How does it drive?

To recap

While it’s visually arresting and a general rarity on UK streets, the Lexus RC 300h’s aesthetic appeal and comfort aren’t quite enough to overcome its hard-to-control infotainment system, higher price point than the coupe competition, plus that the hybrid component doesn’t add a great deal of worth to the drive.
