Lexus LC 500 will be discontinued after the 2026 model year
Lexus confirmed on Feb. 3, 2026 that the LC 500 coupe and convertible will be discontinued after the 2026 model year.
Dealers were notified via an internal letter, and outlets including CarsDirect and Car and Driver have reported official confirmation from a Lexus spokesperson.
What happened: Lexus issued a formal end-of-production notice tied to the 2026 model year.
Who is involved: Lexus corporate, its dealer network, and reporting automotive media.
Why it matters: production will cease in August 2026, reducing new-vehicle availability, compressing the buying window for customers, and likely affecting allocation and resale values.
Dealers will need to manage remaining inventory and customer orders; collectors and buyers should expect a shorter timeline to purchase new examples.
