2019 Lexus RC300h Takumi

[ThomasD94]

Hey Guys,

I picked up an RC300h Takumi edition on Friday, loving the car so far and getting about 42mpg.I love the red paint in the sunlight!

I made a first impressions video on it if anyone wants to check it out?

I loved the red on my previous RC

Love the subtle differences in the new 2019 model. I'm still finding differences and they are all positive, so far.

Lexus still haven't addressed the fact one cannot get into the car without getting soaked when the car has been parked in the rain! Water simply pours off the roof on to the drivers door sill and seat...

Lovely car.

I’ll be picking up my own F-Sport in early September after a wait of only six weeks as the result of my dealer’s interception of a cancelled order about to be shipped from Japan.  It is the same Sonic Titanium as my present one, which is fine since the combination with red leather objectively remains my favourite.  Regrettably, but not so much as to have been a dealbreaker or cause me an excess of suffering, it doesn’t have ML audio or the heated steering-wheel and card-key included in the Takumi pack in the UK and some other countries.

I have had my RC 300h Takumi for a month now and the sat-nav screne will not show any hold-ups ahead. Any advice please?

[NemesisUK]

Do you have traffic updates set to On in the Setup-Navigation menus?

[Maura]

Thank you. I've got into sat-nav  set up but can't see  traffic updates. Can you tell me how to find it.   Love the car except for this!
