Built to take on the sports coupe segment, the RC series is Lexus’s attempt to blend luxury and performance into one package. In many ways, the RC achieves that with its potent powertrains and one of the most comfortable cabins in the segment. Sitting at the bottom of the range is the RC 300 trim with a smaller turbocharged inline-4 engine. Unlike most of its competitors, the RC takes a balanced approach to its performance, giving more priority to comfort and luxury, making it more of a fast cruiser than a corner-carving sports car. As always, Lexus is known for being the most reliable luxury car brand on the market and the RC continues that trend with no recalls or customer complaints so far. Let's take a closer look at the reliability of the Lexus sports coupe.

Should you buy the 2022 Lexus RC 300?

With no major issues to report, the RC 300 continues to hold its crown as the most reliable sports coupe in the segment.

Practicality is also limited compared to competitors. However, if reliability is your highest priority, then the 2022 Lexus RC 300 is the ideal choice in the segment.
