows the roof to be closed in only 15 seconds, and it can be opened or closed at speeds of up to 31mph.
Enjoy Your Ride, Whatever The Weather
The HVAC system of the LC 500 Convertible is designed to adjust temperature whether the top is raised or lowered. You can lower the roof and stay warm in cooler weather with the Lexus Climate Concierge. With built-in Upper Body Heating, it automatically manages your air-conditioner and seat heaters. The LC 500 Convertible even comes with a neck heater and a steering wheel heater, so you can enjoy the freedom of a topless car and still stay toasty in the winter months.
Seamless Device Integration
Equipped with a 10.3-inch high-resolution split-screen multimedia display, the LC 500 Convertible allows integration with Apple, Android, and Alexa.
Gaining access to your devices through the vehicle’s multimedia systems means that you can use voice activation to request information, navigation, send messages and even listen to music, podcasts, or audiobooks while you drive.
The Alexa integration through the Lexus+Alexa app allows you to access thousands of the same functions you use from your home, all activated by your voice.
